CM Review

By nyclezz, 31-10-2019

I will review him as a CM, not as a RM so be aware. I play him alongside Wijnaldum and initially thought I would get rid of him pretty quickly. But after one Weekend League I noticed that he is much better than his price (for an icon) suggests. His best asset is definitely the pace. You don't get 86 pace on a CM that easily. For example, I had the thought of saving coins by swapping him with Guardiola, but the 10 pace gap is too big. His dribbling is pretty decent and he can move quickly. His defending says 70 but I don't feel a difference to Wijnaldum (79 DEF). His passing felt alright, and his finishing is ok if you play him as a CM. Longshots are non-existent tho. Overall I really urge you to try him out!

So I was playing a starting formation of 4-3-3, and I needed a right winger to play CM (I presume that everyone knows you can swap player positions with custom tactics). When I saw an Icon at just above 200 k (PS4) with amazing pace, great dribbling, fine passing, mediocre defending and atrocious shooting, I knew I had to give him a try.Also, he has the finesse trait. And if you combine that with his 64 sh...
