At first I was afraid to buy Kondogbia, but after I gave him the chemistry style (Shadow), I felt like I was playing with a very fast tank.

He can run fast, deliver smart balls, any player who comes towards him is sorry for that because Kondogbia is getting the ball.

This card haunted me for the first week of Fifa. the price for an 82 rated card? The hype? Is he worth it. He must be, but perhaps not? I want to try.. But what if his price drops?

Forget the thinking. But the damn card. I play him as a CM in a 4-3-3(2) formation. So he is very attacking for me. I can only hint at his defensive capabilities but with his workrates.. please don't waste him!

I bought him at the very start because all I ever saw was that he was the meta. Kondogbia was the best player in Fifa. 2 months later and I still do not see it. He has TWO STAR weak foot. I don't understand how a professional footballer is given a two star by FIFA. His trait is literally "avoids using right foot." His passing is affected by this drastically. He makes this worst passes ever and his left foot can barely do them much better. He will save you though running back and bodying the player off the ball. That's all. Suggested player is Arturo Vidal. Much better shooting and passing and defending. 4 star weak foot. Lacks some physicality but fix that with a chemistry style of your choice.

What a player. Seriously. He's insane. I haven't used Gullit and probably never will as I'm a poor boi, but I guess this is what it feels like. You want to play him as a CM? Sure. CDM? Hell yeah. CB? Oh god yes. CAM? Okay. Striker? Sure. Goalkee- actually no, don't ever play him as a goalkeeper. Let's move onto the review.

PACE

Not shocking or anything. Pace isn't really important this F|IFA so you don't feel any issues. It's okay.

SHOOTING

This is where the fun begins. His long range left foot shots are out of this world! The issues begin at close range finishing, ALTHOUGH he does score from there as well. Scored some right foot goals for me too, even though he has 2 star weak foot.

PASSING

Really good short range passes. His long passes aren't anything special.

DRIBBLING

Pretty good dribbling. When you first look at him he would seem like a guy with 2 star skill moves and 60 dribbling. That's wrong. He somehow has 4 star skill moves (not complaining :)) and his dribbling is ok. I like to do ball rolls and roulettes with him. And if skills don't work, he is such a strong lad he will push many players away. He sometimes feels kinda chunky and non agile.

DEFENDING

For a player of his price, incredibly good. He's amazing defensively! I play him at CM and he does well defensively even though he has got medium defending work rates and high attacking. His interceptions, standing and sliding tackles are so good. Might as well play him at CB, just tell him to stay back and he won't support the attack that often. Also can we take a while to appreciate his headers? Once he scored a header from like 20 yards. His heading is amazing.

PHYSICAL

Probably his strongest attribute. He is so strong he pushes almost anyone away (except Van Dijk, man i hate Van Dijk) with his 91 strength. His great jumping really helps him out on his magnificent headers. His stamina is ok on paper, but he tends to get tired kinda quickly (probably because he attacks a lot) but it's not that much of an issue.

Overall I can say he is one of the key players in my squad and I will never sell him. I can only imagine what his Europa League card is like... Jesus.
