The BEST Super Sub!
By Supa, 01-12-2019

This is my first player review, and I feel it is a necessary one since at the time of writing Gelson has 0 reviews to his name. 


Gelson is my most prolific super sub and never fails to make an impact on the game late on. If you're still into bronze benching or generally don't care about your bench you should really take this review as a hint. Gelson sits amongst storyline Politano, seasons Zaha, Red Dybala and friends but is always called over first. In a 4-2-3-1 I'll usually shove him on at LAM, sometimes RAM. Your general strategy should be to bring him on around the 70th minute and burn your -- usually wheezing -- opponent's fullback.


It's incredible how many times I've nicked a goal totally against the flow of play due to this guy's pure speed. He feels faster for whatever reason that may be, fastest feeling player I've ever used! I'm starting to think it's down to body type but that's another story for another day. His 5* skills only increases the amount of options you have when entering the opponent's box, with multiple effective ball stops and bypassing moves.


For just 2,000 coins you have no excuse not to at least try this guy and bring him on late in the game. He is a total saviour, and extremely slept on. Needless to say, I will cry real tears if I don't reach his storyline card.
