94 - TOTS

5.0

He catches balls

By Fiscerpool, 02-05-2018

Al right. I honestly don't know why this man is the most consistent Team of the Season, as he has been nothing like that this season. Actually, he has been consistently inconsistent, but that's not what we're looking for, right? Anyhow! Let's get down to it.

I packed this beast in the first TOTS SBC, and packing af 94 rated blue player is something else. I had to try him out instead of 90 De Gea, who - though he saves a lot - cannot keep hold of even the weakest of driven shots. Also, they both have the trait "long thrower", which is very important, so Courtois was given a fair chance.

He did not disappoint. In FIFA 18 it is notoriously difficult to keep a clean sheet, but in three Legendary Squad Battles and the first three rounds of the Callejon DKT, he actually didn't concede a goal, and he made two point-blank saves. Must importantly, though, was the fact, that he could KEEP HOLD of some driven shots. That was a big plus for me there.

300 is a lot, but I genuinely think he is better than 90/91 De Gea, so he is pretty darn good. He has my recommendations and I'll use him in the upcoming WL.

He takes up half the goal due to his size
He saves a lot
He catches a lot
He can throw the ball very far
He gets off his line really well
He has this cool blue card
He is miles better than his regular card which is in the top 3 of the worst keepers in the BPL.

He is expensive. Sort of.
He is a little slow getting up (usually after CATCHING a ball).

Absolute Beast In Goal

After deciding to build a BPL squad I began with Lloris who was very decent but just didn't feel truly elite to me. I had De Gea available on loan and while I was impressed with him, at the time he was way out of my price range. Enter Courtois. I sniped him at 73k when he was going for upwards of 80k and haven't looked back. The man is an absolute rock. In 130 games I cannot remember a time when he allowed a second chance g...

Thibaut Courtois

Absolute Legend

I used to have De Gea 91 as my GK and then I decided to give it a try. This card is totally different from his regular card and he is worth every single penny that you will spend on him. He is a very tall GK and that helps him with the long shots and he also has a perfect timing to come out for crosses. He is also the best GK so far to defend penalties, I have teste...

Good Until You Can Afford De Gea

Before using Courtois, I was using the high-tier trashcan known as Lloris. Courtois is a huge improvement over Lloris but only worth it if you don't want to use Hart or Butland and you can't afford De Gea. Courtois managed to make a colossal mistake once every two to four games... that was until he gave up not one but TWO last second goals IN THE SAME GAME off of deflections which landed outside the box because he decided...
