Thomas 'the Tower' Meunier

By Grymm, 28-12-2018

At 6'3 Meunier looks down on all the other puny wingbacks. Coupled with his strength he is a unique player in his position who is definitely worth a look.

Having played 644 games with him I especially like all the little things the card did for me. When defending corners Meunier usually took over the tallest opponent and very rarely lost a header.

He did not get out muscled, especially not by wingers but not even by the bulkier strikers. He also never got caught out up front like Marcelo does at times, the H/H seeming to bring a great balance to his game going froward/ staying back. And once every while he got me a goal from a corner, too.

Coupled with his solid defending (after applying the chem style of your choice), he is a great defender more then worth his salt.

His weak points are in my eyes his Agility/ Balance as well as his Acceleration. His turns feel quite cumbersome and he is just generally not limber, his low Accel means that if you get caught unawares he will just not catch up with anything simply because it takes him two or three steps to get to full speed.

The only reason I am selling him is because I pulled a red Lala who is almost the opposite, which makes Meuniers strengths and weaknesses even more obvious.

Lala feels less than a the tank that Meunier is but he likes to go forward and is far to small to be of much use when defending corners. If both were tradable I would most likely stick with Meunier just because of the unique skill set he has, which makes him a player I would happily recommend to anyone looking for a great defender.

best box to box midfielder in the game!!!!1

Cheeky Cheeky card

I was very hesitant to make this purchase. Start him up top to get the link with Mbappe and Neymar. Then switch him back to a cdm/cm. Him and FB vidal share the role and oh my word this card can do everything. Been using him in d3 rivals and he makes me moist. Dont expect him to score every game but like other reviews say he is the absolute box to box midfielder. Strongly strongly encour...

The dinasty continues

Well, I think at least 40% of people who came here used Meunier IF or FUTMAS in 18. So, the answer that you guys are looking for is: YES, Meunier still an awesome RB. I'm going to 50 games with him this year, plus at least 200 in FIFA18 and can't decide which attribute I like more. The combination of
