88 - Icon
So, i bought Maldini while the market was at a low. At first it was as an investment. I got him for 450 which is a good price compared to other icon LB's. Even though the price is so high for a LB, i cannot describe how good he has been for me.
Maldini is the complete defender for me. He wins almost every header, and attackers generally have a difficult time when facing him.
His pace makes him hard to outrun, and combined with his high level of defending, it makes him extremely good.
However, Maldini tends to be quite offensive sometimes, despite his M/H workrate, so be sure to keep him on stay back while attacking.
Somewhich which has suprised me very much is his offensive abillities. As mentioned he tends to go forward some times, but the times he has done so, he has been good. His shoot is really decent for a left back, and his crosses are just as good.
If you want to buy a LB, and you have the coins, i can only reccomend Maldini. At times it feels like having an extra CB.
