81 - IF
4.0
A+ Pairing For Boateng
By wisehandsFC, 24-01-2018

Currently sitting at 11.5k, Hinteregger is a steal of a CB if you're running a Bundesliga squad. He is playing in a 4-3-2-1 with David Alaba to his left (love that green link) and Jerome Boateng to his right (with 2IF Kimmich at RB, more green!).


Basically, this back line is an impenetrable fortress. As his defensive and physical stats were nothing to shake a finger at already, I applied a Catalyst chemistry style to speed him up and maximize his short passing and vision to ensure he gets the ball up the field. His Reaction stat number isn't impressive, but rarely seems out of position and is always there to put a foot out and stop oncoming attackers and through-balls.


Definitely give this card a shot -- hell, he's almost at discard value and one of the finest CB's I've played with this year. I'm going to continue experimenting with him in other formations, but he will definitely remain a staple in my main Bundesliga squad.


  • Strength
  • Long-shots
  • Positionally, he always seems to stop a rush up the middle
  • For a H/M CB, he doesn't noticeably push up the pitch.
  • Catalyst Chem - 84 Pace & 84 Passing
  • Overlooked card, relatively unknown player in the scheme of things
  • Tough to mesh in a hybrid squad (unless you're playing a Bundesliga back-line)
  • 6'0, not bad but not great.
