Szczęsny FC 28 Review — Reliable Shot-Stopper
Szczęsny is the best budget GK option in FC 28. At under 8k, he offers 6'5" height, solid reflexes, and good positioning. He won't make highlight-reel saves every game, but he's consistent and rarely makes mistakes. The perfect starter keeper.

Final Verdict
Rating: 7/10
Szczęsny is the perfect placeholder GK. He's cheap, tall, and reliable. He won't single-handedly win you games like Courtois might, but he rarely costs you goals either. Use him in La Liga or Poland squads and save your coins for outfield upgrades. When you're ready, upgrade to Courtois or Ter Stegen.
