The best lb
By fcmarcelonaut, 23-04-2018

First I have to say that I'm Finnish and my English isn't really great. But here we go. Alex Sandro is the best no-special card lb in the game. He has literally everything. He's tall enough, fast, has good work rates, good links, good stars and basically very well-rounded stats. With shadow he can catch even the fastest wingers and strikers in a long or short run. His sprint speed is better than his acceleration, which is a good thing in my opinion. He doesn't lose headers very much, but I think good right wingers are usually shorter than left wingers. Although, he's every time very well positioned and it seems very hard to my opponents to bring ball to attackers on his side. He intercepts the ball almost every time and protects it easily with good strength and aggression. His tackling is really good for a fullback.

When we speak offensive abilities, Alex Sandro has high/high work rates. It's the main reason for it that he's not every time leading your attack even if you want to. But with pressing L1 or LB he make good runs easily. Because 93 stamina, he make good runs in the late game too. His crossing is pretty good, but not as good as I expected. His curve isn't bad too, and I think 70 vision is main reason for his occasionally strange crosses. His shooting is really bad, and all my goals with him have came on rebounds. In my playstyle, I want full-backs to have at least some goalscore abilities, and this is little weakness. His short pass is really good though.

Best LB in the game

Hey guys, I just wanted to share my opinion on Alex Sandro who I consider as the best LB I've tried. I can compare him to Alaba, Danny Rose and Jordi Alba and he is far better than all of them because he has everything.86 Pace - His pace is more than enough for a LB. With Anchor/Shadow chemistry style he is an absolute beast and he can easily outrun and bully most of the RW/RM/RF in the ga...

Incredible !

This guys is actually insane, was always unsure about that LB spot ! between him and Alaba, And Jordan Lukaku ( yes that beast is up there with them ....)But now there nothing to be compared to ! This is the best LB in the game right now ! and he still can pick himself an inform or two ! He has now that 99 speed combined with the High/High workrates makes him a beast in that spot ! He actually can bully...

The GLOAT

After a long line of leftbacks i tried out I finally used the 86 Alex Sandro, and I liked him a lot. However I thought that I should upgrade my team every once in a while so I started to use TOTS Davies, TOTS Gaya, TOTS Robertson TOTS Young and 88 Roberto Carlos. But none of them were balanced as Sandro was. Roberto Carlos did score a lot for a LB but his lack of height is a dealbreaker for defending far post crosses. The P...
