94 - TOTS

5.0

Best Value for Coins Eng-game LB

By ameyavilankar, 20-07-2018

Wow. He is probably the best LB I have used this game. Considering his price, he is a must buy.

Chemistry Style used: Anchor (to get that 99 pace). But sentinel should also work.

Definitely an end-game LB.

Better at defending than jordi and roberto.

Worse at attacking than jordi and roberto but not by much.

Haven't played with TOTs marcelo.

Best LB value for money in the game.

1. Height and heading: That goddamn backpost cross. This guy will perform way better than marcelo, alba, roberto carlos. He will outjump all the shorter players and sometimes the better ones like ronaldo (but not always).

2. Stamina: Ohh that 99 stamina. Will keep on running forever and ever. Even in extra time.

3. Crossing: I like to score lot of goals from crosses since the backpost cross is so OP. This guy delivers time and again. 53 assists in 13 games. Lot of them were crosses to the back post.

4. Speed: He is lightning quick. I always bring the ball out with him by just making him run along the flanks. Works like a charm against the narrow formations who crowd the midfield.

5. Passing: Just scroll up and take a look at his passing stat. I have lost count the number of time I have switched the flanks using his left peg. 99 long passing FTW. He is pretty good and 1-2s with his deadly accurate passing and sprint speed.

6. Strength: His strength is OK with an anchor chemistry. His height and speed make up for his OK strength. Will catch up and outmuscle most players.

7.Versatile: Can play in midfield. Only issue would be the weak foot if you decide to play him there.

Cons:

1. Slightly Clunky: He is slightly clunk to turn when compared to Jordi Alba (TOTS) or Roberto Carlos. Might be slower to turn directions when you have TOTs salah running zig-zag at you. But if you can get used to him, then this might not be a con. Considering his 5'11 frame, he is still decent.

2. Links: He is difficult to link. You need legends or Brazilians (should be fairly easy to slot him).

3. Finishing: I keep my full backs on balanced. So this guy bombs forward and finds himself in attacking positions. He has insane shot power but sometimes inconsistent in finishing. And please do not try finishing on his right (very bad). This might not be a con for most since they like to keep their full backs stay back while attacking.

Absolutely Brilliant!!!

This guy is the best LB in the game (maybe a little behind TOTY Marcelo, but for 380K less). He runs like salah, shoots like roberto carlos , passes like pirlo, dribbles like Messi ,,, 70K for this beast is really like someone selling the Mona Lisa painting for 20$. What a bargain. He will do you wonders, just play him with his left footJust sad that he came out so late in the game.

Telles - The Master of Crosses!

EPL players might dominate a lot of teams in FUT, but there is no denying that there is not one "Must Have" LB in the PL. I have tried IF Kolasinac, SIF Young, IF Alonso, Rose but none lived up to the expectations set by Alaba or Sandro - the 2 most widely respected and used LBs in FUT 18. And let me tell you, Telles is the 3rd best LB after those 2. When you look at this Telles card, the base stats look insane for a LB. I ...

Cheap and Underrated Star

When I bought this card to replace Alex Sandro for only a small fraction of the price, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was fully blown away. He is relatively easy to link given his Brazilian nationality, and with Brahimi getting a recent SIF provides a good strong club link. To the card itself, the stats on paper are surprising for an 83-rated Left Back, but they certainly show in-game. With the Anchor Chem Style his pa...
