Player Review

82 - IF
4.0
Cheap And Reliable CB
By TomJP, 17-01-2018

This card surprised me when it came out, but given a lot of people opened TOTW packs it was inevitable his price would plummet. But this, for the average FUT player like myself, played into our hands. On face value this card has decent stats, namely 76 Pace, 74 Dribbling and 84 Defending. When I applied an Anchor Chem Style to him, he felt very solid in-game. His pace is reasonable and better than most other CBs, his dribbling and passing is above average compared to CBs such as Manolas or Benatia, and his defending and physical, when boosted, make him a true force to be reckoned with. He is overall an absolute steal at a mere 13K or so, and even as a super sub to freshen the defence as the game dies out I recommend Nkoulou. Very enjoyable player!

Steady defender for a very good price

Replaced Barzagli for Nkoulou in my squad, and I'm very pleased with his recent results.He got the pace and pass which I was sometimes missing with Barzagli.I often use driven passes with my central defender to use a fast build up play, and Nkoulou is the best passer I used as central defender.His defensive skills are solid as well, hardly make any mistakes.

Better than Benatia

I play him with Chiellini in my team and this guy is OP. He has excellent speed and short passing for a CB. Give him an Anchor and he is god. He is always in the right position and I almost forget my SIF Benatia. I think 14k for this guy is absolutely a steal.

Absolutely good, well-rounded defenseman

Actually I was looking for a stand-by player to sub my Bonucci/Benatia-CB-Pairing.After trying him out Nkoulou has made it to the starting eleven.For I don't like bulky CB's with low technical skills like Koulibaly and Manolas — I prefer to build-up via the last lane — this wasn't an option. I also find Miranda a little dissatisyfing, in terms of heading and position...
