Player Review

After he didn't get his Futmas card I was waiting for him to get an inform as some sort of recompense and he actually got one!

So firstly I will say, I like this card a lot and he's still in my squad because I don't have anybody better yet. But there are some negatives to the card and they're fairly noticeable.

Pace

Fine, I use a HAWK chem so he's got 91 pace but he still feels a bit slow at times which is a pretty noticeable negative. It's worse because I play him next to POTM Werner who has ridiculous Pace so it's much more noticeable that he isn't as quick. But it's enough to tear away from any 70-75 pace Centre back. Anything more you'll likely be caught.

Shooting

Probably the second best thing about him, so with Hawk it gives him 99 positioning, 92 finishing and 90 shot power. He puts 8 out of 10 chances away no problem, sometimes finishing things Werner can't which is unreal. But then sometimes he'll get through one on one and hit it straight down the keepers throat or finesse it round the keeper and wide. It's frustrating but even more so when you know the card is fully capable of slapping shots past Ter Stegen or Oblak without issue, completely depends on how he feels on the day.

Passing

So for me this was the stat that surprised me the most. I use Jesus as more of a support Striker than a goalscorer because of his HIGH HIGH Work rates and the instructions I play (Werner stay Forward, Jesus come back on defence) and he's actually insanely good in terms of playing a support striker, his vision is fine at 80 combined with 79 short passing, he plays Werner or anybody through without issue with 37 assists in 42 games to prove it. If you're after a support striker he's up there as one of my favourites on FIFA 20.

Dribbling

Far and away his best stat. The 92 agility and 92 balance combined with 88 dribbling is just ridiculous. If you strafe dribble you can take the absolute p*** with this card because he stops the ball and can drag back into a better position to knock the ball on in what feels like a split second. Works well in tight spaces because of this as well and him being small is a big help. If you combine that with his high aggression it makes it even better.

Defending

He's a striker so you don't really defend with him but the 85 aggression with HAWK here is great because he'll chase men down and struggle the ball off them if you lose possession in the final 3rd. That said, definitely wouldn't play him in midfield because he's not strong enough. HIGH HIGH Work rates means he drops back really quickly but you can sometimes find him in no mans land and it can be a problem, doesn't happen often though.

Physical

Okay stat, the 90 jumping helps with the ball sometimes but his height is a problem so if it's a tall defender you're jumping against you've got no chance. Aggression is the best stat but the strength is a massive problem, he gets pushed off the ball more often than not, you just have to hope you break away with pace before they get chance to do that which more often than not is what happens. 85 Stamina is great - Never tired. I do sub him off sometimes but it's not very often, tends to be if he's not doing much for me.

Overall he's a good card, my main positive with the card is that he's about 50-55k. Whilst that doesn't seem like a lot, you can get players that aren't anywhere near as good as this card in terms of ability but they cost 20-30k more. If you've got 50k spare and you need a striker get one because he'll get you goals or at very least contribute if you're after a supporting role.

A big negative for some people will be his work rates, HIGH HIGH and I wont lie - it is a problem, but if you play him to get forward you'll notice it far more than if you play him to come back on defence, in that sense, he's perfect.
