Player Review

91 - FOF
4.5
Defensive beast!
By Qualitysearcher, 24-07-2018

Was no review here on futbin yet so decided to write one and hopefully give you a better understanding of this OP card.

To start this review off I can first say that I used this card in division 2 and WL and played him as a cm/cdm.

This card is godly to win the ball back as he does it all game long with his insane defending and physical stats combined with splendid pace for a central midfielder. This Matuidi did increase my win ratio and was the key to stop conceding as many goals as I did previously based on his defending and his amazing ability to recover the ball back. The key with him is to keep it simple and use him to track all over the pitch or atleast in defending and when he wins the ball back, you just pass the ball to a more technically gifted footballer. His 2 star combo restricts him and his play with the ball but wouldn't say that his 2 star skill moves matter but the 2 star weak foot is bad, would love if it was 3 star but his price tag should have increased drastically if that was the case. He is worth much more then his price is right now so try him out for yourselves, he is for real beast in this game.

Used him as a CDM in 4-2-3-1 narrow and as a CM and CDM in 4-1-2-1-2 (2)


Interceptions godly

Tracking back

Pace

Wins almost everything in the air

Can last like forever in a game with his 99 stamina

Played as CM his H/H workrates is great

His agility is great doesn't feel clunky at all in defending

Weak foot

Workrates H/H if he is used as CDM even if he was sat on stay back he would go forward quite a lot either way.

As a CM his shooting isn't good at all therefore the reason to

Need to keep it simple cuz his ability with the ball isn't that good.

Other Blaise Matuidi Reviews

The Cheap Kante.

He is amazing, fast, strong and his shooting can be amazing sometimes as well! even tho his shooting is 67, it feels like 85...He has scored some insane long shots for me and in my opinion better than Kante. He can outpace players like, Martial, Rashford, Neymar and etc.

Matuidi, better than Kante.

I think Matuidi better is than N'golo Kante. If you like Kante, you also like Matuidi but Matuidi is a lot more offensive.I've used him now for 40 matches (20 in Weekend League and 20 in division 4) and he has scored 7 goals and 6 assists.In the Netherlands (where I live) they call players like him 'een stofzuiger', he intercepts every ball.

Beast Midfielder

Matuidi is an absolute freak during games, put a shadow on him and he becomes unstoppable. He gets above 90 pace and is able to dribble easily past defenders and is amazing as a defender.He can score crazy goals but is pacey so if possession changes he can easily run back
