95 - SIF
Picked up SIf Neymar once he came out to replace Cristiano Ronaldo. I put them in comparison and saw that SIF Neymar is boasting better stats in several areas for a lower price so went for the switch. So, without further delay, here is my review of SIF Neymar after using him for nearly 200 games, mostly WL but also Div 2.
PACE (95) - it is absolutely what you would expect from 97 acceleration, the first steps are so fast that it is very easy to beat overaggressive players.
SHOOTING (90) - inside the box, outside, finesse, powershot - SIF Neymar has them all. Finesse is really the strong point, especially from outside the box.
PASSING (85) - i found this stat to be totally enough. Nothing flashy about the passing but always finds a teammate. Reliable and good.
DRIBBLING (98) - now this is where SIF Neymar really shines. He really does justice to the the 99 ball control, agility and dribbling stats. Gets out of tight situations that you would not expect anyone to get out of. All movement feels super smooth.
DEFENDING (33) - not why he would be in your team, Not much to say about this.
PHYSICAL (68) - this is the only stat that i found a bit inconsistent. At times, he feels like he has 80 strength because the agility combined with the speed makes him quite the pest and difficult to take the ball off of. Other times it feels like 40 as not the strongest CB easily pushes him to the ground and takes the ball. Overall i would say it is not a big problem and more often than not he feels stronger than the 60 strength stat that he has.
FUN FACTOR (100) - this player is the most fun player i have used in any fifa. And this year i have tried the 95 Pele and TOTY Ronaldo just to name a couple.
By the way, i never subbed him off in the weekend league and he lasted all 120 minutes with no trouble.
If you have the coins, PICK HIM UP. He will bring your team to a whole new level.
rapid
overall shooting (especially finesse)
amazingly smooth dribbling
fun factor is immense
can be used in several different hybrids
sometimes feels weak (not very often though)
