Nainggolan is Back!!!
By A1dyh, 19-12-2019

I'd been looking at this card for the past couple of weeks, weighing up if I should buy him or not. I've bought Nainggolan countless times over the years, but the past couple of seasons he's seemed a bit off which made me hesitant. I was also running with a Bundesliga team with lots of untradeable players which was performing really well for me. Buying Nainggolan would mean I'd have to totally switch up my line up. Then one night I got drunk and just went for it. I haven't made many good choices whilst drunk, but buying Nainggolan was definitely a wise move. He's revolutionized my game. He seems to intercept everything, he's strong enough to knock players off the ball, has good enough passing to set you on your way and has a rocket of a right foot going forward. He plays as CDM in a diamond, but sometimes it feels like there's two CDM's with him on the pitch. His stamina levels are crazy and he just keeps going. I had some reservations about his pace, but I put a shadow on him and he zips around like he's on speed and never tires. If you can fit him in your team I highly recommend him

Defending : Stops everything, intercepts everything. He's as good as Kante or Essien

Shooting: Get him on the edge of the box and watch those rockets find the top corner

Stamina: Never stops running

Strength: He's like a tank

Passing: Suprisingly good despite only being 82. His short passing always seems to find a team mate

Skills : Sometimes I wish he was at least 4 star so I didn't have to rely on his brute strength to get past players

Weak foot : Not too bad, but under pressure his left foot can let him down sometimes

Pace : Put a shadow chem style negates that

Other Radja Nainggolan Reviews

Best CM I've tried this year

This is my first review, but I thought I must do it to express my respect to Radja, about what he has done in real life, and to be honest the feelings you get in-game by using this player is just phenomenal. I've been using him since 2017, and even this year, with reduced speed, I still consider him to be one of the best CM in game. I've tried all versions of him throughout the year, and I enjoyed all of them. I like short ...

An absolute beast RADja nainggolan

best cdm/cm in the game! I have had nainggolan since day one starting with his 83 to his 86 before buying his headliners as an 87 and now an 88. I’ve partnered him up with the likes of prime essien, scream sabitizer, headliners Delaney and he’s better than everyone else. He just dominates the whole midfield winning every ball and can carry and distribute it well as well to start attacks. He is also alw...

Nainggolan Review

Bought this inform as I needed an RM that can play as a dm (in-game formation changes). Nainggolan played alongside Icon 85 Guardiola and I can say he shines brighter than my Guardiola, Nainggolan is always intercepting in key moments and has decent pace to run the ball up the field to my attacking mids. His defence capabilities are just as good as Guardiola and he feels more ...
