81 - IF

The All Positions Player

By MrG1908, 21-10-2019

There are many more incisive and expensive alternative in the Premier League, but for 10/12k this card it is an absolutely bargain.

He start as a right CAM in my 4231, as a left footed player he is able to cut in and his 4 star weak foot keeps him quite unpredictable in his plays.

He his not the fastest or strongest and neither the best finisher, but he is pure quantity and consistency, he only has 3 star skills that keep him simple, but effective thanks to his great stamina(93).

I usually never sub him because he can go all 90' min easily even with High/High work rates, that makes him helpful in both phases, attack and interdiction.

His great value is in his ductility, he is able to play in every position of the midfield effectively. I often switch formation in game, and he is the one moving around for the team and no matter if he is playing CAM, CM or CDM he always perform.

In the future, with the release of new cards and the gain of more coins, he will be put on the bench, but he will have a spot there for long time because he is the kind of card that can solve any kind of problem as a sub, it does not matter if you get a red card or you are changing tactics and formations, this guy will give you solutions. Without applying chemistry styles his lower position rating is 75 as CB and ATT.

If you are looking for a game changer look elsewhere, but you are definitively in the right spot for a team player.

One of the best box2box players (84 version)

Cheap but equal version of Wijnaldum

Looked at all of the stats and thought, these seem familiar, to Wijnaldum! They are nearly identical. Tried him out and he played extremely similarly to wijnaldum. McGinn got into scroing position time and time again. He finished most of his chances. What really surprised me was how well he got back defensively. Even though he played on the left side of my formation, his 4* weak foot showed. Ball off his right foot w...

Hey there!!Just played the last FUT Champs with this guy in my squad. I got him in rewards and tried him out in the first WL matches, but kept him cause he’s a beast. He’s just sooooo good. I used him as CM (with Gladiator chem) along with Matthäus in a 4-4-2, so I needed him to defend and attack and he nailed it. With 81 strength and 88 balance there's no way to make him fall or get the ball from him. Very good...
