Player Review
99 - FOF PTG
My player pick luck strikes again... I pulled him in the TOTS or PTG pick and immediately had to fit him into my team even if it meant benching my beloved Griezmann. I'm using him as the center CAM in a 4231 formation, replacing prime Zidane. This Firmino is a noticable upgrade.
Pace 9/10: With a hunter, he is very fast and I'd recommend that chemistry style until/if he gets his next upgrade. He's up there in pace, but not a 10/10 due to his body type and height holding it back a bit compared to other players.
Shooting 10/10: I would give this an 11/10 if I could. Out of every player I've used this year, he has the best shooting. The shot power is crazy and he seems to finish 99/100 shots that are on target. Simply amazing.
Passing 8/10: Like Griezmann, his passing isn't anything to go crazy over. There's nothing bad I can say about it but it's not TOTY Bruno or KDB level.
Dribbling 9/10: Firmino doesn't appear to have the "sticky trait" but his dribbling is very, very good. He rarely loses the ball when around or in the box and is one of the best dribblers in my team.
Defending 7/10: His heading is not as good as I expected, but makes up for the defending stat with his defensive ability. There's not many CAMs or STs in this game who can basically come back and play CDM.
Physicals 9/10: 84 strength is a lie. It's atleast 95 and I'm guessing this feeling has to do with his unique body type. You cannot outmuscle this guy; only the very, very top teir CBs have a chance. He can just run at defences like a truck and nobody can body him. 99 stamina is obviously ideal as well.
