88 - UCL LIVE
4.0
Marek Hamsik the most solid player
By CescBaguettes, 01-02-2019

I initially bought Hamsik because I thought his price will rise as he receives upgrades in the Europa League and could sell him at a later date. Instead of leaving him in the club i decided to use him in a team and wow im so happy i did. He has proved to me that as a CM he is undroppable and i wont be selling him until playing with his final upgrade (which may be a 90+). I use him as the left CM in a 4-1-2-1-2 narrow and he is very good.


Pace

His pace isnt a highlight of the card, not too slow but not too fast. Its just enough and can be boosted with a chem style if it really matters to you.


Shooting

His shooting is what surprised me the most. His finishing and long shots feel 85+ and coupled with a 5* weak foot you cant go wrong. He makes the overlapping runs from midfield always at the right time rarely getting caught out for counter attacks and scoring important goals.


Passing

I dont really know how to judge his passing, only that he very rarely misplaced a pass and his 5* weak foot meant he was never in an awkward position.


Dribbling

For someone that is 6ft tall you expect them to feel a bit heavy and sluggish. Not Hamsik. Whilst not a Messi by any means, he does enable you to pivot and dodge a few tackles. His skill moves i found to be the biggest downside to the card. Having only 3* means La Croquetas and other moves are out of the question. Dont expect to be going on skill and dribble runs with this player, rather expect him to stitch team moves together.


Defending

First off, his High/Medium work rates mean he wont be sitting deep and acting as a CDM, he wants to get forward. Dont use him as a CDM he wont do well. His defending is however, decent for a CM and CAM (the best positions for him). Can put tackes in and make interceptions but just not consistently. His defending feels like his stats.


Physical

Albeit 6ft, his physical stats arent that of a milinkovic-savic. It does feel like he relies on his height to bully opponents, which he will do to most players. His header-winning-ability is decent, not amazing. And his stamina is pretty good and will only improve with more upgrades.


All round Hamsik is a great card and is worth the 200-250k that he is worth. Stats will only get better as Napoli inevitably progress through the Europa league which will make him a steal for that price.

Marek (HAM)sick

I bought this Hamsik card only to get strong link with IF Insigne. I thought Insigne would be the showstopper out of those two, but how wrong was I. Hamsik is everything you can ask from the complete midfielder. Firstly, his attacking game is suberb. 5* wf combined with his shooting stats is the key. He has scored 15 goals in 20 games from the CM position in Division rivals. His passing is very accurate and he seems to find...

The Cheap prime Socrates

Hamsik is the most complete midfielder Ive used all year. Ive tried Socrates but this insane sbc card is 10x better in every way. he has amazing long shots and even better build up play. Hes a maestro and a playmaker and every pass he makes hits the target. his stamina is great and you will notice him make important tackles and score important goals. I highly recommend anyone who is loo...

Best Cam I ever used

This Marek Hamsik Is 100% sure the best player I ever used in any FIFA. When you play him at cam he does everything, he gives assists, score a lot of banging goals and he make a lot of interceptions. His ball control is insane, and so is his dribbling even I am not a real dribbler in this game. You would get afraid from his only 69 balance but you don't really notice it, Overall he is just a must have for your team at CAM
