82 - TOTGS
4.0
Captain Andre
By darkor2k9, 01-02-2018

Captain, oh, Captain. Together with Pizzi, Andre Silva is the heart and soul of my team and thus, its Captain. He is one heck of a player, especially in a lone striker formation. Most outstanding is his positioning and heading ability. I have scored so many headers with him and if you have potent crossers, every corner and cross will pose a threat with him in the box. I play him in a target man role with Sniper, boosting his finishing up to 98. His strength of 77 may not seem ideal, but take his 6 feet and combine it with the for this height unusual high balance and agility and you have a player which is really hard to tackle. His passing is good, too, showing in its unusual high assist ratio. There are games where Andre totaly disappears and cant get on the scoreboard, but most times he then manages to slot the ball through to Pizzi and make his mark. His stamina is also outstanding, he can go all the way til penalties. Unfortunately, as I climbed up the online divisions and the defenders and GKs got better, some concerning flaws where coming to the surface. He could have scored so much more goals if his nerves werent flattering in front of goal quite often. Most times his finishig is quite good but then the next chance, he will miss an absolute sitter. His longshots are really hard, but often not precise enough. After 150 games, Im now replacing him with 88 Sheva, who seems like a smaller duplicate of him with less stamina, but much more clinical. Ofc, Andre Silva will remain on my bench as my super sub, cause he is an absolute legend of my club and, as you already know, my captain. When Shevas tank is empty late in the game, he will enter the pitch and he WILL cause havoc in the tired defense.

Simply Frightening

First of all I have to say that it was the price that attracted me here, but then I started to go deeper and have a good look at the stats, even on basic this card is going to get in the mix, especially in a 4-3-2-1, I stuck a hunter on him and WOW, is all I can say, this boy can shoot, reminds me of Mbappe but ever stronger, that 82 PHY is hiding a couple of cheeky 89's in jumping and stamina and a nice 77 strength, which ...

André Silva review

He is much better then the stats will tell you. I've played with him over 120 games and he just scored 97 goals and I play in Weekend League. If you put a player like Alejandro Gómez or Mertens behind him, you will be very succesfully because his shooting is good, he hasn't bad passing or pace but he has not so many agility as I want him to have and those players could do it.
