Separate midfield potential from current readiness
Selected DM, MC or AMC positions, age up to 21, PA 140+ in this career and CA 65+ define this list. It ranks by PA, then CA; a high PA can accompany a player who is not ready for your first team. Compare passing, vision and technique for creative demands, and stamina, work rate and defensive attributes for other tasks. The position links keep the age, PA and CA thresholds while narrowing to one midfield group. Multi-position players can appear in several groups; their counts do not add up to a count of unique players.
