Ventajas

Antonio Rüdiger stands out as one of the fastest center-backs in the game. With 120 acceleration and 124 sprint speed, he can recover quickly, track attackers on counterattacks, and dominate in fast-paced situations. This combination of acceleration and top-end speed makes him invaluable in any defensive setup.

Rüdiger is a defensive powerhouse. His attributes in marking, standing tackles, and sliding tackles make him a nightmare for attackers.

Add in defensive awareness and his ability to read the game, and you've got a CB who is always in the right place at the right time.

His heading and jumping are also stellar, allowing him to dominate aerial duels on both ends of the pitch.

Standing tall at 6'3" (190 cm), Rüdiger is a commanding figure in the backline. His height, paired with his physical attributes, makes him a dominant force in aerial challenges.

Furthermore, his strength and aggression ensure that he can outmuscle most forwards and impose himself in physical battles.

Contras

Reactions (Minor Drawback): While his reactions are slightly lower compared to other top-tier CBs, it's a relatively minor issue. It’s not a dealbreaker and won’t significantly affect his performance, especially given his excellent pace and defensive stats.

Alternativas

Veredicto final

Antonio Rüdiger’s 109-rated CB card is a top-tier option for any squad. His pace, defending, and physical dominance make him an ideal fit for aggressive defensive styles or counterattacking setups. While his reactions could be slightly better, this is a negligible drawback in the grand scheme of things. If you're looking for a center-back who can handle high-pressure situations, shut down opponents, and contribute to set pieces, Rüdiger is worth every coin.
