87 - SIF
4.5
Beast defender
By mcnick1, 28-11-2017

He is very good at defending and intercepting, I switch him with Bailly but Mustafi does not feel slower and seems much more focused on positioning than Bailly, who I see is sometimes vulnerable with though balls. Also a good header, gets barely beaten in the air by strikers. Will be my starter from now on.

Best CB i've used
By MegaParTy, 28-04-2018

Well, where should I start? Maybe with this:



HE IS THE BEST CB I'VE USED THIS FIFA, i even was lucky enough to pack puyol 90, and still mustafi was the biggest wall in my defence, when playing alongside him.


He is not the fastest, but with anchor, he gets super strong, gets fast enough to get back when needed, and one thing that impresses me: he can slide tackle the attacker in the back and still easily win the ball, with no foul, if you are careful of course

SLIDE TACKLE


STRENGTH


Standing tacke


Defensive headers


Price/Quality ratio

Speed ( Not the worst, but could be better )


Attacking headers ( He most of the times can't win headers in corners, he sometimes scores in corners, but I mean, he's not an alderweireld, who very often scores when i have a corner )

Outstanding CB If You Have The Coins
By fluffy44, 30-01-2018

SIF Mustafi is one of the best PL CBs in the game. He's fairly cheap for an 87 rated PL IF, but still rather expensive for a CB. He is short, so I would recommend pairing him with someone taller, I pair him with Bailly and that partnership is outstanding. Of the shorter PL CBs he's second-best, ahead of IF Ake but behind IF Azpi, which makes since considering his price. If you have unlimited budget Azpi is better, but Mustafi does the job well.

  • Defending, wins the ball consistently and performs very well in crucial moments
  • Physical, really good strength, decent enough stamina for a CB
  • Passing, 85 short passing is exceptional for a CB and he can play out of the back well
  • Pace, actually feels faster than 71, more like 76-77
  • Work rates, perfect for a CB
  • Height, relatively obvious, can be helped if paired with a tall CB

SIF Mustafi Review
By erich10, 30-11-2017

SIF Mustafi is an overall very solid defender, and shouldn't disappoint. His decent passing stats come in very handy. His pace didn't seem to be a problem at all. However, due to his height, he may not win every header, but his 89 jumping can compensate for that.

The Absolut Defender!
By Karkaleiro, 21-12-2017

So, I 've tried almost every good defender in the game this year, except from the Icons. Chiellini (beast), Sergio Ramos (not a big fan), Boateng (beast too). ion

For me Mustafi is by far the best in 1v1 situations.

Some of his interceptions are almost like goals for me.

He is not fast, he is not very agile and he is short for a centre back, I know all of these.

BUT...

He wins at least 90% of the headers, he never plays a wrong pass (alongside with FUTMAS Azpilicueta make my day in my tiki-taka playstyle) and he has something that makes up for every negative he has...:

POSITIONING. This guy almost predicts my opponents next move.

ps: I only use him in Weekend League and Daily Knockout Tournament games.
