Player Review
90 - Icon
What a player. I started by playing him as CDM, thinking he would be like IRL, just standing on the halfway line and distributing passes left and right. But no defensive chem style could save his defensive abilities, so I moved him up to CAM. What a magnificent CAM he is. It's like he's programmed to being unable to misplace a pass. Every single one reaches its goal, and often its precise as well. I slapped a finisher on him to boost his long shots and shot power, and with that curve he finishes finesses almost every time. With 92 positioning he is also always there in the box to finish a move that he initially set up. If you don't need the pace in players this is the best CAM in the game for me so far, better than my previous IF KDB or Politano. He also dribbles like a god and can turn around with ease, the balance is no problem. For 400k this is a steal, unless you need pace, he will do the job but won't outpace many defenders, just let him be the one to do the passes instead of recieving them.
- PASSING. If you do 100 through balls with him, 101 would set your attacker up alone with the GK.
- Shooting, with finisher he can score finesse shots almost every time, or at least get you a corner.
- Dribbling, runs around like a liquid.
- 5* 4*, feels like 5*5*, can hit the corner flag with a pass from the kick off spot with his left foot.
- THE HAIR. This is Pirlo, one of the smoothest players to play the game, and the feeling to see his beautiful hair on the pitch, gliding past defenders and making god like passes is amazing.
- Defense, can't play CDM.
- Strenght, gets bullied easy, but can turn away from a challenge before they get the ball thanks to his dribbling skills.
- Stamina, can last 90 minutes with 99 stamina from the beginning, but will tire. Have him stay forward to prevent this.
