92 - Icon

4.0

Could be good but generally not worth the coins

By IamNotG4, 20-04-2018

In order to get another icon centre back to partner Rijkaard I crafted this 92 Nesta for 400k.I tried him for over 100 games and I felt he's definitely better than most CBs in this game but not really worth to spend that much money for a CB that's not perfect and have some significant weakness.First his pace is not really good but not bad either which means you cannot count on him to catch up with any clean through strikers.And the another thing has to be mentioned is his stamina, I know that 73 is good for most centre backs but it's still not enough combined with his 92 strength(stronger player tends to cost more stamina each sprint), he usually struggle after 75 mins.Also that 38 agility is not good news,because of he's so clumsy he can easily give way a penalty by clashing down opponent players in the box or even worse score own goals.However he do have some pros that made him a good defender, for example his Aerial Duels is very good wins almost every header no matter how tall the opponent player is.His defensive positioning is very good as well he never been caught out of position once and always in the right position at the right time and his 89 reactions help him a lot in making clearances.He's also good at blocking shots no matter close range or long range shots he seems like a wall in front of opponent strikers and he can make some important blocks in vital times that save you from conceding.

Aerial Duels ------ He wins header almost every single time and also very strong in corners to score heading goals.

Shot Blocking ------ He can block low drivens and long shots have him in front of goal is like have a movable wall.

Defensive Positioning ------ He never been caught out of position for me and always in the right place at the right time to make clearances.

Clumsy ------ Keep it in mind he's only got 38 agility and be cautious making tackles in box with him because he can easily clash down players and gives away penalties.He's also possible to score some incredible own goals.

Stamina ------ I know that 73 is OK for most CBs but for a player that have 92 strength is not enough(stronger player tends to cost more stamina each sprint).He will struggle after 75 mins despite 99 fitness.
