Player Review
86 - Normal
So, for those skeptical about picking up a player worth over 100K, you want to be sure and have the clarity before picking up a potential game changer. I can tell you that Reus is worth every penny in my opinion. I played him as a LST on 7 Chemistry in a 4-2-2-2 and he outperformed expectations. His shot pre and post patch had longshots and finesse shots going in from every angle mainly down to his high shot power coupled with very good finishing for a winger. Overall, great stats, great card, good links, worth anything under 250K for me. Was able to attained E3 in the first WL with the 4-2-2-2 in the squad shown.
- Pace (86 Acceleration, 90 Sprint Speed)
- Finishing 86, Longshot 88, Shot Power 87 (In & Around The Area)
- Dribbling (86 Agility, 85 Ball Control) (Not necessarily the reason to buy him but it's still fantastic and opens up good lanes for passing and shots)
- Skill Moves 4* (Able to perform most of the important skills with his 4* and can do them at pace because of his high agility and player model)
- Passing (Able to make inch perfect passes in difficult situations and crossing is superb when utilized correctly)
- Weak Foot 4* (Could shoot from any angle and distance with his weak foot, was comfortable taking any shot)
- Strength 67 (With only having 67 Strength he is able to get pushed off the ball, however, his height and balance help repossessing in the attacking third. Overall, still a negative)
- Stamina 68 (I played all 40 games in this previous WL and didn't notice much of a problem when it came to stamina, overall I haven't noticed much of a difference when a player runs low on stamina, doesn't effect me as much as last installment).
