Absolute G.O.A.T in Fifa 20

By lehungpcg, 09-12-2019

Here i go again in fifa 20, this year im very happy that i can finally get this guy after so many rumor of his perfection dribbling.

First, i sold my squad https://www.futbin.com/20/squad/11648206 to buy this guy and this is the formation i switch to play him ingame https://www.futbin.com/20/squad/11648275.

I have played him in fifa 19 but then sold him to get back to cr7 because in fifa 19 heading is still very OP.

But since heading in fifa 20 is dead and the meta is more about dribbling and skills, i have sold all my decent players to get this GOAT.

I was considering about Neymar and him because i could save 400k if i get Neymar instead but since Mbappe requires a lots more coin and League 1 doesn't have many good players to link up so i give Messi a try. I take the risk with high chance of selling him to get Neymar if i feel he doesn't give what i hope for.

But the GOAT is so satisfied to control.

Dribbling
The best in game, Im not a good dribbler but with him i still able to get pass 2-3 defenders to score. You just need to learn how to use L1, this new trick from EA is so OP and L1 + Messi is chaos in defender line. Try to hold L1 get Messi in one way to fool opponent and release L1 and go the other way or anyway you see is possible He will get there.
Fifa 20 is on the way to because the most realistic football game of all time. If you watch football daily then you will see it very clearly therefore Messi in fifa 20 is almost like what he is in real life.
Use him in several matches you will know how to use him.

2. Shooting.

a. Use his left foot to finesse shot out side the box = Goal. You dont need to time finish, just get the right amout of power.

b. Use his right foot to near post = Goal.

c. With Messi you will focus on the dribbling, don't try to get to his left even its better, opponent will predict that. He can score will both feet so try to trick opponent. Remember L1 one way, exit the other.

3. Passing.

a. He can pass perfectly, you will feel very confident with him holding the ball.

b. First when i got him, i was so excited that i dribbler too much and forget to pass, after losing goals i get to the way football played, pass. When opponent is focusing on messi dribbling then its the chance to have some though ball to your ST.

Stamina.

The only downside of this card is stamina he still can play 90 minutes but after 70 minutes don't try to out run defenders, pass and run to the right position is the best way to play him in 20 last minutes.
strength is not his weakness, when he has the ball is very difficult to get it from him even with van dijk.
Heading ... oh forget .

Why Messi could be the pinnacle of FIFA 20

Messi feels like the most complete Attacker in the game. Unbelievable Ball control, pace, passing, and shooting. He slots in perfectly to the META of this current FIFA. In previous versions his size and physical stats inhibited him, but not this time around. Its very hard to lose the ball with him and when playing a possession style of play he dominates. Seems like a no brainer to say if you have the chance, buy this card!

Best Card in FUT20!

So I was lucky enough to pack an untradeable TOTY Alisson and a tradeable TOTY Messi Last Thursday.As I wanted to try Politano and Malcuit on the right side first, I needed to change the team a bit. I didn't want to cut IF Varane so playing Mendy on 7 chem was necessary.Playing an ingame 4-2-3-1 with Messi on CAM, this card is simply INSANE!30 games of Weekend League Mode with asto...

The little magician

On Wednesday night look fell my way. Expecting Ocampus I skipped the walkout bit but saw a flash of the Barca badge and went mental, just like my opponents for Messi's first 11 games. I played him Cam in 4231 in game and he was by miles the best player I have ever used. His finesse shots are just another level along with his finishing and free kicks. His passing is just incredible - never intercepted. Dribbling is ju...
