87 - Flashback SBC

Phenomenal Player for Value

By OnyxTekkerz, 28-01-2020

Mathieu Valbuena in my opinion is a great value card for only 44k. I feel as he's very overlooked due to his 3* skills and 3* weak foot. As a CAM he has great pace, passing and dribbling stats and for 44k in my opinion he is absolutely worth it. His shooting is not the best as he has low finishing and shot power but he does have good long shots. A deadeye chemistry style in my opinion is the way to go as it nearly maxes out his finishing and increases his shot power. I used him in a 4-2-3-1 as a right attacking mid and he is a great dribbler and very rapid. Yes the 3* 3* isn't preferable but he does have some good traits such as the finesse shot and the outside the foot shot which is why I played him at RAM so he can easily shoot across goal. He is in a poor league for links but has a great nation so I would go and do him as he is one of the cheapest flashback cards you'll get.

Is Valbuena 87 worth it?

Mathieu Valbuena's 87 card is a solid french midfield card. Yet he doesn't offer too much in terms of presence when playing as a CAM I have found. I have played 8 games with him - 4 as a CAM and 4 as a RM. I have played him in a 4-2-3-1 formation with him as the central CAM, however his small stature and his low composure mean that he is quick to loose possession if any pressure is applied to him. That being said however, I...

Surprisingly Good!

I've seen a lot of hate on this card, probably because people were expecting Lautaro headliner, or he has 3*/ 3*, but damn he is actually pretty good. If you're looking for a quick CAM who doesn't need to shoot every 10 seconds, go for him.
