87 - Bundes POTM

4.5

Amazing Winger

By nyclezz, 19-11-2019

Normally I don't write reviews after so few hours, but I want to help people with the decision whether they should complete the SBC or not. I played 4 games and think I understand what Gnabry plays like. First of all, I expected the price of the SBC to be more like 250k+, so him coming in at around 170k is relatively cheap, especially comparing him to Sancho who is considerably more expensive. Gnabrys feels really quick, although the pace upgrade is not great for a +3 OVR. His finishing decent, he doesn't miss easy chances so his composure of 80 seems high enough. One of his best assets seems to be passing. I felt like he could play solid final passes to get assists and his crosses were accurate. The only downside I noticed so far is the stamina. The stamina is not bad with 78, but you can feel him getting tired earlier than other players on the pitch. In conclusion, I believe you should complete him if you have nice german or Bundesliga links.

Dynamic, Fast, Beast

By CrimesTSC, 04-01-2020

Used him as a LAM is a 4-2-3-1. At first I played him with an engine and he was bang average, missing easy chances. Since I've changed him to a Hawk, he has become an absolut beast. He is best used to dribble round defenders and close shots to goal.

Pace - Play a chemistry style to boost his pace as 89 Sprint Speed can sometimes feel slow. Boost him to 94 and he feels rapid

Dribbling - He is very dynamic with his dribbling, skipping past defenders with ease. Cut in from the edge of the box, abuse fake shots and drag backs

Shot Power - With a Hawk he has near perfect Shot Power, one of the most important shooting stats this year.

4* 4* - I'd recommend playing him on the left to abuse strong foot, but his left isn't too bad. 4* skill moves is decent, you don't need to skill much with his dribbling stats

Strength - Sometimes goes down too easily when challenged

Stamina - A player of his pace with very average stamina, he can last a whole game but very barely. Feels much slower towards the end of a game

Composure - Can sometimes bottle easy chances due to low composure

Play as a striker

By SimiForward, 28-11-2019

In my opinion you have to play this dude as a striker! I got him together with my Emilio and they work incredible. They outpace and outdrible most of the defenders and both have a great positioning! The only problem is to get him on chem, so i would recommend Reus as a striker to make it happen. So i start in a 433 and then switch to 4222 ingame! Do this SBC honestly! I played Auba, Griezmann, Lewa, Mertens & Aguero but he clearly is my favourite (and "cheap") no-Icon striker!

Gnabry: Beast or Nah?

By Wafflz, 12-03-2020

Gnabry is such a polarizing player for me. I used to have him in my starting 11 however he was moved to the second team for fitness. On my A team, he was tragic. I played him at RW and he could never finish easy shots that should always be in. However once he was moved to my second team, he was instantly a better player. Alongside Werner and Tolisso, he excelled. I shifted him to either CAM or RAM depending on the game. he was far superior to how he originally played at RW. In conclusion, while his finishing is sub par, his play making is reserved for some of the best in the Bundesliga.

Not good enough at the moment

By Sinary, 30-12-2019

I was very euphoric when I saw that Gnabry gets a POTM.

Unfortunately, he didn't really convince me during the Weekend League. His biggest problem is 1vs1 against physically strong opponents like Mendy and Roberto Carlos.

I would rather advise you on Coutihno's second IF.

His shooting is powerfull enough and most of the time he scores if he is in position
His stamina wasnt a problem for me

He has no chance in 1vs1 against the meta defenders like Mendy, Carlos etc.
His speed feels even with 91 too slow (I compared him with Coutihno 2nd IF with Hunter and even Coutihno feels faster)
I tryed him as middle striker and even here, he has no chance
Compared to other wingers on that level he is overpriced
