I really think that FIFA puts in some kind of debut bonus. Ever notice new players tend to really perform, but then they average out. With De Bruyne I had the opposite experience. He was nowhere, he didn't score a goal or make an assist in my first 5 games. Then I just slowed down a bit and looked for De Bruyne to transition. De Bruyne is the pace setter for the squad. This not only improved his performances, but my whole game. Instead of playing at a pretty constant tempo, I'm in possession for one attack, then a counter, next down the wing, once a longshot, then a dribble into the box. This makes me much harder to defend.
Shooting is amazing, and with sniper he is deadly in the box as well, which is useful because he makes perfect delayed runs.
Passing is the best I've used in the game.
On a dead sprint, he feels way faster than the stat suggests.
Positioning: Always an outlet, always finding space.
Dribbling: Despite a large boost to agility and balance, don't expect to dribble around players like Messi. He has perfect control, but turns are a little slow. This isn't really a con, but if this card could dribble like Messi, there wouldn't be a better card in the game.
Hi Guys!
First sorry for my bad english! I'm from Austria. Before the Weekend League I thought about getting De Bruyne Inform. When one came on the market, which was relatively cheap, I did not think long and have bought it! I played him as ZOM. He is really a game changer against slightly worse opponents. His shots are unbelievably good. Every pass arrives. De Bruyne is very strong in dribbling but he still feels a bit immobile. When playing against very good opponents in the Weekend League, it often happened that De Bruyne was almost invisible for most of the match. Defensively, he works well back and also physically he is very strong. All in all, he is a very very strong player but I do not know if he really is the player who decides against good players the game alone!
