Player Review
87 - FUT Birthday
I'm writing this review because I was very pleased with my purchase of fut birthday Thomas Lemar. Before I get into how he played, I'd like to mention I'm a division 4/5 player and average gold 2 in the weekend league (I'm not the greatest player). Anyways, he is actually pretty amazing. Excluding pires and mbappe, he is definitely the best french LM/LW/LF in game. 4* skills and 5* weak foot is obviously great and he is very well rounded. I play him in 433 and switch him to the right side in-game. As an RW he is absolutely amazing. All he has to do is cut inside towards the left, and finesse it in. Almost all his finesse shots go in. He fits the meta quite perfectly and is a budget option for those that can't afford mbappe. I'm not the greatest skiller but from the skills I do know how to perform, he performs them perfectly. The only downside to him personally is that he's quite weak. His stamina is also not the greatest, 85, however, if you keep him at stay forward like I do his stamina doesn't drain fast at all and can easily play the full 90 minutes. I use a hunter on him and would highly recommend it on him. His workrates do not affect the gameplay that much and personally may bolster his defensive stats in the attack.
- finesse shot trait
- 5* weak foot
- 4* skills
- Amazing links
- Really good dribbling
- Low centre of gravity (fits meta very well)
- Actually pretty good freekicks (tried once, scored once)
- strength, however, his speed and dribbling makes up for it
- his finishing is not the greatest, however, he has the finesse shot trait meaning he will score practically every finesse inside and outside the box
- medium/medium work rates (personally he has not underperformed because of this)
