91 - TOTS
5.0
All around amazing LB
By aadz0r, 22-05-2018

I've used Alex Sandro's regular card pretty much since the game came out for some reason he was my most consistent player so I never really thought about subbing him out. After getting Wendell in my TOTS SBC however, I really liked the stats and put him in there and man oh man, is he good. Granted, I've only used him for a couple of WL and Online seasons games, but he has literally not once been beaten on pace and his physical is really good for his size. Also seems to win more headers than you'd expect, and puts out great passes and crosses. Oh, and to top it off, even if you do get beaten by a skill move or whatever, he recovers so damn quickly, most wingers will have to go through you twice. All in all, he's pretty much all I look for in a wing-back so I can't imagine me switching him out again. His only downside, as you probably would have guessed from his stats is his shooting. Not an issue for me since I don't generally get my wing-backs in shooting positions, but if you do, he's probably not your guy.


While 190K is quite a lot for a wing-back, I would definitely recommend to get this guy if you are getting sick of OP right wingers constantly crushing you, or just looking for an upgrade on LB. I guarantee, this guy will not disappoint you. Btw, I now use him with Anchor, but he was doing great with just the basic chem as well.

  • Amazing pace
  • Great physical for his size
  • Great passing/crossing
  • Just great all round LB
  • 190K for a LB is quite a lot
  • His shooting isn't great

Best LB in the game?!?!
By TheTrueBlueCFC, 23-05-2018

I packed Wendell through the guaranteed Bundesliga TOTS SBC and I have to say he has far exceeded my expectations. I have been using regular Alex Sandro for a very long time and was very convinced that he was the best LB in the game. Until Wendell came along! So far, Wendell has been the most efficient LB in my opinion, easily shutting down wingers and forwards as well as utilizing his blazing pace to lock down even some of the fastest players like Neymar and Lozano. There have been numerous times as well when I have been caught off in a counter and Wendell definitely is a lifeline on his own to delay the ensuing attack. Not to mention, playing alongside with my Prime Desailly definitely makes defending much easier in the pace department. I do have Anchor on him as I see that there's not much point to increasing his pace and defending as he's already very good in both of those departments. Rather, I wanted to amp up his physicality (85) since it's his lowest but needed attribute than shooting which is not that necessary in my opinion. My only issue was that his stamina does display as 90 in stats, but it seems more like 85 as he normally gets tired in ET and loses a lot after games.

  • Blistering Pace
  • Strength (70) feels more like 85+ with Anchor
  • Excellent passing
  • Great dribbling (keeps ball close to him)
  • Makes great overlapping and supporting runs at the right time
  • Can win decent amount of defensive headers despite height (5'9") and jump stat (80)
  • Killer combo if you have him alongside a fast CB
  • Shooting
  • Stamina
  • Little too pricey
