Player Review

91 - TIF
4.5
Makes a Difference!
By Joni9089, 29-03-2019

I have never wondered to play James Rodriguez until I got his FUT Champions Player Pick card (the best card i have ever got by player picks btw) I wasn't sure about it when I put him in the squad with IF Goretzka who made him have 8 chemistry points. BUT, this card is AMAZING. You may say: "It's useless with its 78 pace", but it's really not like that. Yea, you can't win a run to ball with defenders like Varane, but you don't need. James' dribbling is good enough to pass every defender without even usuing sprint button. His shooting is also very good. He is not a killing machine in the box like CR7 but has good long shots, volleys and curve, which makes him possible to score beautiful finesse shots. And now the best thing about James Rodriguez. His PASSING!!! I played a lot of cards in the game but I have never met such a perfect passer, who assisted so many times my Cristiano Ronaldo. His defending skills are not important for me as I play him on CAM in 4-2-3-1. The physicality is not the highest too, but he doesn't need it that much. The only big con is his stamina. He is not able to play full 90 minutes without a change. I mostly played him in FUT Champions (usually I got Gold 2 or 3) and in division 4 and 3 in Division Rivals.

The Name is Bond, James Rodriguez.

So after 41 Games with this man, I´ve decided to write the first Review on this page instead of learning for my exams :DI am using him as a CAm in the 41212 paired up with TOTGS Lewandowski and sPotm Reus.

James

An incredible player. Incredible finessed long shots - if you can get him a meter of space on his left foot anywhere within 25 yards, chances are it's going in. I have him as a CAM - Thiago and Rakitic behind. Him and Rakitic together mean I can pick out a top corner on, left or right, from outside of the box.His passing is excellent - threaded through balls, short possession game with quick touches - does...

James Rodriguez (The Sniper)

What can I say about this card... He has single handedly won me majority of my games and gets me out of not so favorable odds. I am a HUGE James fan and has always had him on my FUT since Fifa 15. Most people will see a RW with 74 pace and instantly look past it. However, in FUT 19 slower players are actually usable and can be ABSOLUTELY deadly if used correctly. I start him at RW in the 4-2-4 with the Shadow chemistry and ...
