87 - IF
Honestly the best defender in the game. I bought him because I felt the same about his IF last year, and I was happy to see that he was just as good this year. He is honestly perfect in every attribute; his pace is beautiful, especially when the defender manages to get past him, his speed to catch up to the player is amazing. He surprisingly wins aerial battles for me, despite his height. His defending and physical are, of course, great. If you want a defender who can toss a long ball for a counter attack, Azp is that guy. I play him on an anchor and I haven't thought about taking it of since.

This guy is INSANE! No joke, he´s the best defender out of the "normal" ones. As a non-Icon centerback his price isn´t too high. Yes, 300k on PS4 is pretty much. For a defender its WAY too much would you think. But NO: This card is damn great and the only player in my Team i never had doubts about. I would never ever remove him again, he´s just outrageous! His pace is enough to catch up to nearly every attacker. Also he is fast enough to close the room if a Bale sprints down the wing. His tackles are pure quality. Positioning: 10! The only con i can see is his height. He looses many headers. BUT he is able to defend crosses somehow. Don´t ask me how. He just DOES it!
.
And now the best:
His longshots. No joke.
If i don´t hit the corner directly (Which happens 99,9) i try to get the ball to Azpi who waites outside the box. After getting the ball to him there are 2 options:
- Shoot
- Get fouled
If you shoot, the shot is AT LEAST hardcore dangerous or even in.
This guy is simply god-like! The best non-Icon center back in the whole game. And i had nearly everyone.

Strenght
Heading (IF he gets the ball to the head, its 7/10 in)
Price (expensive, but definitely worth it)
Overall amazing defender with high pace and amazing defending and physical stats. His dribling and passing are ok but overall he will help you in the back a lot.
Amazing Pace
Use the Shadow card on him for better results
Great physical
Great Defending Stat
Good for stopping those pacey rivals
Ok passing
Ok dribbling
Not really good for headers.
