Give gim a Try
By PhilakaPhil, 03-05-2020

Boy, where do is start. I bought this guy about 2 weeks after he came out and he immediately was the best player on my squad. Since i dont play that much Fifa anymore, i have probably made approx. 60 games with him and haven't finished a weekend league at that time (so rivals div. 3, normally Gold 2/1). But he is sooo good it is a joke.

He looks like he is 190cm and plays like that, barely loses headers and his challenge range is ridiculous. Add in 95 Pace, 91 Strength, 99 Stamina and m/h work rates and u already know you've got a beast at CDM.

In my squad he played the more defensive part in a 4-2-3-1 Formation with offensive fullbacks and Mckennie playing the more offensive role. And i would argue, that besides TOTY Kante there wasn't a better player to do that job than Mbabu. He chases down counter attacks with ease, wins every challenge (99 Standing tackle and 95 Sliding tackle with Powerhouse) and is just literally everwhere, while also beeing able to handle shifty attackers, due to his good (not great) agility and balance stats.

With the Powerhouse chem style he has great passing stats to and can play every pass to open the game or initiate a counter attack after getting the ball.

This guy is just a phenomal player and every friend i had over was totally stunned by how good this guy is, give him a shot for a few games, and i promise, you won't go back.


Ps: his speed allows him to make some surprise runs through midfield and iniate attacks, even though thats not, what he is best at :p

  • Great speed
  • Great Defending
  • Great Price
  • Good Passing
  • Good Dribbling
  • Can't shoot to save his life :D

Best RB in the game, no arguing

The topic says it all: this man is the best RB in the game (sorry TAA fan boys) - so, should you do him? Yes, since hes for free you should definitely do him! Of course hes not that easy to fit into your squad if youre not a bundesliga team owner, but there are still a lot of options to fit him into a hybrid squad (Upamecano, Boateng,etc.)

Mbabuuuuu

YESSS, as soon as I saw this card, I knew I NEEDED to grind for it, so after some hours, *boom* got him. Starting off this review I have to say his normal card was insane but the passing was slightly off, but now that that's fixed a bit I knew he would be a beast and the fact that wolfsburg has a good chance to get into the knockout stages got me even more hyped! his already good physical has gotten crazy, as now he is very...

Mbabu is a Baaaaad Man

Everyone knows how important CDMs are especially in Fifa, but I'm not one who usually spends a crazy amount on players, (1 mil coin squad) and I usually try to save the bulk of that for my attackers and wingers. Yet, this man is the exception. I was making a new squad a few days ago and stumbled across this card looking for players I wanted to build my squad around, when I saw 95 PACE for a CDM, I knew this was someone I ha...
