Emile Smith Rowe: FM22 Wonderkid Review
Emile Smith Rowe is one of the most promising wingers in Arsenal. His pace, dribbling, flair, and technical ability make him an excellent unpredictable winger who will easily go past his man and a nightmare to mark in 1 on 1 situations. His versatility is also a big plus as he can play comfortably down both the wings.
In the autosave, Emile Smith Rowe has stayed at Arsenal throughout the 10 years and is one of the more important players at the club in 2031. His performances have been steady, albeit not explosive in the autosave in line with the mediocre league positions Arsenal have finished in. In one of his best seasons, Smith Rowe has contributed 10 goals and 7 assists in the league in 2025-2026, which also incidentally is one of the seasons where he has been more of a regular starter.
His average ratings have been steady throughout the autosave, and under a human manager with better tactics, Smith Rowe can be an even better player. Smith Rowe can be a popular wonderkid in FM22 this season, especially for managers who handle English clubs.
