Player Review
92 - TOTS
Okay so I was trawling the web looking for a review on this TOTS Busquets and I could not find a thing. I needed that strong CDM who can pass the ball like Iniesta and have the physicality of a pregnant moose on drugs. I used him in the DKT to get Callejon and my god he was detrimental to me winning that tournament.
Well he surprised me a lot, as expected my biggest fear was him having the pace of Susane Boyle but I wacked the trusty Shadow card on him and for his role as CDM it is perfect. He didn't need this magnificent pace to keep up with fast attackers he was always in the right position just in-front of the back line always intercepting or on-top of the attacker as soon as a pass given. His marking and interception was incredible. Along with that his passing was superb, for that CDM role where you just want to get the ball out accurately and quickly to your attackers he was perfect for, hold up play he could dribble like Messi and hold off anyone if you wanted to slow the game down. Admittedly his balance and agility are very low but its not something you really notice much in game because you are not trying to take on people. His attacking when he did decide to move up the pitch was brilliant. He assisted 8 out of 7 games but I never felt confident enough to take the shot on simply because I have Messi, Henry & Crespo up top so my main goal was to just provide the ball to them and let them do their magic which i felt Busquests was perfect for.
All in all for a player I haven't seen a review online for yet I decided to try him out and hes a player I am most definitely keeping in my team at that CDM role. If you're looking for a strong great passing CDM to break up play and feed your front 3/5 then trust me he is your man. I used him in a base formation of 4-3-2-1 then switched in-game to 4-1-2-1-2(2).
