Player Review

91 - TOTS
5.0
Best striker I have used in Fifa 20
By arunc4u, 02-06-2020

I have never written reviews for any player before, but after playing with TOTS Teixeira for 14 games I decided I need to write a review to let the community know how he plays in game.


I played him as the right striker along side TOTS Johnathan with TOTS Reus (untradeable) as CAM in 4312. In game, TOTS Kimmich (untradeable) and 89 Gerrard (untradeable) play left and right CM's respectively with 85 Gattuso as middle CM. This attack and midfield is backed by TOTS Reguilion, TOTS Pique, 87 Cannavaro and 91 Hakimi in defense and TOTS MATS in goal. Only players I am not convinced about are 85 Gattuso and TOTS MATS (for some reason, his gold card felt more consistent than his TOTS and this card lets in long shots every other game).


I did not expect much from the CSL striker duo but bought them to try out because I did not pack any elite Ligue 1 players after spending more than 14000 points and 1.2 million coins on promo packs.


Coming to Teixeira, he scored 18 and assisted 11 in 14 Rivals games and to my surprise, he is the best striker I have used in Fifa 20 (cannot wait to play him this WL). I have used some good ST/CF like Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, Griezmann, 87 Ben Yedder, 95 Reus, 91 Drogba, 92 Raul etc. but this guy is by far my favorite and most fun card to play with. I have not used the elites like R9 (used on loan), Eusebio, Kruyff etc. so cannot comment on how he compares to those.


His partner in crime Johnathan was good but somehow lacked the finish and composure Teixerira has. However, Johnathan's passing was much better than his card stats which made it possible for him to make pin point passes to Teixeira for him to finish.


Last but not the least, I am not sure if he will remain like this till end of the game. After every patch, I feel players play differently where some play worse and some become more op.

  • One of the most agile players I have used (like Mertens/Insigne, but with better composure, finishing,strength and aggression)
  • Silky smooth dribbling with perfect ball control.
  • Pace
  • Clinical Finishing
  • 4* skills
  • 4* weak foot which feels like 5*. I believe I scored more with his left foot than right.
  • Stamina
  • Consistent
  • Maybe better strength and aggression, but I never felt this was an issue
  • 5* skill moves for skillers

Alex Teixeira Review

Trying to choose between him and Johnathon for the weekend League. This guy really is insane in all departments. He has that extra but of pace that is almost needed at this point with how fast the defenders are and his shots with both feet felt amazing. Would defo recommended trying him if you can fit him in your team

Best cheap Brazilian ST

What can i say? After using numbers of ST in this game (Lewandowski, Werner, Immobile, ..) with no success, I went to FUTBIN and tried to find some hidden gem. Then I found this absolute animal. I am currently using him with Douglas Costa and Willian. His speed is insane, feels very fast. His dribbling is also very good, he can controls the ball in tight space. His shooting is also out of this world, 4 star weak foot is a l...
