So I bought TOTS Pjanic after I decided to move away from the PL to Calcio A and I remembered that I really liked Pjanic at CAM in my Calcio A starter squad, so I just bought him for around 230k just to see if I still liked him after using the likes of players like Eriksen and Heung Min Son in the middle CAM position in the 4-2-3-1 and my god what a beast is Pjanic. I used him in the weekend league and went 36 goals and 39 assists with him, afterwards I packed Neymar in the Ultimate TOTS SBC and decided to drop Pjanic to RCM in a 4-3-1-2 with Neymar as the CAM and this might have been the worst decision in FIFA ever made, gone were the slick passes, insane long shots and godlike skill runs, all that was left were the sharp passes he could give from anywhere to anyone and that was about it, I tried him in a lot of different positions after that and I couldn't find any better than middle CAM in the 4-2-3-1, I had to drop him afterwards because he was outmatched by Neymar, really enjoyed Pjanic though.

Today I purchased Pjanic TOTS for 195k and played 15 games with him. The stats on his card looks insane and he fits perfect in my Calcio A Squad.

Pjanic plays along Allan IF and Florenzi FB in the left CM.

At first I´ve tried an Anchor chem. style on him, cause Pjanic comes out as an CDM, but please dont play Pjanic as CDM. His physical stats, even with Anchor, are not as good on the field as they look on his card.

He is not bad in defending, has very good interceptions but he feels a bit weak.

Next I´ve tried an Engine, he performs ok, but not as well as I thought.

I nearly sold Pjanic cause his price was not worth it in my opinion (in fact that I could buy Blanc 85 for 200k or Petit 88 / del Piero 87 who are a bit more expensive).

But then I decided to buy a Hunter and give him a last chance, and yeah - now he was my man in midfield. I just played 4 games with Hunter and he scores twice (Devision 2). His finesse shots are insane, a 25 meter finesse lowered over the keeper exactly into the corner.

Pjanic is the best passer I´ve played so far in FIFA 18 (better than Pirlo 91), he nearly never misses a pass, in most games he had 100% passing accuracy. He is even really agile and with his insane passing and dribbling he is a complete and very well performing midfielder.

If I would not play Hagi in CAM, I would play Pjanic right there, I think he would perform very well on CAM.

I was lucky enough to pack this guy in the guaranteed Calcio A TOTS SBC. He fitted straight into my team and I played him RCM in a 4-1-2-1-2(2). Despite falling 3-0 down inside 15 minutes, this is where Miralem Pjanic came into his own. He grabbed an assist, laying a perfect through ball to Bobby Firmino. Then, he bent a perfect finesse shot into the top corner without TOTS Ter Stegen even moving. He grabbed 2 more goals and another assist to turn the game around for me leading 5-3 after 40 minutes. My opponent then decided to rage quit

Overall, even though I packed him untradeable, he is value for money. He has more stats than prime Gullit and you can get him for under 200k. He can shoot, pass, dribble and even tackle. The best midfielder I have ever used.

A brief review, as I agree with previous reviews of him. The one line version- as a CM/CDM he is certainly solid but not particularly remarkable, as a CAM he is definitely an eye opener, and at his price (180k at time of writing) is strong value. I play him in 4-1-2-1-2 (2) with TOTS Allan (also a steal at 200k, I sniped him at 170k), SBC Hamsik and TOTS Torreira as my LCM/RCM. As you can see, I'm not a rich player so I go for the value players.

I felt that at CM I didn't notice much difference between him and 86 Milinkovic-Savic or 87 Nainggolan, and as CDM I much prefer Allan or Kante (sweaty I know). He didn't get forward enough until I switched him to CAM, where he is a threat with any shot within 25m. He's better as a CAM where it better utilises his shooting, and where his defending and tracking back are real strengths, and of course his vision/passing is great, as opposed to playing him as a CM/CDM asked to move forward to shoot sometimes. I have Anchor on him as I feel I don't need to boost his shooting.

Let me start with the face card stats

1) The Stats look excellent on card except pace but trust me he dose not play like that

2) Passing is good but not what it should be..I mean it does not feel like 97

3) Pace is more than is 88 SIF but feels the same on this TOTS card

4) Only Stamina feels same as whats on the card

5) Long Shots and Shot Power are great!

6) I would suggest go for his 88 rated card

Don't know why people are giving such exceptional reviews for him
