Wow this guy is good
By tsunamiSurfer3, 26-09-2019

This guy is incredible. Personally he has been the best CDM i have used so far this year. Far far better than kante and allan, hes stronger and taller than both of them as well as being just as fast. I could tell a big difference between him and those two. I have also used viera and although he was better than delaney, he wasn't 2.5mil better. Delaney offers just as much as viera did for me, the only thing is he doesnt have that viera lunge when going into tackles. With the 2,5 mil i got from viera i bought butragueno and mattheus. In some cases i prefer delaney as he doesnt feel as clunky and heavy. Personally if viera was 200-300k i would have him instead of delaney but anything more than that and its just not worth it!

Great defending

Great physical, can push anyone off the ball

Good height, wins most headers in the middle of the park

Good passing, doesnt seem to misplace any

Okay dribbling, your not buying the card to dribble around an entire team but hes capable enough to dribble his way out of tricky situations.

Good pace, i have him with an anchor and hes pace feels perfect for me

Great stamina, lasts a whole game no problem

Shooting isnt great

For some people H/H work rates for a CDM isnt good but personally for me i like it especially with my tactics

Top Tier CDM
By krtrax, 05-11-2019

Delaney is a tank in the defense. I use him next to Allan in a 4231 as my LCDM and his is phenomenal in the air, strong in tackles and is incredibly fast. I bought him with shadow and his pace makes him a threat in the attacking third as well. He surprises me with some quick attacking runs and absolute laser one-time finishes. Not to mention his heading ability for near post corner kicks. All in all the best defensive mid I have used in the game. His passing is good and stamina means he will last the whole game. Has been great for me, best CDM I have used so far.

Good Passing

Good Shooting

Great in the Air

Great Defending

Amazing pace with shadow

Dribble could be better

a hell of a cdm
By JoooojNLW, 14-11-2019

So i started UT this year and the first card that i saw was Delaney

His stats look so on point for a cdm or cm,i started to use him as a Cm in the 41212 w/engine what surprises me is that he was vey smooth on the ball scored bangers from outside the box and the high stamina helped him to shine on my midfield

Later i switched to a 4231 because i had problems without the Wingers and my full backs aren´t that good on the attack,he is playing alongside Allan and the pair of the two is great

Good Longshots

Pace

Passing

heading and strength

heading isn´t that important because not even Crouch can score headers,but is a pro

Stamina

Can be Clunky without engine but as a cdm is fine

Not a true CDM
By ZackkFairr, 08-11-2019

I have seen some reviews for this man at CDM. While he works great there you are not getting the best out of him! you need to utilize him in a formation with box to box midfielders to appreciate his true talents.

Stamina - This card runs and runs. I always use him for 1-2's so he sprints up the pitch. He manages every game without fail. He can need a sub in Extra Time sometimes depending on how the game goes but 90% of the time there is no issue.

Positioning - In both a defensive and attacking meaning his positioning is fantastic. Defensively he intercepts the ball at almost every opportunity (assuming you haven't run him forward this time), attacking he finds the pockets he needs to receive and play the ball - as well as getting into some positions to score.

Tackling - While I said this man is not a true CDM defensively he is an animal. He wins almost every tackle you attempt with him and I love it.

Pace- With a Shadow this card is faster than some wingers and wide midfielders. What more can you want?

Shooting - His left foot in and around the box is incredible. His shot power and finishing feel so much better than the card suggests.

Passing - Short and long this man has no issues with passing range or accuracy.

Dribbling - Oddly considering his height and stats he feels good on the ball, balance and agility feel higher for sure, I have beaten many people with him.

Aerial prowess- 6foot tall with 90+ jumping and nearly 80 strength. What more can you need?

I truly love this card so CONS are hard for me.

Weak foot - I honestly thought he had a 3* weak foot because of how bad it is.

Skills - I think 3* is fine, especially as I don't very often use skill moves. I have never wished he had 4* when using him but for some I know this is an issue.
