88 - TOTS
4.5
ABSOLUTELY UNEXPECTED
By KeevanMCFC, 02-05-2018

To be honest, when I packed this guy from the sbc I was really disapointed. But I decided to stick him into my squad to give him a shot and oh boy, my opinion changed in no time. In the LB spot I have used a lot of different players like, marcelo, alba, rose, alaba, alex sandro and even roberto carlos, but I can say with every bone in my body that this is one of the best LB players I have ever used. So for me he will stay in every single squad I'll make in the future.

Let's get right into the pros:

  • pace, pace, pace, he outruns everyone. even the ronaldo's en aubameyang's
  • defending, it is absolutely ridiculous. He defends even better then my baby matthaus in some situations. Just incredbible
  • physical, even with that strenght being a little low, the combination with that 88 agrassion makes up for it.
  • stamina, is able to run back and forward all game.
  • passing, is able to give some sick passes
  • dribbling, when bringing him forward this is a absolutely a key-stat for him

The cons:

  • strenght, it is a minor con, but a little bit more strenght will make him much more OP
  • 2 star skills en 3 start weakfoot. But this is only a problem when you let him come high up the pich a lot.
  • of course the high/medium workrates, but when you let him come forward you won't regret it because of his ability. And because he is really fast he will be back in no time

All purpose left back

Each year I start out my Liga Santander starter squad with Gaya as my left back, previous years he's been one of the first to leave the squad for a better alternative, mostly Jordi Alba or Filipe Luis. This year tho, it might take som time before I let go of him. Bought for a mere 1200 coins in the first days of FIFA early access, the value for money is insane. He seems to be extremly well balanced in attack and defe...

Wow

There is no other word. This guy is next level. Easily the best left back I've used in any fifa, and this fifa I've gone through alex sandro, totgs rodriguez, alba, alaba, pretty much anyone who's not over 150k. His defending is spot on, tackling is great, great touch, and his pace is enough to catch up to anyone. Used him in DKT for callejon and in squad battles on legendary. For just over 100k, pick him up.

BEAST!

Honestly, I wasn't expecting he will be that good! Currently I'm using spanish league players in a 4-1-2-1-2 (2) formation and Jordi Alba was my last choice on LB. Everyone knows that JB is a very good player for a non-rare card, but man oh man.... José Luís Gayà Peña is something else!Playing with his card like a cheat...
