87 - Icon

5.0

Decent and Cheap Icon.

By nokkbr, 30-10-2017

The squad was changed In-game 41212(2).

Sold this guy earlier today to do Rui Costa SBC, so I'm gonna compare them.

Deco didn't feel very good at CAM, don't get me wrong, his passing and dribbling was good for a CAM, but he wasn't playing as I would expect a Icon to play.

Anyway I kept playing him until I stopped changing the formation (forgot to change) and discovered he's a best as a CF, as opposed to Rui Costa 90, who I feel is much better at CAM position, behind two strikers.

Deco was shockingly bad before I switched him to playing him to false 9, I had 25 matches with 5 goals and 7 assist with him, ended WL with 40 matches with him, wiith 23 goals and 23 assist, he turned very prolific after that.

His 1v1 with the keeper was tremendously good considering his low finishing, low driven shots with him are insane.

His finesse shots outside the box are extremely effective also. Power shots aren't so good.

His dribbling is silky smooth with Maestro chem, better than Rui Costa for me.

Can't say too much about passing as I don't play with manual passing, but he was great, long balls, fine. Short passes, fine. 1-2 with the wingers, fine. All good.

He's extremely effective playing lonely, only con is he bullied easily.

Also, dont get me wrong, he has great dribbling but he won't just pass like a thunderbolt through defenders, you need to play smart.

I give Deco 6/10 because of the price, if I paid 100k - 200k for a player like him I would easily give him 9/10.
