Player Review
90 - Normal
Saddle up boys, because I'm about to tear this Sunday League dropout a new one. Before I start, keep in mind that I literally just created a FUTBIN account at 1:00 am solely to write this. I've played with Courtois for 91 games now to get chem for Varane and Ramos, and every game added to the tally is a mistake. I've played with a lot of keepers in this game, and let me say Courtois is by FAR the most frustrating "high end" keeper in the game. He might as well be cross-eyed because he can't track a floater down the middle if his life depended on it. His reflexes feel way too slow and his positioning is garbage. He comes out on corners and will catch anything in the 6 yd box, but if the ball is played outside of his reach, he always keeps coming out and in the blink of an eye the ball is behind him in the goal. Beware of any winger's run on the goal line because if the ball is played across on the ground anywhere near him he goes full on Phil Jones and can't help but bash it into his own net. Shots regularly go in right over his shoulder as he constantly uses the opposite hand to make a save (i.e tries to save a shot on his right by bringing his left arm across his body). His kicking is useless as he constantly boots the ball out of bounds, and for the love of God do not try to use him to play out of the back. Overall, the only pro of this card is the chem, and for the sake of mental health, do NOT use him.
Good links for chem.
