81 - SBC
After looking for an alternative Bundesliga LB to Alaba, I thought Wendell would be a good shout. Wrong. Honestly, there was not much difference at all compared to his normal card.
Pace
Quite good. I used him with a sentinel and still managed to make good runs down the wing, beating quick fullbacks. However, H/M work rates meant he was caught out of position lots.
Shooting
Yuck
Passing
Passing was not bad. He was able to make nice 1-2 passes consistently down the wing. Crossing was decent.
Dribbling
Felt quite agile with decent ball control at times.
Defending
Made a few good tackles when he was in position. A bit inconsistent
Physical
I felt this was one of the biggest let down to Wendell's card as he was not effective in regaining position due to his strength. Stamina was another let down as he would run up the field and i would have to manually bring him back down the pitch. Could win battles in the air from goal kicks against small wingers. However, played one game where the opponent's Messi scored a hatrick of headers, as he out jumped Wendell on all occasions.
He seemed a little faster but all in all was just a waste of 2 swap items. I Due to Wendell's quite high aggression, he likes to give the opponent a good nudge, but due to his average strength, struggle to push even weak wingers off the ball. I would not recommend doing him as you may as well stick with regular Wendell, or pay up a bit more for Alaba.

Needed to buy him because i am using him alongside TAH and FAHRMANN in my defensive line.
Was using his normal card in the weekend league band in first league for about 120 games before i got this upgrade and he NEVER LEFT ME DOWN ( this one is even better )
So then i saw that this really cheap SBC and completed him with negredo and llorente , due to the fact that you only get 12 swap players at total and a lot of them are really bad i instantly did him !
I put the SENTINEL chemistry style on him to boost his def and physis because he already has got enough of pace , dribbling and passing
He just feels as good as dudes like Alex Sandro , Rose and other good LBs on this game, so if you got space for him in your bundesliga or brazilian team TRY HIM OUT
- PACE ( feels a little bit better than on his normal card , he catches every fast winger or striker when he gets the chance to )
- DRIBBLING ( really nice for a LB like him and doesnt feel like 82 at anytime (imo)
- DEFENDING ( feels just as good as dudes like alex sandro, rose and all the other cheaper LBs in this game )
- feels a bit weak but not really often
