Player Review

97 - Premium SBC
5.0
David "Merlin" Silva
By Twiget, 15-06-2020

THIS IS A MUST DO CARD I can't stress enough how much this card changed my team. He finishes absolutely everything, is always in the right position, and is an absolute difference maker for any team. Don't be scared away by his 3* WF, his ability to maneuver on and off the ball makes it so that he never is in a situation where he has to shoot with his right. I would recommend this card to anyone who wants a passing style ST, or needs a dedicated CAM/CM. I played him both as a ST and a central CAM in a 4-2-3-1 and he was amazing in both. He scored some absolute bangers from no where in a time in this game where everyone's teams are TOTSSF CBs and GKs. He is by far the best CAM I've used. I run him with Sanes moments, Undav TOTSSF, and Gnabry TOTSSF, and he plays the entire game. He feels absolutely rapid with a Hawk, I don't think a hunter is necessary. This can't be overstated: do this card!

El Mago shines again

So after seeing his stats, and deciding to do his SBC, I threw his straight into the deep end that is WL. While his 3* WF might look worrying to some people, I can assure you that his qualities make up for that one flaw. His grace on the pitch, on or off the ball, is quite evident, but he is also a player of many hidden attributes that you might only notice once you actually start using him. I might be a bit biased since I...

Suprised by how good he is...

So this is my first Futbin review and I felt I needed to after trying this card.I saw the card and thought the stats were slightly underwhelming but in game he becomes totally different. I decided to play him in striker with a hawk in a 4-1-2-1-2 formation as I was looking for a Spanish striker and I couldn't have hoped for more.I played a few games with my friends and he scored about 2 i...

David Silva: The Wizard

I have been waiting for this card since November when Silva announced that he was leaving Man city. I was initially annoyed that the card did not get released, but now I am glad that EA waited until now so that Silva has received the end game card he deserves.The price of the SBC is around 300-350K. I think the price is fair considering the stage of the game and the fact he does have 3 star weak foot. With...
