IF Sigurdsson is the best value for money CAM

By NCT939, 06-10-2018

Before getting Gylfi I have played with Ozil who is horrible physically and shooting was poor.... Saw Silva as a similar type player so looked at Sigurdsson who just got an IF with very solid stats in everything other than pace (which is almost irrelevant with the current gameplay)... Since buying him he's hit 7 goals in 6 games, 6 goals of which were outside the box and 1 was a beautiful header.

In my experience with him his pace hasn't really affected how he's played other than not really making him a running option for Jesus (my ST)... And to be honest I have more confidence taking a long shot than taking a 1v1 with the current shooting mechanics which is where Sigurdsson excels. In addition to this, his passing and dribbling are both respectable as his long balls out wide were really effective with the occasional through ball to my striker down the centre (with a good success rate). This always depends on the players ability but his free kicks are strong as expected and despite no scoring so far I've come close and he's for sure not a player to overlook in terms of set pieces. The main difference I found between him and other CAMs with the exception of Alli, is that he's got impressive physicality while having decent dribbling and agility.

As the main CAM in a 4312, 41212, 4411 etc. He is the best overall player in the PL for the price in my opinion

90 long shots

89 free kicks

87 stanima

Overall physicality is very good

4* weak foot

Ball control is good for driving awkward passes to him

62 pace (minor)

3* skills

Doesn't have the agility and dribbling of a shorter player
