87 - Winter Refresh
3.5
The Unfulfilled prophecy
By ahmedhantoush, 17-02-2020

Hello everyone today I will be reviewing Areola. I have used a couple of GKs in the past including Oblak, Ederson and Ter Stegen. For me purchasing areola was more for chemistry reason oblak has been phenomenal for me all along however, I felt that there was something missing no outstanding saves I felt that he lacked Oblak's courage he was worst than Ederson! He also tends to punch balls more and is very clumsy. Funny enough I packed Ter stegen in an objective pack and i have used him in 5 games so far and the difference is striking he just feels rapid and brave often making outstanding saves. All in all if you need a goalkeeper please do not areola there are a million other better cheaper more viable options.

But I felt this was my responsibility to let my fellow FIFA-players know how much of a fraud this guy is. So I opened a guaranteed Winter Upgrade pack because I hate myself and I got this Make-A-Wish keeper. He is absolutely shocking. I know there's a lot of you who also got him from the pack. If you ar...

Bang for the bucks

Extremely good for his price, just as in FIFA 19. Will make incredible saves. I have Ter Stegen as an investment but use Areola instead for his superiority.

100 game review

After 100 games of rivals with Areola I can honestly say he is a bit of a disappointment. For 10 games in a row he single handedly wins you a game by stopping absolutely everything. Other games he may as well be out for tea because the goal is basically open. He will make absolutely amazing saves and it makes you think "wow, this guy may actually stay in the team for a month or two" and then in the next game he lets a 40 ya...
