87 - Flashback SBC
As a AC Milan fan I did not think twice and I do the SBC in 3 minutes. He costs me 80k considering the non-tradeable items in my club. What can I say... wow.
Let's see the stats and the in-game feelings
Using the compare functions on Futbin you can see that he got all the stats balanced, very few under 80. Try to compare his with Baby Gullit and prepare to be surprised.
I put Deadeye on him, it will boost the passing stats because I use him as a CAM in a 4-1-2-1-2 narrow formation and I'm very satisfied of his in game feeling.
Pace: fast enough to play in all the mildfield position, you'll feel he's faster in game due his good positioning (boosted with the style)
Shooting: watch his goals on videos. OK you got an idea about what this guy can do. He perform the same in-game, he can takes screamers outside the box and he's good even closer the keeper, not clinical but good.
Passing and dribbling: I put the "technical" skills in the same cathegory because as CAM they got a huge weight on the final judgment. 4 skills are good, the dribbling stats could be better and this is the reason why I want to try even another style. With Deadeye he performs very well as assistman
Defending and Phisical: I read a lot of comments that blames his defending stats and some people compared him with Matuidi and say that the Frenchman is better as CDM... OF COURSE HE IS! Boateng is a offensive player, Max Allegri when he was the AC Milan manager use him as CAM and all the stats suggest it. Despite this, his defensive stats are pretty good for a player that stay in the last third of the pitch. His aggression and the tackle stats let him steal a lot of balls expecially on the first touch pressure tactics. last but not least: if you use correctly his stamina is not an issue. I got the same sensations with Kakà on Fifa 18, put low interceptions and stay in position in the player instructions and Kevin-Prince will have 50% stamina left on 70th. Use him as a CM without instructions and you'll need a spoon to collect his rests along the pitch.
Well balanced player, basically is a all-rounded offensive midfielder
No decent strong links, basically is a super-sub
