Voordelen

Kimmich feels surprisingly quick in-game, especially when tracking back or pressing higher up the pitch.

One of his standout traits. Kimmich delivers pin-point passes across all ranges, whether it's short, quick passes to maintain possession or long driven passes to switch play.

His high balance and tight ball control make it easy to maneuver in tight spaces, which is crucial when recycling possession or evading aggressive pressing from the opponent.

As expected from a CDM, his tackling is on point. He positions himself well and breaks up play with smart interceptions.

His defensive awareness helps him stay alert and in the right place, cutting off dangerous plays before they develop.

Kimmich is strong in challenges and doesn’t get pushed off the ball easily. His stamina is especially noticeable.

Nadelen

While high/high work rates can be beneficial for all-around contribution, for a CDM, it can be a double-edged sword.

Kimmich tends to push forward quite often, leaving potential gaps in midfield during counterattacks.

Though a 4-star weak foot is decent, it's still not perfect. Kimmich can sometimes be in goal-scoring positions due to his high attacking work rate, and that's where a 5-star weak foot would make a difference.

3 star skill move, this limits his ability to get out of tight situations.

Eindoordeel

Joshua Kimmich is an elite-level central defensive midfielder who excels in controlling the tempo of the game, breaking up opposition plays, and contributing in both halves of the pitch. He’s fast, technically sharp, and physically strong, making him a reliable figure in any midfield setup.
