Player Review
82 - OTW
Balde is the absolute best alternative to Neymar in any League1 team, unless you have a spare 400k+ to drop being cheap is not such a bad idea anymore when cards like this exist. He has explosive acceleration off the dribble and off of skill moves, with blistering speed and dribbling skills. Any finesse shot inside 25 yards he will finish, and I found me scoring most of my goals with him after cutting in from the wing and overpowering the goalkeeper. He is tall and has decent strength so he can hold off most fullbacks who try to slow him down, and crosses with him regularly resulted in goals or scoring opportunities. He is a very enjoyable player to skill with, and the use of simple stepovers and scoop turns make Balde an electrifying player up top. If you were to play him in a LM position he would be wasted, he is best used in the attack LW/LF.
