VVD without pace
By sw19, 20-10-2019

This guy is VVD without pace, after using VVD's loan card i havent found anything similar to him, i've used koulibaly, de vrig, laporte and sanchez in drafts. ive used Bailly, ake and joe gomez in div 4 rivals and fut champs. even the 81 pace of joe Gomez doesnt make him more useful than maguire. only in though ball situations.


you know when the striker gets the ball on the edge of the box, back to goal and you cant touch him because most CB's foul? Maguire doesnt, his natural strength pushes that player off balance without pressing O/B, just push on them with LT/L2. He's 6"4 has the larger, stocky player model just like VVD so it takes attackers forever to run around him, just like with VVD you have to make sure he's nowhere near you if you want to get by. also with his tackling he comes away with the ball, not just poke it and allow the attacker another chance, 90% of the time he knocks them off balance so he claims the ball completely.


in the air he's incredible, i can speak on this in an attacking sense because defensively he doesnt really get chances ( headers are stupid this year and dont work). but from my attacking corners, he stands at the front post and wins headers just like fifa 19, less strike rate due to nerfed headers but so good its actually worth crossing to him instead of playing the ball short. (2 goals in 11 champs games from corners).


chem style. i used a sentinel because i got maguire in a pack. i had a few in my club and wasn't going to risk wasting coins on an anchor or shadow if he was bad. i think this was the right move because even a shadow isnt going to change his luck in a foot race. sentinel gave him 99 strength and 94 jumping on a man who's 6'4!! thats how i got those headers so easy

  1. Size. as mentioned in review hes 6'4 and has the same player model as Van Dijk. which means it takes an age for even fast attackers to attempt to run round him.
  2. Strength, once he gets shoulder to shoulder its over. its Harry's ball, dont argue. no matter if 50/50 or the attacker is running
  3. Tackling, the distinction i make between this and strength is if the tackling player actually keeps the ball afterwards. Harry does more than most.
  4. Arial ability. we all know headers are absolute P*ss in this game but Maguire really does attack the near post just like fifa 19. scored 2 headers with him already in just 11 games of champs
  • Pace, obvious but when left without support he gets burnt for pace easily by pretty much anyone on a through ball.


  • Dribbling, Maguire is actually more comfortable on the ball than most centre backs i've used due to his composure, ball control dribbling combo. but this is a con due to his lack of agility. dont attempt any 90 degree turns or fake shot turns.

Harry Slabhead Maguire

(This review is the review of the card with a shadow chem style) I have used Slabhead for 12 games on rivals rn and he is better than my gold VVD. His strength and defensive stats are really good and he is really solid. His pace is good with a shadow and his agility and balance I don't seem to notice. His passing is brilliant and can bail you out at times and also set up a counter attac...

Great defender!

In my opinion he is a great defender and it is an insane value for the amount of coins. I bought him for 10,500 coins. His standing tackles and his positioning is great and his strength is just as you wish for! You will not regret it in buying his Ones To Watch card, because he almost goes for discard price. Just try him. If he gets one or two inform card he will be more than just a good defender. If you dont like hi...
