96 - Award Winner
I have an untradeable TOTY VVD; why did I complete the SBC for a slightly better card? Because I could and because Virgil Van Dijk is the best defender in the game. Is the POTY card that much better than the TOTY card? No. Is he worth the price to upgrade your POTM or TOTY VVD? Probably not. But should you? Ab-so-lute-ly. Virgil Van Dijk does things that no other defender can do. He can blatantly murder any attacker and the ref will pretend like it never happened. He has the size and athleticism that no other defender can match. He is capable of scoring with his right leg at times and converts corners into goals at a high rate. He can dribble at a higher level than elite CDMs such as Vieira, Rijkaard, and Matthaus and is a better passer as well, all from the centre-back position. You will not find a better defender this year, but there are suitable partners for him such as FFS De Ligt, TOTY Varane, and TOTY Ramos.
My TOTY VVD had the following stats:
483 Games
45 Goals
8 Assist
3 Yellow Cards
The POTY card is on pace to better those stats in far less games played. If you don't have a Virgil card already, what are you waiting for? Don't miss an opportunity to get the best defender in the game for only 1 million coins weeks before his TOTS is released. You can't put a price on peace of mind.
