Player Review
88 - Normal
After spending some fifa points and grinding with coin boosts, trading i got my hands on one my favorite right sided wingers in the game.
And hell, does he feels good this year too! It wasn't that expensive, 102k coins when i bought him and still to this day when i write this review he still goes between 100k and 110k which seeing the PL prices is nothing for this high rated card.
So the positives:
I scored in 11 games 14 goals and 0 assists because he was always at the right position at the right time so his positioning in-game is really good.
I didn't had any assists with him because if i got the ball to him he was in a position to score and not to pass through the ball. With basic chem style his positioning and finishing both 90 so... yeah, with
86 composure... perfect. Use his finesse shots, its freakin' OP as he has 92 curve with basic chem style.
His passing is also good, especially with quick 1-2 passing and with high-low work rate, he always started to run by himself and i did not need to send him on a run manually. Crossings is possible but i found them inconsistent, don't know why and to be honest i usually do low driven passes not crossings. I suggest you to set him to get in behind and cut inside to get the most out of him on the wings because he is most deadly inside the penalty box.
Let's see his dribbling. With the basic chem style his dribbling is high nineties, so there is exactly 0 problems there. His first touch is perfect, his close ball control is touch tight and it's very easy to wriggle around defenders with his dribbling and 4 star skill moves. He's quick and reaches his top speed almost instantly so you can run, run and run if you wish, few defenders can catch him.
Now let's see the negatives.
Weak foot. Yeah, its for standing only nothing else. Avoid using it as much as possible. It's virtually nonexistent. None. 0. Forget it.
The another weakness is the stamina. He could play through the whole game, because of his high-low work rates he doesn't exhaust himself that much fast even if you are a pace whore. BUT.
But it shows. After the 60-70 minutes he starts to feel slow as he looses fitness. You need to use him correctly, i usually could go trough the whole game with him and score winning goals in the 90th minute so just don't sprint all the time and build up your game from the midfield and he will be there to finish it any time, any day.
The last weakness is aggression. He is timid as a little bunny. If a defender catches him, and goes shoulder to shoulder he WILL loose the ball and not fight back to get it so keep this in mind!
Lastly there is something i did not mentioned as a weakness but you should consider:
His strength could be marked as a weakness but... i don't know, i don't think it is. He is NOT a strength player, he is someone you use to run down the wings, cut inside with some skill moves and score a goal.
Thanks for reading my review i hope i could help you with deciding to buy him or not!
