Why is Vieira so expensive?

Got him in pick. His stats seem somewhat good, at least for a holding cm, but he doesn’t have cdm position and lack in passing, shooting and dribbling.

His height (6’4") and defensive stats/playstyles makes him seem like quite the precense in midfield, though I don’t know if that makes up for his lackings. Haven’t had time to try him yet.

So what makes him so relatively expensive?
