77 - Normal
Okay, to start off... I just want to say that Boateng was my go-to man for FIFA 19 -- so I was excited about what he was going to be like in FIFA 20.
In FIFA 19, he was an ABSOLUTE BEAST on Hawk -- so I naturally gravitated towards putting a Hawk chem style on him after a couple of games (for comparison)(roughly 20).
It wasn't helpful, and he missed a lot of chances in front of goal -- easy chances... I was so disappointed and was more so every time I tried a new Chem Style -- nothing seemed to work.
I finally decided to try and really get the most out of him and not worry about the PACE (as it was already there) and focus more on shooting. Of course, I still wanted to increase the effectiveness of his headers (since he has 93 jumping) and felt he was a bit clunky this FIFA. Marksman seemed to fit what I wanted of him and upon trying it out on him, was immediately rewarded with my Boateng of FIFA 19.
I just clutched out a Gold 3 finish in WL thanks to Boateng -- honestly the MVP of the tournament. So this is what I found of him when playing him in WL:
-Fast (91 pace)
-Strong (doesn't go down easily)(80 strength and 80 balance)
-Good dribbling & ball control (95 agility, 79 ball control, and 84 dribbling)
-Wins headers (99 Jumping and 74 heading accuracy)
-Can finish inside and outside the box (scored some BANGERS for me)(87 finishing, 83 shot power, 76 long shots, and 83 volleys)
-4* WF
-Can do well with Aggressive Interception tactics (great for counter attacks)
-Can last the whole 90 minutes (80 stamina)
***ONLY 700 COINS***
-Can be somewhat inconsistent with his shots (69 composure)
-Not a very skillful player (3* skills)
-Passing (not ideal for a False 9)
-Positioning (may not be making the runs you want of him / unless forced) (H/H workrates and 78 positioning)
