Player Review
86 - SIF
After seeing countless fantastic reviews about this card I decided it was time to buy. I came in late to the party and snatched one up with shadow chem at 150K. I have very nice calcio A squad with a couple nice Icons. It is a good overall card that is very heavy and slow on the ball. (even with shadow)
After playing 30 games with
this card these are my honest opinions :
Offensively : above
average/good - can sink a nice shot in every now and then - great shot power. Accuracy
leaves a lot to be desired. Scored header goals somewhat frequently. Not as
good offensively as SBC Hamsik, 87 Hamsik, or IF Bonaventura.
Defensively : above
average/good - with his height he wins almost every ball in the air (best
quality about this card) but when the ball is on the ground, even with shadow
chem it was less than I was expecting/hoping for. Once he loses position on an
attacking player it's over. Too slow to recover, to slow to stay in front of
fast skilled players. I would take 86 Naingollan, and especially IF Naingollan.
IF Allan all over this card for a good defensive CM
I was lucky enough to sell
this card at 198K (due to the latest spike of users thinking this guy is going
to be getting upgrade, I think) and honestly I feel very fortunate I was able
to sell this card for a profit. There are many many other Calcio A CM's I would
prefer over this guy at this price. When I was debating playing Marchisio (a 10K card)
over this guy I knew it was time to go
I told myself I would
re-buy this card if it ever dropped to 80K again, that would be about the peak
of what it's worth. If not that's OK too.
If you haven't purchased
this card and have been wanting to, I'm here to tell you, you're not missing
out on anything. save your coins
