93 - TOTS
5.0
My all - time favourite!
By osynlfc, 21-08-2018

Amazing. Stunning. Incredible. Those are the words that can describe this card. It's a gift from the EA Gods. If you got the coins, get him. I know, I know. It's the end of FIFA, why should you buy him? Just buy him. Try him. Buy him as a souvenir for the end of FIFA 18. Let's get into the review. He brings so much joy!


Pace:


Just look at the stats. He is the fastest possible. Perfect pace. Ideal.


Shooting:


Wow. That was the word when I scored my first goal with him. His shooting is perfect, just like almost everything about him. Very good positioning. Now, his finishing isn't that good, but if you put the ''Finisher'' chemistry style on him, it fixes his two attributes that need to be fixed: finishing and physical. The ''Finisher'' style fixes his finishing from 82 to 87, long shots from 98 to 99 (which makes it 99 in shot power and long shots, those are some scary statistics!), fixes his volleys from 85 to 95, and his penalties from 90 to 99. Those are some impressive statistics if you ask me, and they feel just like that in game!


Passing:


His passes are very good, and they make him an amazing assister as well. I don't find anything wrong about his passes. Well, long passes are the worst compared to every other statistic in the ''passing'' category, but they are still decent with a rating of 86.


Dribbling:


Perfect! He treats defenders like toys and dodges them like they are children. Also 5 star skill moves!


Defense:


Doesn't matter on a right winger, although sometimes he can get the ball off the enemy.


Physcial:


Now, I would say that Douglas Costa is bad physically, but as I said before - use the ''Finisher'' chem. style on him, as it fixes his shooting and his physical. His stamina is good, but the ''Finisher'' upgrades his Strength, Jumping and Aggression, which are very, very important.



So, yeah. That's why Douglas is my favourite player I have ever used on any FIFA! Totally recommended.

Other Douglas Costa de Souza Reviews

Assisst King

I packed him from the Serie A sbc. I have played him only as a sub in the CAM position around the 60th minute. After about 20 games, I gotta say this card is the most fun card Ive used in this fifa. Because of his height and his dribbling he can pass through defenders like it's nothing, even without using skill moves just by running. He hasn't scored many goals for me, but he always gets an assist or two when I sub him on.

Speedy Dribbler

After a full weekend league and around 80 matches total, I can say that while this card may portray an air of grandeur and general "sexyness" that other cards simply don't posses, it is tragically flawed. A master when it comes to dribbles and the outright king of the curve attribute, Douglas Costa simply leaves a lot to be desired when it comes to his shooting. Though he eloquently breezes past defenses like nothing and pr...

Douglas Speedy Costa

I was looking to buy Douglas Costa however fortunately I found him in the guaranteed Calcio A SBC. I play him as a right midfielder in the formation 4-1-2-1-2 with wings and not cm's. Until now I have only used him as a sub, haven't started a game once and so this is what I can say about him. I play him with an instruction to come back on defence so he helps the RB and he does the job, even if his defensive work rate says t...
