I play UT since FIFA 14 and I always love to use cheap beast cards, even if they aren't a thing anymore (I will never forget the cheap beast squads or fitness squads with beasts inside, best time to be alive, hands down) and Makengo is a card like that.
I'm in Div5/Div4 most of the time and its possible to still use these cards there. Makengo is cheap af and got very nice stats, I let him play next to Evo Kante and Evo-Radioactive Tchoumanie in a old school 4321 (I still love this formation so much). I came up to Makengo after I used Karamoah and was asking myself "what other cheap pro cards are out there?" and so I found him.
He is very good in the defensive, he can score goals (headers), he is agile and good on the ball - feels exactly like my Evo Kante and they both are really great together. If you want to run a cheap beast team, you need to get him, he is such a great player and 10-12k coins aren't much for just tryin' him out.
