Neymarrr = GOAT
By Theboyyoulove2h8, 01-01-2019

I have used Neymar for 266 games, he has scored 374 goals and 184 assists (mostly weekend league and division 2 & 3 online matches) and believe me when I tell you this, he is the definition of a game changer. Before you continue reading this review, if you're second guessing buying him just go do it already!! Well, if you can afford him. I got him for 594k during the black Friday and he is worth every single penny.


This man can score a goal without facing the goal. I use him as my striker in a 4231 formation because he can shoot comfortably with either foot so it doesn't matter what angle you're at, simply just shoot. Neymar has one of the best finesse shots in the game and it becomes more overpowered if you use timed finishing. His composure and finishing in front of goal is just incredible, this man barely misses, and even when he does I believe thats just EA tryna make him a bit more realistic.


He is very similar to the icon Cruyff, his movement is second to none and has ability to escape tight situations where other players would've either fallen down or lost the ball. If you are a skiller type of player I need not explain to you why you need this man.


His passing is just a bit above average, he often can pick out long passes and cross the ball very well, but I do not focus on this aspect of his play. He is fast enough for any attacking role you have in mind for him, I use a Deadeye chem style on him which improves his shooting and passing because I didn't feel the need to increase his speed further.


He also does not run out of stamina often unless you use some sort of team press or constant pressure.


Defence for Neymar is non-existent, but I do not believe that matters at all unless you are Jose Mourinho.

He definitely feels stronger than 49, though he goes down easily in the box from heavy contact often leading to a penalty.


His shooting is OP from either foot.


His dribbling? We do not need to talk about this!!


Passing is just as good as any top player in the game.


Stamina is quite good.


(Irrelevant but- If your opponent sees Neymar on your team you already have the mental advantage in the match)

He is going to lose every single aerial battle unless EA wants to allow him win one.


I have to say this man does hit the bar once in every 5 shots, which is quite frustrating especially when he should be scoring.

Better than ever

So this year I told myself I would take Ultimate Team easy. Last year I wanted Ronaldo (R9) so bad that I was ready to sell my wallet in packs and I did but with probably the worst pack luck you can have... I never packed anything worth more than 150k so I promised myself I wouldn't do it again this year. I won't lie, I couldn't ressist to open 2 or 3 packs when I saw the Halloween cards and what was my su...

Best normal Gold card (except Ronaldo)

After packing Aubameyang I had enough coins to buy this guy and trust me, he´s a machine! Ingame I always play him as a left ST in a 4-1-2-1-2, so he has a bigger impact on the game in my squad. He dribbels and skills like nobody else in the game, his pace his decent and his shooting and passing is in the 90s too with the Deadeye Chemistry style. If he had strength, he would be a complete striker, but he unfortunately hasn...

One of the best

Neymar is one of the top rated players of FIFA 19, and for good reason. His base stats are phenomenal, with incredible pace and dribbling, as well as shooting and passing that are exceptional. Neymar also possesses the rare combination of 5* skills and 5* weak foot, which only adds to how lethal he is. Prior to using Neymar, my squads were typically Serie A or premier league, using players such as mertens, Dybala, inform in...
