92 - TOTS
5.0
Super Sub of dreams
By ET318, 07-06-2020

I packed this guy in one of the untradeable SBC packs during the week he was out. At first I thought he would make good SBC fodder because I didn't need a fullback substitute as I already had TOTY Robertson. But then I noticed he had really nice stats for any position and specifically midfield. So I put him on my bench and started subbing him on for TOTS Kroos around halftime. Instantly he became undroppable. Every game I would sub him on no later than halftime and he never once made me regret it. If you can get him into your starting 11 or even your bench, I would highly recommend it. His stats allow him to play anywhere on the field (though maybe not CB as hes a bit short and has high attacking workrates). It should also be noted he has only ever played as a substitute for me, never started, and I have only subbed him in during weekend league.

Pace: feels like the fastest player I've ever used. Feels faster than TOTS Sancho, TOTS Hakimi, and TOTSM Fati

Shooting: he is very good with both feet and seems to have a knack for sneaking balls into the bottom corner

Positioning: he is perfect for a 2 CM formation like the 4-4-2 or the 4-2-4 (which is what I play). He gets up in attack but unlike some midfielders tends to recover really quickly

Defending: not the first thing you think of when thinking of Cuadrado but he is good at pestering attackers and is tenacious enough to win the ball

Dribbling: he is very quick on the ball and has 5* skill moves which is nice

I have no idea if he is good a RB: I have never subbed him into the defense but I imagine he would probably be good there too

Passing: very 50/50 with him. Some games he is very consistent and some games he's all over the place

Physical: pretty good but he's small enough that he does get pushed around by CBs

Links: not too many good, cheap, strong links at RB

Formation: 442
Position: CM
Games: 42
GPG: 0.31
APG: 0.33

Colombian king

Great little addition to a team. He is solid at the back due to his 99 agility, 99 stand tackle and 99 aggression. Don't be sacred by his low interceptions - his speed, position and aggression help this. I play with backbone which not only increasing defensive awareness, tackling and strength, but also vision and short pass which are upgraded to 93 and 99 respectively. He can go on runs, overlap your RM and still get back d...

Surprisingly good!

I did this card for about 4k just to try him out, I put a sentinel on him... and wow! he's actually quite good! He has the pace to be a good defender and with a sentinel and his stand and slide tackle aren't that bad, just his interceptions aren't the best. I also tried him and CM and he's also quite good there.

Cuadrado at your service!

So where do I start? I got him as a red pick, twice... Didn't have an untradable right back and wanted one so I got a bit happy at first. Then I realized I couldn't get him into the team on chem but after a lot of rearranging I got him in on 8 chem and what can I say... He's fantastic!I thought he would be similar to Hakimi who is good but doesn't have the presence in the defense. But Cuadrado is everywher...
