Player Review

97 - TOTS
1.5
Absolute Trash
By Dembelbae, 08-05-2018

I packed this guy in that guaranteed Prem. TOTS pack that I bought for basically 6K coins, so I mean, I'm not upset. With that being said, I cannot emphasize enough just how garbage this card is. I packed him and was exultant... I mean the highest rated goalkeeper in the game! Wow! But I was ready for what was to come considering the reviews he received on his TOTY. I am convinced that his regular card (90 or 91) is 10* better. And trust me, I am not saying he's trash compared to what I expect out of a 97 rated goalkeeper. No, I mean he plays like he is a 65 overall. He has yet to have a full game clean sheet in the 7 games I've played and he lets in at best half the shots on target. He was a simple addition to my team that performs well regularly, so no blame can be placed on the defenders. His animation is just awkward, like his reflexes are good at first, but it takes him WAY too long to get down and actually save the ball. He cannot catch as well. I could go on, but I'm getting tired. Basically, the only purpose he serves in my club is to be a collector's item, a trophy to look back on. I am going to experiment with chemistry styles, so this review may change, but I don't feel confident that it will.

Other De Gea Reviews

Of course better then his 90 rated version

Got him in packs, then I read the other review and were unsure about selling my existing 90 rated De Gea, who did a great job in 500 games. But I decided to give the 91 rated De Gea a try, I put "Gloves" on him, which is the same chemistry style I used on his 90 rated card. - And until now this guy don't let me down. It feels like he thwarted much more chances then his 90 rated card. His 1 on 1 feels much better, his defend...

OH LOOOOORD!

Dave saves, but he never shaves!!! David De Gea will always be between the posts, because he will not use time at the barber as Pogboom I don`t know where to start. This Spanish mammoth with gloves will never let you down. He is good at washing his hands after toilet visit, so soapy fingers are not the problem. His reaction is like a miracle. De Gea...

Zero difference

You would think that a 97 rated player would feel somewhat better than a 90 rated one. Well, I am here to tell you that this is definitely not the case with this TOTS De Gea. I have used his 90 rated card for plenty of games before I was "lucky" enough to pack his 97 as an untradable card, and I can say with 100% certainty that this card is no better than his regular gold card. I think the reason is that i...
