Player Review
90 - Normal
I pulled Kroos as an untradeable the second day of early access. I was so excited I got him because in past FIFAs he was really good. I first played him as a CAM in 433(4) the first few days of FIFA 19 releasing and he wasn't too terrible but that was with me grinding squad battles. In 45 games, I scored 20 goals and assisted 20 . Doesn't seem bad, but almost all those goals and assists came from Squad Battles and I don't rate players based on how they play in Squad Battles. In SBs I would probably give him a solid 7/10 as the games are much slower paced than they are on Division Rivals. In Division Rivals, he just gets lost in the midfield. When he is on the ball his dribbling lets him down and he often makes heavy touches. His passing is also sub-par and he struggles to make even the simplest passes you would think someone with 89 passing would make. Once a SBC comes out requiring a high overall squad I will be putting him in it without hesistation.
Defending: Found it to be the best thing about him
Shooting: Not the greatest even with 5* WF but not a con
Free Kicks
Dribbling: Takes very heavy touches frequently
Passing: Very inconsistent, misses easy passes
Physical: Very weak, bad stamina
