Diego "the tank" Costa
By paulopaul, 21-01-2020

This SBC was a no brainer for me. I managed to do him for ~ 30k with some players i had untradeable in my club. I played about 7 matches in rivals Division 4 and all i can say this guy is totally worth it. I do not play weekeng league, so i probably won't test him there. I did a quick search and it seemes as of today, 21 January , there are no strikers that have 90+ shooting combined with 90+ physical other than mid and prime drogba and the TOTY cards.

Considering that this card is very very similar to prime Drogba which is about 1,8 m coins on Xbox, the value of this card is really really good.

The shot power and finishing on this card is absolutely insane, he scored in almost every match.

Hes a lethal finisher and can score from outside the box, Used in 4231 as a single striker with 2 pacey wingers he is really Icon-level target-man.

Yes you can say 7-8 matches are not enough for a review but my point is that you can do this card if you have a few players in your club. for 30-40k (like how i did him) it is worth it

Will he get you to elite 1 in WL ? NO !

Will he bring you fun ? YES!

This man is an animal!!
By Mancity234, 21-01-2020

Hey guys! This is my first review and I haven't been so excited to write a review until I got this card. I was thinking to myself, Is this guy really that bad? Since everyone is talking about how his agility is so bad and his balance. But don't look at those stats. He does turn like a tank, but this man turns into a train when he starts running. He will bull dog most defenders and finish with ease. I have Costa along side with Suarez and Iniesta in a 424. Suarez and Costa completely compliment each other. If you've enjoyed Costa back in FIFA14. Then you will love this card! If you're looking for pace, like Neymar or Mbappe, then you will not enjoy this man. He's more like Harry Kane but without the agility. Costa can definitely dribble though. It's not the best, but you'll notice how good the card is when you use it. I play in Division 4 almost in Division 3 thanks to this beast.

Cheap Overpowered Striker
By TTEUltraInstinct, 20-01-2020

At first, when I saw this card I was confused to get him or not because of the agility and balance mainly but as I looked at the price he was a must to do SBC. For that value, he is one of the best strikers you can currently get. In=game I play with 4-1-2-1-2 narrow and he fits perfectly in my attack having got Saurez POTM playing at CAM and partnering Crespo at striker. In-game he actually feels rapid and he when he is in the box you can guarantee that it's going to end up in the back of the net. Yes, it has been less than a day that the SBC came out but I can assure you that he is a must-do. In 20 games he has already managed to bag 39 goals. I personally gave him a hunter because I felt he needed the pace boost since his dribbling is decent and physical is overpowered.

  • Shooting(overpowered)
  • Pace(with hunter he is 93 pace)
  • Physical (tank)
  • Dribbling in the box
  • One-two plays
  • Finesse shots
  • Agility
  • Balance (barely noticeable)
  • 3* skill moves (doesn't affect him)

The Elephant Man No More
By OnTheLaw, 30-01-2020

DIEEEGOOOOO COSTAAA THE ELEPHANT MAN! Well, hes the elephant man no more. Where should I begin with this monster? Well, this is my first ever review, and so I am just going to write on each of his base stats and a short summary. Here they are:




PACE: Surprisingly good, I thought his pace would be like Suarez or Lewa, not too fast but not the slowest. But he has surprised me. When he starts making a run, you can play him in behind early and he will get there ahead of the defender. He was constantly beating even fullbacks to the ball, and outpaced players like Smalling or VVD even with an anchor chem style. But against faster defenders like Eder Militao or Diego Carlos, he simply used him pace and his strength in order to get in behind. Obviously its not the high end pace we have come to expect with this fifa with players like mbappe or auba, but it is adequate. 8/10



SHOOTING: Just look and it will be evident. 92 shooting. Doesn't need to be boosted. Like Lewa, its broken everywhere. He scores EVERYWHERE. He has scored form the narrowest angles I've ever scored from. You just have to aim his foot anywhere at the goal and let it fly. His 4* WF feels more like 5* as well. The only downside to his shooting is that his finesse shots aren't as broken as Suarez, but he will usually score them. Also the most clinical finisher I've ever used. 10/10



PASSING: Adequate on basic, very good with Catalyst. He can make those short passes and through balls, just not long balls or anything like that. 9/10



Dribbling: pretty bad, he turns like a truck, but what I do I play him in a 2 striker formation and so if he has his back to goal I just pass it off to my other striker and he runs in behind. But anyway, his composure is top-notch, but thats the only other thing that matter in this category for me. Only because of his reactions and composure he gets a 6/10



Defending: Surprisingly, he won almost every tackle he made and when he lost the ball he tackled it back so 8/10.




Physicality: 99 strength, 99 aggresion. Need I say more? 10/10





In the end, not a meta card, but if you were looking for fun, a card that wins games, bullys VVD, a clinical finisher, and a legend, this card is legendary. To end off, I quote a FUTBIN comment from this card: "RIP his wife"

The Beast Diego Costa
By sopafromdc, 21-01-2020

Now before I start, if you use this card you can't play how you would usually play with the meta cars, (drag back,quick turns, etc) Now that being said, if you play to his strengths, he will absolutely get you goals and lots of them. For me it was a no brainier when it came to completing this card. I've always been a fan of strong target men strikers and Diego Costa in his prime was one of the best. I played him in a 4-2-3-1 at ST. I have him on Stay Central, Target man, and the most important I think is Come back on defense. When you set him to come back on defense, he isn't in your box clearing the ball of the line, he's dropping back just enough to be able to receive the ball with his back to goal and holding it up to get everyone involved. He'll bag goals guaranteed at least 1 a game. More importantly he gets others involved, the play moves through him. Sure his passing stats seem generally low , but with 90 vision he works perfectly. Inside the box left foot right foot does not matter it's going in the back of the net. Yes his agility and balance are very low but if you play to his strengths you won't even feel that. He can perform roulettes, ball rolls, and step overs perfectly fine. He's so cheap that most of you will probably be able to do him for free. This card is a win - win.

Solid Forward for Most Applications
By PadThaiWCoconut, 21-01-2020

This guy is a complete beast when it comes to shooting an physical abilities. He has an explosive reaction and really good acceleration to outrun and surprise defenders if given the chance as most of the times they wont expect it. On engine, his passing is good enough for one touches and he can maneuver once he gets full control of the ball. Once inside the area, his shooting is extremely powerful, it actually feels a lot more powerful than other high power shooters I've had. Finesse shots were ok, nothing out of this world. He doesnt seem to jump much, Ive had a hard time trying to get him to do some headers even with his height.

His main issue is that he takes too long to respond once he gets the ball and you can attribute that to his low agility and balance. This is a major issue when you are attacking versus high speed defenders that will only give you a couple of seconds to react before the bump to you like a train. Sometimes, you can hold the ball but high speed defenders are quick to go around you and take the ball away. I've had many issues with him this way since every lost ball is a missed chance.

When you do a long pass and he has to chase down the wall, he will seem pretty quick and will fight off most defenders easily, just dont expect to dribble with him because he takes forever to do so (even with engine).

  • Powerful and accurate shooting
  • Impressive physical abilities
  • Explosive pace and reaction when running forward
  • Defenders will have a hard time pushing him off the ball if holding properly
  • Takes too long to react
  • Really low agility and balance
  • If using engine, he is not as fast. With hunter, he is pretty fast but as clunky as it gets.
  • If engine is not being used, his passing is poor

Clinical Finisher
By iTzPedroHDi, 21-01-2020

Played 4 games with him where he scored 10 goals my thought on the card its that i enjoyed the card but i do think his agility and balance are his biggest cons now i do believe i enjoy this card because of my style and instruction in game i play 4231(2) where he played ST with Instructions (Target Man) this means he played like a false nine but little bet more up the a original False nine this the reason i use Free Roam on my Cam here Diego and My cam make 1,2 passes that helps Diego score goals for me, so if you play like my style i think you will also enjoy this card, With 95 finishing, 93 shot power and 94 positioning and 97 serenity, For me there is no doubt that Costa is an incredible finisher. another good thing is the upgraded his skill moves to 3 stars but like i said if you have a slimier style to me possession football you will enjoy this card for me personal he will be my starter ST im benching Villa And Suarez POTM to Start Costa, now something i dint like is that his stamina does go down by the 75 to 80 min note that i do play Pressure on heavy touch but that not problem for me because i have Villa & Suarez On the Bench.

Diego Costa is a beast!!!
By fifafan696969, 24-01-2020

So my experience with Diego Costa was positive after all things considered. His finishing is magical, but I have one con with this card I would like to discuss more. If you have a good CAM you will enjoy this card but if you don't have a decent CAM you will think this card is trash quite frankly. What I mean by that is that this dude cant makeup chances himself but has to have someone to assist him, in my case I have griezmann so that wasn't a big problem but if you don't have a decent CAM this card is not worth it. Also, this card is absolutely good at getting the ball back with 99 strength and 99 aggression.

Is DIRTY DIEGO that good?
By DecksterKack64, 26-01-2020

What can i say about this card...

Well, he really has that 96 physical, he passes through defenders like an M1 Abrams or T-90, his short passing is also not bat for a striker. Dribbling feels usable for that big and lanky type of a card.

BUT the main thing that screws up the whole card is the LACK of finishing.Yes, you heard me right. You expect this guy to score everything at least within the box, but there is just something wrong with it. IDK if its me this bad , or its the card.He also has 70- Jumping,so heading is not that much of an option.He hits the post SO FCKN OFTEN, it's unimaginable. In my opinion the problem is the lack of any traits, which makes his incredible shooting stats worthless. I played him as a Single ST in 4231. He was usable as a guy that runs through CB's and passes or heads the ball to wingers or CAM's. He wasn't awful, but i was very dissapointed.Firstly i put him instead of 89 UCL moments Benzema, and honestly , he's way way better as a finisher, and as a striker option in general. Thoughts?
