93 - TOTS
5.0
Buy him now... You won't regret it
By aleblackicar385, 23-06-2018

I found this guy in the guaranteed Bundesliga tots sbc, but at first it was quite hard to fit him into the team, so I was using him as a super sub and he was doing alright, but still missed a few shots due to his low finishing. Than I managed to buy 85 blanc to give him chem, slapped a sniper chemistry style to boost his finishing and help got into the starting 11. This was where things changed. He started carrying my team.


Pace: he is unreal, even tots walker couldn't catch him, really feels like 98-99


Shooting (with sniper): his position is Very good, always on the defensive line and ready to sprint, very rarely in offside. His finishing is great, he won't miss anything, both with his left and with his right foot. Amazing both at driven shot and at driven finesse shot. Ridiculous shot power, he could break a wall. Longshots are insane, both power shot and finesse shot, and even with his right foot. If you come up against him, don't let him shoot, he will punish you. His volleys and penalties are also good.


Passing: as a LAM, his passing was really good, especially the crossing ant the through balls. Imho he would be great as a cam too. Free kicks we non that are trash in this fifa, so just call the second man, pass it to bailey and fire a blasting longshot into the back of the net. His 98 curve really shows up in both crosses and finesse shots, but don't take corner with him, you will understand later


Dribbling: he has 4 99 stats, and you can really tell this. First touch is always perfect, his agility and balance make him a nightmare to face against. He turns very quickly with the ball that you don't have to sprint in order to pass through defenses. Just move the analog. He performs skills very quickly and precisely (drag backs are beastly with Bailey). His reactions and composure are on the low side, but IG they feel higher. Didn't have much problem with that.


Defending: he is not ha defender, but with his pace he can sometimes do nice things against midfielders.


Physical: his strengththtththh feels really good, due to his high balance and decent aggression. 96 stamina means he can last the whole game, even in fifa 18, where wingers get tired a lot, so don't worry if you don't have great subs.


Heading: with 99 jumping, 99 heading accuracy and decent height, this guy is an aerial threat. Fullbacks can't mark him in the air, and he has scored me a lot of goals with his head. He can also catch the ball in the air when your opponent does some long passes or kicks the ball with the keeper. This guy can score a lot of headers from corners too, so I advice to let him stay inside the area.


Weakfoot: his 4 * wf feels definitely more like a 5* due to his really high shooting attributes, both in and outside the penalty area.

The only real problem is his nationality, which make him hard to link. However, at this point of the game, icons are pretty cheap, and you can use tots Wendell too, which looks pretty good on paper. He reminds me a lot of Cristiano Ronaldo, without the 5*skills

- pace pace pace

- longshots

- finishing (with sniper)

- shooting in general

-crosses and through balls

-everything about dribbling

-heading

-stamina

-weak foot

- skills and strength/balance

-if you can't afford CR7, he is one of the best alternatives (you can argue that he is even better than the base cr7)

- nationality makes hybrids a bit hard to do

- finishing if you don't boost it with a chem style

- if you play him in a 352, he is not a great defender

Other Leon Bailey Reviews

Just wow, I have nothing else to say.

Well, I had wanted this card after using his SIF a couple of months ago but I just ended up selling him after making a new team. However, even back then he was better than Lozano for me, yes that is right, better than Lozano. Yet, I never seem to play against him (thankfully). So, after seeing this Bundesliga TOTS he caught my eye, as well as Reus, Goretzka and Caligiuri. I opened a few packs and I got Peterson, yay... Anyw...

OMG

I pulled this card out of a Bundesliga Tots pack, so not really sure about value for money, but anyway...First off, Pace. With 99 pace it is obviously amazing, but combined with his dribbling and agility, I thought there had been a gameplay update, because he feels so fast!Bailey's shooting was my only problem with his inform versions, but that was no problem because of Bailey's massively upgraded shooting sta...

Lord Bailey - The Dream Super Sub!

I packed him in a SBC and thought of trying him out in the WL before selling him. Man what a good decision that was! If you are using a Bundesliga team, this guy should be your left winger. For anyone using any other hybrid team like me, he can be a great second half super-sub. He has literally saved me in at least 6-7 WL games when i was losing. He's got blistering pace and amazing dribbling, coupled with good shooting sta...
