89 - SBC

4.0

BIG SAM

By Anasinho16, 16-03-2019

After I had used the normal version of Umtiti in FIFA 19, I decided to go for his sbc, though I hadn’t the coins to complete his SBC. So after the rewards I completed him and he has been a beast for me. Actually one of the best defenders I have ever used. He is pretty fast and agile for a center back, which is great, but he has also great jumping and heading accuracy, these 4 stats make him very useful and extremely annoying for the opponent. His defending (with sentinel) makes him impeccable. The only bad thing about him is the SBC, it’s extremely expensive, especially the silver players that are needed for this SBC. I also think that EA should have given him a bigger upgrade than this, as he’s been injured for almost the whole season and it's very unlikely that he will receive an IF or other special card. I have used many center backs this year, including 87 Umtiti, SBC Skriniar, Prime Nesta, Otamendi, Sánchez, 86 Sokratis and 84 Izzo. I’d say he’s easily better than all of them, except maybe Prime Nesta.

Umtiti worth it? YES

So a lot of u guys wants a review about Umtiti... I got him untrade 2 weeks ago paired him with Alba and Varane. He's strong & fast enough to stop OP strikers. He save my *ss a lot of times with extraordinary tackles. He wins the headers vs tall strikers 10/9. He scores me 10 goals all of them after corners headers, bicycle kicks... Top3 deffender in LALIGA so i recommended him if u don't have the coins for Varane or R...

Samuel Umtiti

Absolute Beast

Packed him on the web app at the start of the year and he hasn't left my squad since, played 167 of my 184 games total. Im not personally an amazing player (1500 skill rating and Gold 2/3 in Champs) but i don't have a problem defending with him and Hernandez together. Played him alongside Varane, Bailly, Lenglet and IF Hernandez.His pace and strength together make him unbeatable, most strikers just get bul...

Don't brush over Umtiti...

I nearly never tried Umtiti because (as I imagine many other people have done) I looked at his height and pace and thought he wouldn't fit the game. You're usually looking for those tall yet fast CB's like Varane or Sanchez. But after being surprisingly disappointed by Varane and Ramos (they weren't bad, just expected much more), I decided to give him a chance. Now I have over 400 games with him and he's one of the oldest p...
