Player Review

90 - TOTS
4.0
Nkunku, the new FRED
By ROLLITOOO13, 20-05-2020

Hey everyone.

One month ago I completed half of the Bundesliga challenges to make profit because it's the only league sbc with a lot of interesting packs (I got TOTS Robertson from Mainz sbc)

Then i realized that EA were adding a new league sbc player for each league TOTS so I completed the others teams and I was waiting for it.

Thanks to this disgraceful Paderborn challenge (hopefully they get relegated to avoid that in Fifa 21), I paid almost 100k without Robertson's profit.

I play him in a 41212(2) as a left CM next to Sabitzer and Witsel, I made a review about witsel (the first one) so check it if you want !

Now let's talk about nkunku :


He reminds me of FRED

Chemistry style : sentinel

4*SM : Good but not obligatory for a cm

3*WF : unfortunately it's one of the bad points of the card...I think that a cm needs at least 4 WF

Price : around 200k with the reward packs, it's ok

work rates : unfortunately with these workmates it's harder to play him CAM so that's a real con... HIGH/HIGH would be better

Pace : really good

shooting : didn't really try it because he is too defensive so he didn't have many opportunities, but he scored 3 so he's good

passing : nice passing, nothing to complain about

dribbling : nice, he's tall and agile with a good balance and 4* SM, perfect for a CM

defending & physical : good with sentinel, ok stamina

PADERBORN

No real face, he looks like cuadrado in game

Deserves a better rating, he had a huge season with RBL

Amazing Positioning

Used him as a RAM on 4-2-3-1, he was amazing. He always was there when I needed someone in the box. I had him on balanced instructions, he came back a lot but his stamina was great.

NOT THE BEST, NOT THE WORST

Like person who loves doing league sbc's, before the release of Bundesliga TOTS, i've done 19/20 sbc's and bought the Paderborn players before they go up, i just wanted the releasing of the new bundesliga league sbc player and Nkunku arrived. I've done Sabitzer and thought that they would be great as CDM's in 4231 and so far he is doing great in wl, but i hate some things in him.

Nkunku

I completed the Nkunku SBC, and only lost a small amount of coins by doing it. I packed TOTSSF Taarabt from the Bayern Munich SBC (which allowed me to not lose much money) I was expecting him to be a much more attacking player, however with a backbone, anchor or guardian chem style he is very good. He surprised me ny how good at defending he is. I'd 100% reccomend him if he fits your team. Plus has perfect links to Sabitze...
