Review: First big card up for a review since I sold my old account. After Lautaro I dabbled with a couple of teams, but I wasn’t too sure what it was going to look like. I have a much better picture now and on top of the list is Neymar 93 IF. He will be in my team till something crazier comes along or till I made enough money to get another “godsquad”. I chose the Finisher chem style because I wanted the maximum shooting possible as he’d be playing striker.
I used his NIF before and he was already great, but this is something else. He feels much faster, his shooting is immaculate and he glides even smoother past defenders. (It might just be the fact that before, he was one of 11 stars and now he is THE star).
I’ve noticed pretty early this fifa that I prefer my strikers to be able to pass. And boy, let me tell you, this guy can pass. You can see that in the crazy amount of assists he has. My CAM hardly ever gets a ratio of 1 assists per game, let alone my striker! Also worth noting are his goals scored. 1:1 ratio is more than I can ask for. His 5* WF helps ofcourse with both passing and shooting
So that’s shooting and passing covered. Lets move on to his pace and dribbling. I am not a complete pace whore so his base pace of 92 is more than enough for me to get away from defenders. Combine this with his amazing dribbling and 5* skills and you shouldn’t worry about defenders getting anywhere near you. The only card that dribbled better than this (imo) was last years OP Cruyff. I can’t get enough of his scoop turns, his turns, his cuts and his twists. He just wriggles through the tightest spaces where you wouldn’t normally dream of going through.

However when you do get too close to a defender, or make a wrong move or a wrong turn. You will get pushed off the ball. Don’t even hope to recover it either. He is like a chihuahua trying to attack a rottweiler. He doesn’t stand a chance. He is not as weak as Insigne or Mertens, but it’s close.
Rating: 9.9/10, this card is made for me. He combines everything I want from a striker. I must admit that while I was thinking about this rating that I would give his NIF a 9.5 ATLEAST. So you must ask yourself: Is he worth the extra coins? For me yes, he is better, but also he allows me to use him for Atal’s chemistry (who is just insanely good).
Value for coins: I don’t think you will many better cards for this price. In his price range you find Maradonna 91 and Dalglish 90 and I can’t imagine they would be better (haven’t tried them). I also managed to snipe him for 1.432m so I’m completely happy with his price.
