Player Review

I have only played 13 games with him (in WL) but I feel like it was enough to give a review.

I've seen a lot of people complain about this SBC , saying it's not worth it, and that nobody asked for this card. I asked for this card ! I absolutely loved watching this guy play for Marseille and for France, I am glad they gave him a nice card at honestly a very reasonable price I'd go as far to say that 45K for a card like him is a bargain.

Cost : Roughly 45 to 50K.

Position : RAM in 4231

Pace : 89 - Key stats : 89 Acceleration , 89 Sprint Speed

He is pretty quick but not as quick as I thought he would be, despite having both 89 in Acceleration and Sprint Speed, he felt quicker on short distance (Acceleration) and not as quick once fully "launched" (Sprint Speed) but if you use him in the middle he will rapid, on the wing he is quick but not the quickest. 8/10

Shooting : 83 - Key stats : 84 Positioning, 81 Finishing, 87 Longshots

What surprised me the most for sure. He is actually a solid finisher inside the box, has a good longshot on him but his positioning is what really surprised me, he made good runs and always try to get in good positions, his finishing inside the box is great but he can be prone to miss, especially finesse shots. 7/10

Passing : 91 - Key stats : 87 Vision, 93 Shot Passing, 93 Curve, 87 Long Passing, 91 Crossing

One of his best stats, he is an incredible passer on his right foot, his left isn't bad aswell but I mostly used his right foot. His shot passing is perfect and his longballs are very good too, I haven't crossed much with him but the few times I did (ground cross) he found his target. Definitely one of his best attributes. 9/10

Dribbling : 92 - Key stats : 92 Agility , 99 Balance, 92 Dribbling, 92 Ball Controll

His best stats. He absolutely glides on the ball, the ball stick to his feet and his agility/balance combo makes him so hard to tackle without making a foul. And despite being only 3* using Ball roll and , fake shots and heel to heel was enough to dribble past defenders, especially fullbacks. 10/10

Physicals : 68 - Key stats : 93 Stamina, 85 Jumping

Not much to say here, He has great stamina and is able to play full 90, even Extra-time, his jumping didn't come in to use much and when it did, he didn't win any headers. He is very weak and can get pushed off the ball if you sprint (if you're keeping the ball close it's much harder to bully him off without making a foul) 4.5/10 (mostly for his stamina)

Overall Thoughts : 7.6/10 I'll say this, for the price, he is worth doing if you are gonna use him Personally that card has a bit of sentimental value hence the reason I did it, he ended up really surprising me and did a good job in a team surrounded by much better player. He could make a good impact sub.

He honestly felt a lot like Lorenzo Insigne without the 4/4 , short, quick, good passing and dribbling, he felt almost exactly like an Insigne who can shoot and run full 90 His dribbling felt the same, his passing felt better too.

I still fill like Valbuena is better suited out wide, at this point in the game most CAM's have better finishing than him, he'll also won't be bullied as much on the wing and his passing, dribbling and pace makes him a good choice to have out wide especially if you use a formation like the 4231 or 4222

I did him to try him out for a bit but I might honestly just keep him a little longer, he was good enough and I don't feel the need to drop him, he'll play in the next WL , it was fun using him so I'm gonna keep having fun with him
