Player Review
98 - TOTS
It was a fine summer morning... I was lying in bed hungover, trying my best to log in to EA Companion app! All of a sudden, the bulb in me lit up and I saw the new SBC's out! "PREMIER LEAGUE TOTS", the beast was finally available to be completed! So I calmly put in the players I had (10 untradeables and 1 Matic) and submitted it. Having come out of 12 brutal upgrade SBC's with Mangala being the top bloke in 7 of those packs.. I had no hope left! I opened the pack and there he was.... The Egyptian god, the myth, the legend- Mo Salah !Dont remember much after that, I had gone back to sleep or just fell unconscious..
I was never a big fan of Salah since I prefer attackers with atleast 4* weak foot, but oh boy! This guy is unreal. The pace, the thumping shots and 90+ strength with hawk? WTF! But what impressed me the most, the calm and composed finishes he has in the box and the bullet headers he scores! Come on, we all know while defending against short players, we really dont care if they try to jump, it looks cute! But this guy heads the ball as if he sees the ball as Ramos and takes his anger out on it. Of course, he's a great dribbler, passer and makes fantastic runs but in the box, he's like a 6 ft tall player with a 5*weak foot! Guess the stats don't lie after all!
I use him with a hawk chem style to enhance his long shots, I dont know if its the chem style but he takes some bullet long shots as well! I play him on 10 chem at LF (change in game) and he does brilliant in every game.. Passes like David Silva and shoots like Ronaldo while in a body of Messi!
I was lucky to pack him as an untradeable, I guess the FIFA gods were a fan of the beer I had the previous night ! haha
- Pace, Pace, pace
- Jumping and heading accuracy (For you crossers out there)
- Strength (Still gets bullied by TOTS cards because 90 strength in a short body doesnt mean much! but holds off 90% of the players out there)
- Edge of the box shots
- Weak foot everywhere on the pitch (except when in the box)
