90 - TIF

4.5

Super card - devastating when used correctly

By GCBH19, 04-04-2019

This guy is awesome if you take advantage of his strong stats. I was lucky to pack him from a free pack - Argentinian link with Aguero so he slotted straight into my team.

He has a brutal left foot - his 95 shot power means drill shots are especially effective, particularly if you time it green.

Obviously, the 2* week foot is the main downside to this card. You need to actively try and take shots with his left foot - his right foot can score but its obviously very unreliable.

However, the rest of his card is so impressive that his poor weak foot hardly matters. 5* skill moves is a nice plus - gives you total freedom - he skips away from defenders with ease.

I've tried out several chem styles and several of them have been especially effective. I personally use a Hunter on him; even though it's the mainstream chem style, it makes his pace immaculate and boosts that 82 finishing up to 87. Equally, a sniper/deadeye is also excellent if you're not interested in improving that pace any more.

Immaculate pace and passing

Great dribbling, although a chem style boost in this area is worthwhile.

Good stamina for a striker - 86 means he easily lasts the full 90 mins, even with high/med work rates

5* skill moves is a massive plus

95 shot power makes drill shots OP

5'11 and 86 jumping means he can win some headers, although I found he is best used shooting from feet not head.

2* weak foot - makes his card one dimensional, and good opponents will predict that you'll try and shoot with his strong foot.

82 finishing - definitely needs a boost - 82 isn't competitive enough at this stage of the game.

Pretty much nothing else is 'bad' - this is a VERY HIGH END CARD

TOTS Di Maria

I got lucky and pulled this card in a 3 player upgrade pack (I actually pulled a duplicate a few days later in the 81+ upgrades and had to dump it into an SBC since both were untradable).Looking at the stats on the card and the traits, right away I knew I had to try him and he wouldn't be just high rated SBC fodder. He's got pace, 5* Skills, and 90+ in the key offensive stats. The one negative on paper is ...

ANGEL

I was looking for a good LM in my Ligue 1 3-5-2.Niang 84 sbc wasn't relesead yet, so I decided to try Di Maria, i was not really positive because in FIFA 17-18 the former United player normal version disappointed me. But Angel after the second match started to play as a champion.His dribbling is not the best of the game but he is pretty fast and skillful.He has perfect shots and he's perfect if y...

Not usable at ST

I bought this card to replace the ELMOTM Falcao that has served me faithfully for over 350 games. I was optimistic at first since I'd had a good experience with his 88 LW card but boy was I surprised at how truly awful this card was. For context I am a Gold 1/2 player and I play DR in Division 2 or low Div 1. I forced myself to suffer through 10 games of ST to review this card and then quickly sold him when his price had re...
