Maradona 95 - Small bull

By Yayou33, 16-05-2018

Maradona 95 is not just a good midfielder, it's an excellent No. 10. I'm to a fan of the player ( too young, too claving)

His passes and dribbles are excellent. When he has the ball, the players around automatically make sharp calls (slantwise calls not the classic one - Playmaker trait?). His 5-star dribbling skills gives him a speed boost like Ronaldinho (I tested the 91). But the best is his shots. This year, I tested many attackers and, on this point, Maradona 95 is in my top 5 with CR7, Henry 93, Salah 98 and Son 92 (I have not tried R9 96 94). When it comes to shooting, Maradona has incredible characteristics. He has the traits Shot finesse and chip shot. His low driven shots are just ok. Lack of power limits the number of goals well outside the penalty area. But inside, no problem. Instead, I try finesse shots, with a curve of 94, it goes in 9 times out of 10.

As stated in the previous review, maradona is bullied by physical defenders. Indeed, the very high balance (98) combined with the relatively weak force (74) makes it not fall easily but ended up being caught the ball, which is a shame.

I found the solution: an architect style that further increases the quality of the pass and the physical. The increase in strength (89) and aggression (86) changes the balance of power.

Maradona becomes a little bull like a little TOTS Tevez in FIFA 16.

Thus, I succeed in repelling big powerful defenders. Where he lost the ball from the first touch of ball, Maradona retains the ball on 2 to 3 touches of ball under the pressure of defender like Ferdinand, Desailly and White, as long as you struggle with LT / L2.

I even managed to resist Ferdinand and put a chip shot in a very closed angle (probably the composure at 95 which ensures its regularity even under strong pressure), or to resist the larger midfielders (Vieira 88 91 and Rijkaard 90). Their insistence often ends with a fault.

The real defect of Maradona 95 is its size. Even if he takes balls of the head when the pressure is low, it is not his strong point.

Finally his endurance is limited. It is not possible to do 120 minutes. at 105, he is done.

For my part I make tactical changes to almost every game but this can be a problem for some.

This card deserves to be tested with the architect style. It modifies the player's abilities.
