NIF Bonucci Review
By messineymarsuarez9, 08-10-2017

NIF Bonucci is an exceptional card, certainly one of the best ball playing center backs in the game. His passing is crisp and accurate, which is helpful if you play a possession-based game or if you like to play long balls from your defense on the counter attack. He has low agility and balance, but he doesn't feel very clumsy and he is comfortable on the ball.


His standing tackles are incredible, and he tends to stay in position because of his work rates. He wins defensive headers, even against tall target men, but he wasn't much of an attacking threat for me from set pieces.


His stamina (73) is acceptable for a CB, especially one with L/H workrates. Even if you go on the occasional dribble with him, he will be completely fine to play the full 90 minutes + extra time without any issues.


Obviously, the only thing Bonucci lacks is a burst of speed to catch up with attackers who have broken through the defensive line. He's not slow, but he struggles to keep up with quicker players. Luckily, his good positioning and precise tackling make this less of a problem.

Best CB in the game?!?

So, i dont know where to begin. I have always had shit pack luck, but i opened some 100k on lightning rounds and this beauty came out. I looked up his price and was suprised by how cheap he was for his stats. So i decided that i would give him a few matches. And WOW, what a fucking animal this card is. He is so fast, and strong and can pass the ball like a elite midfielder.

Can he be used as Cdm?

I started using him at Cb and he was making passes like Pirlo. Then it hit me why not use this guy at Cdm, he got the stats for it and man what a player. Because of his workrates he really stays in the Cdm spot but you need him to give stay back while attacking or else he will switch in game sometimes with your left cm if you're using 4-1-2-1-2 (2). Only don't expect him to score goals, he has high longshots and shot power ...

The BEST player EVER

I use him at Cb in 4-1-2-1-2 (2) and ShadowHe is brilliant, he stops Ronaldo, Messi, you name it.You will not be able to defend with anyone else. You get use to have him clearing the intire defense!He wins any tackle, he never misses a pass, he wins every single header.In corners he is an absolute beast.He is a top buy for the price.I had Desailly and Matthaus and Bonuci TOTY is far...
