Super-Sub Brahimi The Houdini
By DenzelReinink, 03-06-2019

First of all: I don’t use him as a starting XI player because he doesn’t do the magic for me as a starter, but as a Super-Sub….. Damn, he is really good at creating space and with his 96 dribbling he is able to get past a lot of players when they are putting high pressure on him! Almost every game I bring him on in the 70th minute. He does not score that many goals for me or gave that many assist but I still rate him as a very important for my squad in the last part of the game.


Keep in mind, this card is/was a free to get card. For a free card, this is freaking insane.


Positions: CAM in a 4-1-2-1-2 (2) and RAM in a 4-2-2-2

Chemistry Style: Catalyst, purely to bring his speed and passing to the ultimate stage.

Used in: Weekend League

Individual Tactics: Stay Forward

Games Played: 20 Games played, 3 goals and 3 assists.


Pace (7/10): With the 92 acceleration Brahimi is a very explosive player but due to the lack of sprint speed you can feel that he can be caught up by a lot of defenders. Still 85 pace isn’t slow, It suedes him well.


Shooting (7/10): Maybe it is the fact that I don’t use him that much for shooting but mostly for creating space and opportunities for his teammates because he only scored 3 goals in 20 games for me. On the other hand as a super-sub that gets only about 15 to 20 minutes a game you can’t expect him to score loads of goals. I did recon that his long shots weren’t that good as I hoped for, 90 long shots is quite high and for the times he made a shot I noticed 9/10 balls went straight towards the goalkeeper, easy safe. One on one is his spot, scored 3 goals for me in important one on one situations. All of them were 90th minute goals, 96 composure will make sure that these one on one goals will go in.


Passing (9/10): With the Chem style ‘’Catalyst’’ his passing stats are insane, a really must have on him if you want to play him as an explosive super-sub on the number 10 spot. But god he does the job for me. Was actually surprised that he only gave 3 assists in 20 games but damn, he feels so creative at the ball and al the passes are accurate. This comes in really handy when you’re at the end of the game!


Dribbling (10/10): 96 dribbling without a chem style is insane. With his height, insane agility and dribbling he is one hell of an agile player to come up against with. He doesn’t need the strength to face one on one situations against the likes of van Dijk when he has these dribbling stats. He feels so fast on the ball and turning is a major pro on this card.


Defending: (6/10): Couldn’t care less actually, if he is playing, he is playing to attack and not to defend. Genuinely have no idea how he plays in the defence.


Physicality (6.5/10): Really love his stamina, you can run for the whole last part of the game if you bring him in as a super-sub. Strength is low but didn’t expect him to muscle of van Dijk or David Luiz. Didn’t annoy me too much to be honest.
