89 - Player Moments SBC
2.5
Huge letdown
By tijndavid, 25-05-2020

Before Thauvin I had gold Dembele and winter refresh Cornet in his place, and let me tell you, he doesn't outperform either..


Pace:

I don't know what it is with this guy but everything he does just feels slow and clunky?

Whenever he's on the ball he can't outsprint anyone, not even gold ramos ffs.


Dribbling:

His first touch can be weird and kind of unpredictable but sometimes that works in his favor? idk lol


Shooting:

His shooting's actually pretty good but don't even try to do anything with his right foot tho lol.


Passing:

Not too bad, however sometimes he'll take a good 25 seconds to actually cross the ball after I press square so better off just cutting inside.


Physical:

It's weird but his clunkiness also gives him the feeling that he's a lot stronger than he actually is. Oftentimes he'll be challenging a wingback for possession and he'll do this weird stumbling thing that somehow straight bodies the defender and leaves him with the ball. kinda cool tbh


Defending:

Eh kinda irrelevant, he drops back a good amount.



Final verdict:

I use either Promes or Kent on the other wing and every single game they'll outshine Thauvin, even though Tauvin cost me literally 10x as much... Yikes.

Definitely wasn't worth the 200k, but oh well, at least he links with my player moments Lala (who also feels kinda slow for some reason?).


Peace out

  • Feels stronger than he actually is
  • pretty decent shooting and curve on his left foot
  • he's french so will 100% fit in your team


  • Feels like he will never outpace a defender
  • Feels clunky
  • 3* WF (duh)
  • def wasn't worth 200k :/

Beast

This guy is a beast! Played with him for 15 games now after I did his SBC in order to improve from Ousmane Dembele. Although he has a 3* weak foot; he is amazing as a RM (442 ingame) as he can cut inside and finesse on his left(strong) foot (as he has the finesse shot trait). His near-perfect acceleration stats allow him to be played on an engine which massively improves his dribbling and passing stats as well as maxing out...

Florian Thauvin

I have a lot of untradeable Ligue 1 players, but I lacked a good right winger, Kalu isn't bad, but he's probably not good enough to start. This looked like a good and fairly cheap option. 86 rated squad with an IF isn't terrible, but i'd rather something like a double 84 rated squad with packs back. Because of the icon sbc, it was also more expensive then it'd normally be. For chemistry, I played a 4-3-3 with the following ...

Strong Player

At the beginning I would like to point out that I made this player for 15k because I had many cards in the club. Florian is a very agile player which allows him to perfectly fulfill the role of a wing.He has very good shots which is confirmed by his statistics. If you have cards in the club and you know how to combine it, do it quickly before time r...
