Wow...

So after a lot of debate with friends, I decided to try this card out. Sadly, Financially I'm not in the market for middle or prime Gullit :(

If I'm being honest I wasn't expecting much from this card, I run a 3-5-2, and I score A LOT with my mid-fielders, usually Pogba or Ballack but I bumped out Pogba to give baby Gullit a go.

MAN DID THIS CARD DELIVER THE GOODS BABY

I've never had so much fun playing with a card, his grace/composure combined with his ability to do everything made him a key player for my weekend league squad.

If this review gets a good amount of likes I plan on making a review video with highlights from a future weekend league.

Composure/Dribbling
I had always heard how composed and fluid Gullit was on the ball but I didn't expect to be blown away by it with his baby card. Around the box, or in it, he was such a danger to the opposition, his drag-backs and heel-clicks created loads of space for me to get off shots or passes, and he took shots on with such confidence, finishing left or right with power or finesse.

Positioning
Gullit was very patient with his runs, which fit my play style perfect. He got into attacking positions, not often making run ins behind, but always finding space to receive the ball and either shoot or find a good pass. Defensively Gullit was fantastic in the midfield, breaking up play, harassing CAMs as they tried desperately to get away from him, he truly does it all.

Presence
His presence was always felt in my games, just seeing his mop float around with his 6"3 frame gave you a feeling of confidence. He had a strange way of making the opposition more predictable, any time he was approaching the ball, many of my opponents would lose their composure and make a bad pass or dribble. Offensively he demanded a ton of attention and respect, opening up things for my strikers and Ballack to score.

Defensively
I think I've said enough about him defensively, just wanted to list it as a pro

Shooting

With a "hunter" chem style on him, his shooting is excellent, having a 5 start weak foot is SO dangerous in this game, being able to threaten a finesse shot from either foot gives you so many more options and makes it a lot easier to punish goal keeper movement

Stamina
You do have to conserve your stamina a bit throughout the game, not a card you can just hold turbo with and run around the pitch with. Isn't really too much of a problem if you have a more balanced play style.
