95 - Summer Heat SBC
I completed this Pogba SBC as soon as it came out. I was expecting it to be an 85 + 86 + 87 squad, so I was happy when I saw the requirments. I've tried him at CDM/CM and CAM, and he's performed well in all of them. I applied the SHADOW chemistry style, to boost the pace up significantly. Engine also seems like a good option if you're playing him as a CM. For me, he's not good enough defensively to be a CDM on his own, however playing him in a 4-2-2-2 or 4-2-3-1 alongside a player like Ndombele, Fabinho etc he plays very well as a secondary CDM. However, I still feel that his best position is at CM. IMO this SBC is worth completing if he fits your team, but if he doesn't then I wouldn't. If you have Ndombele, I wouldn't REPLACE him with Pogba, however if they're going to play in the same team it's an awesome link. I'd say that this is a good value for money SBC, and I'm happy to have done it. I'll list my ratings for the stats below:
PACE: 8/10 Even with a shadow, his pace didn't seem too great because he's 6'3. It's still good pace for a CDM/CM though.
SHOOTING: 10/10 Hasn't missed a shot for me yet - He's unreal at shooting
PASSING: 9/10 Good, but not top tier
DRIBBLING: 8/10 Felt slightly clunky, but controls the ball nicely and he can do brilliant skill moves
DEFENDING: 8/10 Decent defending with a shadow, but I think he's better offensively than defensively
PHYSICALITY: 8/10 His body type means that he doesn't really bully players off the ball, however he rarely loses the ball in a physical battle.
Overall: 9/10 - Not the top 3 CM's in the game, but is ceratinly up there in the top 15. For the price, GET HIM IF HE FITS YOUR TEAM.
