90 - Ligue 1 POTM

5.0

Surprisingly Good

By KaylaSmith, 20-11-2019

Used the base version during draft and was impressed (I only conceded 3 goals throughout) so I thought I'd give the POTM a chance:

The pace was good enough to work with when coupled with his positioning and tackling, his defensive performances were consistently 10's which in this current game is a rarity of itself. He was always putting in strong tackles and most of the time won me the ball back which again is rare with the current defending mechanics.

As much as I could praise his defensive attributes, his heading capabilities also contributed to a couple of goals from corners adding the cherry on top of an otherwise outstanding card and one that tempts me to build a Brazil themed team in order to continue using him with a more competitive team in future WL's. Would deffo recommend if you are unsure about him.

POTM Thiago Silva

Old school defending. I've just finished my first weekend league with Silva at the back, partnered with Scream Romagnoli and can say that he's an excellent defender. High value for money, he always seems to be in the right place to intercept or make a tackle at the right time. (He makes a very high percentage of tackles) Obviously he's not the quickest or the strongest but in terms of pure defending, he's top class.H...

Thiago Silva

So composed

I played with pacy CB's for a while, trying yo fit the meta. however players like diallo, Joe Gomez and Hermoso all had the same problem, when getting close to the attackers, they would just stand there. Even when I pressed the tackle button, they would rarely get ball. This guy is different! he is not the fastest (even with shadow) but he more than makes up for it, by always marking cl...

Thiago Silva

Old memories and old beast.

Hi guys, QJ here. Thiago Silva, a name in my childhood. When he came out, I said to myself, fk meta, why not give him a try? And the result is quite good.He is solid as a rock with a shadow chemistry style, all pace stats goes to 90+, so he will not feel slow? also all the defending stats are pure class, he is quite strong with 6'0'', he is not as strong as VVD kind of defender, but he does have some beautiful interc...
