91 - Flashback SBC

4.5

Absolute BEAST!

By sotos112, 24-03-2020

So, I was looking for someone to perfect link with my RTTF Goretzka (who I've got untradeable). After having waited a week for an SBC or a Promo to come out so that I could get a German CB, at the 11th of March, this absolute tank called Jerome Boateng came out. At first glance, I thought he was quite expensive. But then, I decided to use some of my high rated-cards, which helped me complete the SBC at a much lower cost. After completing him, I linked him in my team with Goretzka (RTTF) and Ter Stegen (TOTGS). I've played more than 60 games with this card. With an ''Anchor'' chemistry style and of course at 10 chem, Jerome Boateng is undoubtedly one of the best CB's I've used this year. Let's have a look at his stats, steb-by-step:

-Pace [83]: With 80 Acceleration and 84 Sprint Speed, Boateng is the current second fastest German CB in FIFA20! In-Game he's quick, and rarely outpaced by anyone.

-Shooting [56]: As long as he's a defender, his Shooting isn't really a thing to be worried about. His Finishing and Positioning are way low. On the other hand, he can finish off chances thanks to his great Shot Power.

-Passing [82]: Jerome's passes are fantastic! With 85 Vision, 85 Short Passing and 94 Long Passing, he's both a tank and a defensive maestro. As a guy who uses to lob through ball to my wingers a lot (Gelso Martins 86)(Saint-Maximin 84), Boateng's the man for that job.

-Dribbling [85]: His dribbling is super high. His Aglity and Balance are a bit low for a CB (both below 70), but he has 83 Pace so it ain't really a problem. His Ball Control and Dribbling though are decent. The best things about his Dribbling though are his 99 Reactions and 99 Composoure, that are very important for a Center-Back. Overall, he's decent with the ball, and a monster without it.

-Defending [91]: Boateng is unbelievable at defence. Simply unstoppable! His Interceptions are decent (86), his Heading Accuracy (92) is just too good! He barely misses any header. His Defensive Awarness is very nice too (89). Well, we ain't done yet.. Jerome Boateng has 94 Standing Tackle and 93 Sliding Tackle! And with an 'Anchor' chem style.. oh boy, he's a Monster.

-Physical [92]: So, Boateng is the most powerful German player on the game. Mad stat! He has got 81 Jumping which is decent but could be higher, 74 Stamina which isn't the greatest, but as a CB he's obviously able to make till the end of the gamee, and probably even till the end of the extra-time. Moreover, he has got 99 Strength! Wow! And with 90 Aggression, he's an absolute Tank!

-Work Rates [Def: Medium][Att: Medium]: They're okay, a 'High' Defensive work rate would be a lot better.

-Skill Moves [2*]: For a CB, Skill Moves are irrelevant. But a 3* would be much more suitable. 2* aren't a problem though so it's okay.

-Weak Foot [4*]: Very important for a defender. He's got 4 star Weak Foot which is awesome.

-Height, Weight [192cm][90kg]: He's tall enough and strong enough, and his height and his weight are great.

Jerome Boateng in a 3-side defense

Good morning lads,this is my first ever review, so I want to make it short but give you some good information.I played this WL with 3 defenders, ingame in a 3-4-1-2 formation. My wingers (butragueno and bernardo silva) come back in defense so they help me out to a 5-side defense.Boateng plays next to Akanji and Zakaria and he was an absolute rock in defense. I finished G...

This is a beast

Guys when I saw this card I had the remembers of Fifa 14 and Fifa 15 when this card was one of the best CBs in the game, now I can say the same thing with the flashback. He is everywhere. He is fast, big, precise with the passages, always in position and he always wins the head contrasts. By seeing the stats he seems clunky but believe me he is not a tree with the movements. The 94 long passes is a bonus for him in fact I m...
