85 - SBC
I never really used Van Dijks normal card due tho the fact he has High attacking W/R.
I didn't know this card was coming out as the leaked NO.17 was Bakambu but as soon as i saw this card i decided to risk it. All in all it cost me about 50k with items i already had in the club.
He's so big and powerful and so hard to get by, he's great from corners at both ends and his High ATW doesn't affect the way he plays. For me he is definitely the best CB in the league and i will always make my squads around him.

High Attacking W/R but doesn't affect him
First of all, I, like i guess anyone else, didn't expect him to be in SBCs. I was gonna do Koscielny as he was supposed to be in SBCs but when i saw Van Dijk i couldn't resist.
Never used his normal card, I was using Koscielny's normal gold card, but I went for him instead of waiting for Kosc SBC.
After a couple of games i can say that he's absolute TANK. His strength, tackling, height is outstanding. No other player EVER affected my games as much as he apart from legend Larsson.
Comparing him to Boateng or Bailly or Sokratis i really can say... they're not even close. You can't mess with him. Either you pass as soon as you see him or you're gonna lose the ball.
His heading is insane, i used to concede a lot of goals from crosses... well not anymore.
About his speed... i didnt really need to use it that much because he doesnt even let anyone to go past him, but he can suprise, especially with Shadow
Also i don't think workrates affect defenders at all, he's H/M, i've never seen him out of position, Bailly with M/H goes much more forward.
