The Philosopher

By KFCManager227, 11-04-2019

Socrates is a ~~Greek~~ Brazilian god amongst mere mortals. He is everything Pogba aspires to become. The only thing EA could do to "balance" this card was give it 4 star skill moves and mediocre jumping; otherwise, he would be unstoppable. With an engine chem style, Socrates will majestically glide past defenders and ruin their whole careers with only a few swift movements. He's a huge, physical presence who can dribble, shoot, and pass like no other. Oh, and he's also fast. If you like having deities on your team, I would highly recommend the one named "Socrates".

Feels like he has as much as 95 pace with engine chem style due to his long stride and high agility
Incredible long shots, volleys, and timely headers
Perfect Passing
Perfect Dribbling; rarely gets mauled and loses possession due to low balance
Huge body and physical presence

Sometimes feels as though you are role playing Ronaldinho in the Nike commercial and want to repeatedly clang shots off the crossbar, but could be attributed more to bad coding than anything
Is occasionally dead by the 70-75th minute despite having 95 stamina and not contributing much on defense
Can get out-jumped often with his 71 jumping despite being 6'4" (can be fixed with hawk if you want to sacrifice all the huge boosts engine gives you)

The Doctor

So after seeing some good things about this card on twitter I decided to try his loan card and what can I say, this man is a machine. I changed my formation just because of him to 4231 and I don't regret it. I play him as a CAM behind Ibra and he is fantastic. His shooting is amazing with both feet due to the 5* WF, his passing is always on point, he is tall and wins headers, a fantastic dribbler and has 95 stamina s...

Perfect Cam

Hello everybody! And welcome to another player review!! We haven't done another review since CR7, but man, this guy deserves it.He is so fucking good, we previously tried his 89 version and man, we fell in love with him. We knew we would do his prime sbc as soon as it came out and when we saw the optimus prime, We literally got a boner. As soon as the sbc dropped we did it (and became poor, but doesn't mat...

WOW

After many long hours of trading, weekend league and saving up coins from div rivals, I decided to use my hard earned coins on his SBC. At first I was terrified he would not meet my expectations, but he exceeded them by far. His SBC is very expensive, but IMO he is worth it. In hindsight I would gladly pay around 3 mill for this guy. Sócrates is a complete game changer. He will win you games and makes great runs in behind ...
