Just too OP
By xJeffsRevenge, 12-02-2018

I decided to try him out and see whether he's actually better than Boateng and yes he is! Compared to Boateng he's a complete CB. I played him next to Bailly and he more or less got dominated by Benatia.

  • Benatia is always perfectly positioned. It'll never happen that a striker is wide open or that Benatia rushes out of the defensive line.
  • He's quiet fast and always catches the attackers
  • There's no one he didn't push away from the ball or couldn't win a header against
  • His tackling is just op. As soon as he's near to the ball and you press circle, you got the ball.
  • His passing is always on point and he never fails to get the ball to a teammate.
  • There's no real con!
  • Maybe it's a little bit hard to link him if you don't want to use Alex Sandro or a full Calcio A squad

best defender in the game

Benatia TOTS is a monster !! by far the best defender i tried ( i did had Leblanc prime, ferdinand prime, ramos toty, desailly prime ). it's just insane how is always good placed on the floor and he had such a speed he can catch anyone and he can easily get the ball from them, he is also the king of the air ! he scored so many goals in the corners... the only cons is the staminna at 76 but for a defender it's okay !

Great value for money

I packed Benatia as an untradeable during the 81+ pack frenzy last week, and didn't even think of playing him, but after getting rid of Prime Ferdinand to get R9 I had a gaping hole in my defense that needed to be filled.He's actually a lot better than Prime Rio in everything. People like to say that Icons have a "hidden trait" and they're always better that other players... I've never felt that with Rio. ...

The Moroccan Icon

What is there to say. I used his regular card in the team shown (which is shown how it looks in game, obviously everyone gets 10 chem) and he was good. Not as good as the baby Ferdinand, or Boateng, or Bailly even. He was a CB I felt I used out of necessity due to my love of Alex Sandro, who I consider to be the best LB in the game bar none (including Alaba, and the 2nd version of Roberto Carlos, both of whom I have used). ...
