Player Review

90 - FUTmas SBC
2.5
Frustrating
By Arsenality93, 19-03-2020

I am a average to good player, Gold 1 to Elite 3 online most weekends and occasionally dabble in Squad battles, I did the SBC straight away at the time as I needed an upgrade on my current PL keeper and thought why not the best version of one of the best keeper's on the game right? Well in someways right and in someways wrong, which I will detail for you dear reader below.

His shot stopping is everything you would expect from a keeper with 92 Diving and 93 Reflexes, he saves shots you would expect to be a goal and overall performs to a high standard in this category. He will claim and catch crosses without issue as long as he is in no way impeded by opposition players, and his kicking is fine, just fine, what you would expect from an 82 rating, but not on the Alisson or Ederson level etc. The truth about old Dave is that he will save you a lot of goals, but as you'll see below, he'll also cost you plenty of goals.

The truth of the Cons section is that De Gea would make an excellent boxer.Punch, punch, punch , PUNCH, PUNCH, PUNCH. He punches, everything. Any corner, any cross, high or low, no matter how composed he looks or how much time he has, under any pressure from any opposition player of any height, he is not catching that ball, he is sending it either out into the D or doing that godawful punch where the keeper just sends it a bit further backwards in the box, which will often find an oppostion player, who will find an empty net. I tried him initially on the basic chem style for the overall bonus it provides, then the glove chem style for increased handling, but it made no difference, this is a keeper programmed to punch and not catch sadly. So much so that i intend to do the Prime Icon pack SBC in hope of getting a player that will improve my team, but will not bat an eyelid if i get even the less desireable keepers, Lehmann Schmeichel etc. so i can have something different from De Gea. He is a risk sadly overall, a keeper who is 4-5 stars with shots coming at him, but a liability who will cost you goals as soon as a cross is coming towards him.

Amazing Goalkeeper

let me guess, you are here because you packed a duplicate TOTSSF untradeable like i did and you needed an SBC to put him into. You came to the right place, this man is a freak. I had been using Ter Stegen for a long time and sold him when i packed TOTSSF Courtois, and man that was a mistake. Courtois was an absolute garbage keeper and he made me want to cry, and to make matters worse i packed him in my guaranteed TOTSSF pac...

Great keeper(David De gea)

Played 250 games now for me and he has aved me so many times just as he has saved his team. Honestly nothing wrong with him he his great for me and I did this sbc right way. I would say the only thing wrong which wont matter too much is that he can only play good with 10 chem or he isnt tha great under 10 chem. But I guess thats the same for everyone. He did actually get a few goals and assists for me
