87 - OTW

5.0

Possibly the best player on the game

By mikeoxlong, 10-11-2017

With this card being newly upgraded to 85 rated, this once monstrous card is now unbelievable. The pace increase to 92 sprint speed makes using a hawk card on him even more deadly, giving him 97 SS and 99 AC.

The hawk chem style also makes Mbappe a deadly finisher, mimicking those of R9, messi, and R7, with only penalties falling below the 80 mark.

Mbappe's dribbling got a +3 too, making his changes of direction whilst on the ball ridiculous, making almost 90 degree turns without changing pace, meaning he's destructive when cutting in from a run down the wing, and his ball control being 90 means the ball barely leaves his foot when precision dribbling.

A +6 to his passing makes him the perfect attacking threat when acccompanied by a LF and RF in the box, as he can tap small balls in a ticky tacka method before letting rip with his 91 shot power and 95 finishing (thanks to hawk).

Finally, his increase in defending stats and Physical stats makes him that much more threatening, as if the opponent managed to get the better of his 81 strength (hawk) and is dispossessed whilst in or near the box, then his slightly increased tackling ability helps considerably to get those cheeky extra tackles in, and often has put him through on goal again, which with some attackers who have defending stats in the 20's or 30's, you don't get.

All round this upgrade has given him that slight edge over other OP strikers in the game (G Jesus for example) and in my opinion puts him amongst the Icons. With undoubtedly more IF's to come, this OTW card is possibly going to be the best card on the game.... until TOTS.

Wonder Kid

First things first - This is my first and probably only player review dedicated to a player who has transformed my game.So as most people, this stage in Fifa is all about getting those TOTS's and fitting them into your team. I had Sane and wanted to pair him with Mbappe (My two favourite players in real football atm). So out of impulse I splashed 600k for Mbappe when I didn't pack him in my untradeable Lig...

Kylian Mbappé

Possibly the best striker of FUT 18

After buying 97 Mbappe few days ago and playing 20 games with him I've been nothing else but blown away by this card. His in-game stats speak for itself, they are better than anyone else's .Combine that with his Technical Dribbler, Speed Dribbler and Finesse shot traits and you get a perfect striker. To put it in perspective, TOTS Son now feels like a bad player playing next to him.He is great on the ball,...

Kylian Mbappé

This youngster is unstoppable..

We are just at the start of FIFA 18, and loads of great cheap players are to be discovered. But today, I will try to give my honest, un-biased opinion of Kylian Mbappé, the 18 year old kid from Bondy, France who just signed at Paris Saint-Germain on a year long loan with a 180 million euro buy clause. This card might be the MOST EXPENSIVE 83 rated card i...
