I think u should add list of best players for traits
“Hello Mr Believer, I truly appreciate the effort you put into Mr Believer’s Hub — the guides, redeem codes, and resources are extremely valuable for the community. I just have a humble suggestion: it would be fantastic if you could also include a dedicated section on Player Roles (Captain, Free Kicks, Corners, Penalties, etc.) and guides on how to optimize them. This addition would make the website even more complete and insightful for players. Thank you for your hard work and dedication! 🙌”
