85 - IF

4.5

Perfect budget Serie A LB

By FutHdR, 27-11-2018

TotW announcement came out, and I was buzzing. Wanted to do my first WL and needed a good LB as I normally play 352. So, outside of Sandro there were no good alternatives until this guy arrived.

Check it out, Kolarov with shadow has:

90 acceleration to git gud at the pacey wingers most players are using
94 (!) crossing
92 in defense overall
82 in physical overall
187 cm in height, which is f*ing tall for a wing back

He accelerates as fast as you want him to do. His work rates can seem to be a bit of an issue but I haven't experienced any during WL with stay back while attacking. He wins every header and hasn't been out-muscled either. He provided around 8 assists during WL, mainly corners and crosses. For the bargain of 25k you have this wonderful player in your squad. O and when he does come forward, he has 86 long shots and 94 shot power so just give it a go! FK accuracy is also high with 89.

You don't need a LB? How about an ingame rating of 89 at CDM with powerhouse? Or at CB with 88 rating? He could also be a LM with 85 if you put an engine on him. In other words, he is incredibly versatile for 25k and if he doesn't stay in your starting 11 (not sure which valid reason you can find but still) he is a very well rounded substitute. So, why are you still here? Get in on this bad ass bargain!

High acceleration
Very tall
Crossing
Good defense and physical stats
Very well rounded with a focus on defending

If I need to mention one I'd say his sprint speed, but has been an issue whatsoever for me.
