Player Review
88 - TOTS
First of all: When I say: ‘’Put it in a bowl of Rice, He will fix it’’ I literally mean he will fix it, This card is one of the best CDM’s I’ve used in this game. Every time I make a mistake when attacking and my opponent is about to counter attack Rice is already there to repair the damage. Put him on your team with the instruction ‘Cover Centre’ and he will always be able to earn back the ball within no time. His MED/MED work rates make him perfect for defending the middle of the field.
He reminds me a lot of Matuidi, just a better version of Matuidi except Matuidi is better at shooting but that’s irrelevant for a CDM like Rice.
Keep in mind this card is a Weekly Objective, he is/was genuinely a free card! Until this day he is definitely the best free TOTS for me, and I freaking love Onana TOTS.
Positions: CDM in an 4-1-2-1-2 (2) and a 4-2-2-2
Chemistry Style: Shadow
Used in: Weekend League, Division Rivals and Squad Battles
Individual Tactics: Stay back while attacking and cover center.
Games Played: 63 games. 5 goals, 3 assists.
Pace (9/10): For a CDM his pace is almost perfect, he feels faster than 80 pace in my opinion, I put a shadow on him and he can keep up with the most pacey players on the midfield.
Shooting (4/10): couldn't be bothered to be honest haha, I´m almost 100% certain that I have never even taken a shot on goal with him when I was playing serious. Just for the review I did try a couple of shots, let´s just say, he tried.
Passing (10/10): 99 SHORT PASSING AND 94 LONG PASSING, it is just absurd what kind of passing stats this card has. He is so good for me at displacing the play to the other side of the field. His passing accuracy in game is probably around 97%/100% a game. You can’t ask more from a defensive playing midfielder.
Dribbling (7/10): His composure of 96 makes him a reliable play-maker, doesn’t make too many faults at the back and he is actually pretty good at dribbling for someone who you expect to be a little more sluggish. He got 2 star skill moves but that's probably not the reason why you want to pit this card in your team. Nothing to complain about his dribbling, you get what you expect.
Defending: (10/10): He is always at the right place at the right time, his defending is so f**** good. Doesn’t matter who he is going up against, he will get that ball back. Came up against a lot of TOTS and a few TOTY this weekend and it doesn’t matter. 1 on 1 situations, through balls, interceptions. He is the one who is getting the ball back for you.
Physicality (10/10): Can only say that he will obliterate all the opponents 94 strength, 94 jumping, 89 aggression, always the one wo wins one on one situations based on that he never backs down in a duel. One of the strongest midfielders I’ve used this year on FUT.
Overall Rating 9,5/10.
