Is Center Spectre EVO Worth Doing?
Absolutely—it's extremely good value. The midfielder upgrades are all on core stats, and you can choose different upgrade paths based on your squad's needs.
If your team is lacking a fairly strong midfielder, this Evolution is well worth considering—it costs far less than buying a midfielder outright.
