Player Review

96 - Award Winner SBC
5.0
Thiago Award Winner Review
By juliansandys, 26-08-2020

I used this card in a 41212 narrow setup. I really loved his left stick dribbling around defenders and his ability to switch the play to the other side of the pitch. The weak foot upgrade to 4 star was really helpful with his ability to pass and shoot and it helped me feel more comfortable taking shots with his weak foot. Although he doesn't have the Finesse Shot Trait his finesses are very clean. He reminds me of a Coutinho TOTSSF card with the 5 star skills and the finesse shots and also the ability to left stick dribble. His sprint speed is a bit of a problem so I would recommend either an Anchor or a Shadow Chemistry Style. His Linkability is a 10/10 with cards like the Leon Goretzka RTTF, TOTSSF Lewandowski, TOTSSF Davies and Flashback Boateng in the Bundesliga and with Spanish links there is TOTSSF Ramos, TOTSSF Carvajal and TOTSSF Pozuelo. I would Rate him a 10/10 for Value as he is only 110k coins to complete and he is also a 96 rated card so at the very least if you don't like him you could use him as fodder.

Other Thiago Reviews

finally thiago is usable!

So today i decided to use Thiago in my WL just to test him out, and this is my conclusions after 30 games in an elite 3 finish.he is pretty good value as he is only around 160k which for some of his stats is a steal. He played cdm alongside birthday bakayoko, in a 4231 with a shadow chemstyle.feeks really similar to PIM Pirlo but obviously a lot better value

Quality Card - Thiago is useable!

Thiago is genuinely a cracking plur after this recent upgrade. He is now 93 rated and has an extremely usable card, both in stats and links. Firstly, his links are great - there are plenty of bayern munich special cards you can strong link him with in different formations, Boateng FB, Goretzka Moments, Lewandowski headliner - even Alphonso Davies / Kimmich's Moments cards if you have them. He also offers nice soft links int...

IF Thiago Alcantara

First off, I am a decent player, I'm in div 4, and I get 15-20 wins in WL, depending on the gameplay. To link this card, I play a 4-3-3 with 88 Coutinho LW, 88 Osimhen ST, 87 Okocha RW, Him LCM, 87 Aouar CM, 84 Mendes RCM, 87 Alba LB, 85 Lenglet LCB, 87 Kamara RCB, 84 Atal RB, and 91 Ter Stegen GK. In game I have tried him in a 4-3-3(2) at CDM, with Aouar and Mendes as my CMs with a shadow. He is hands down the best playmak...
