When I first saw him he had really good stats but I expected him to be even more expensive than Wan-Bissaka. But no, at least for me it’s an absolutely amazing price, just look at him, maybe his only con is sprint speed, but that’s all. And he also has a weak link with new Volland, which seems like a really interesting and fun card to use, and it’s obviously free, so why not? I had Douglas Costa RB, so I could link him, and it was quite cheap because I had some fodder like Kane and Oblak. But I wouldn’t recommend you to it as a super sub, because yeah he isn’t that expensive, but 250k it’s quite much for a sub. Unless you are rich or your planning him to use him in the future. AND he also has link with the free Coman, so the ones that did him GG.
High acceleration
Greats shots and a nice 4* wf
His passes are insane
The God of dribbling and really fun
4* skills
Links + Link with Free Coman
And Link with new CB Volland
Fair price
Perfect Work Rates
Maybe Sprint speed quite low
Strength could be better, but 74 is actually decent
Hi guys! It's me again. You might remember me from the Freeze Bailey SBC. Yes, I am a Bundesliga guy, so as you'd expect, I did this SBC pretty much the moment it came out. He is the card I've been craving for. I played at striker in the 4-2-3-1 formation and he scored 10 goals in 6 games of div 4. So let's get one thing out of the way, in my last review, I said Bailey could possibly be the best bundes striker, but I was so wrong. This Gnabry does everything he does and does it better. So let's dive right into his stats and my opinion on him.
His pace might seem a bit weird at first, with 95 acceleration and 83 sprint speed, but trust me, it's so good. With the hunter chem style, he has 99 acc and 93 ss and it shows. He reaches top speed before most cb's manage to start running after him. I ran past almost every defender you can think of, even RTTF Klostermann. This time however, I came across IF Walker and he was the only one capable of keeping up with him.
His shooting is on another planet. I was praising Bailey's shooting, but he is simply so much better than him. He scores how he wants, when he wants and with both feet. The combination of 95 shot power and finishing (with the hunter) and 84 composure would lead you to believe he doesn't miss and you would be right. Finishes every chance and only missed 2 shots in those 6 games.
This isn't something I was going to write, but you need to know this. When I scored my first 2 goals with him, I thought EA did a Lautaro Martinez by swapping his preferred foot, but no. Those first 2 goals were 30 yard screamers scored with his 4* "weak" foot (which is his left) and I can tell you for a fact it's a lie. Scored 7 of 10 on his left, including a hat-trick. Definitely feels like a 5* wf.
Again, because I played him at striker, I didn't test his passing too much, but he didn't miss a single one and let's be realistic here, his passing looks phenomenal. (apart from fk accuracy, but it's not a deal breaker) . No need for improvement here.
Now comes the best part of the card: dribbling. Boy, oh boy, is his dribbling fantastic. He feels so silky on the ball, much better than Bailey which also had a boost from the finisher. The 90 agility, 92 balance, 89 reactions, 91 in-game dribbling and 87 ball control, combined with god-like acceleration make him feel almost like Messi on the ball and I'm not even kidding. Has so much fun skipping past Van Dijk and Varane. Absolutely no need to improve his dribbling either.
Bad defending and heading accuracy, but you don't buy this card for that. Would've liked more ha, but no complaints here either.
Physicality is pretty good, but not great. Had him on stay forward, so stamina wasn't an issue. Jumping is decent, but again, bad ha. Strength is also decent, doesn't get bodied easily. Aggression is not good and won't fight for the ball.
In conclusion, this has to be one of the best Freeze SBC's and if you can fit him in your team, do it, you won't regret it! Forgot to say, but he makes a very good cam or winger if you don't want to play him at striker, just slap a hunter on him.
Pace with hunter, especially acceleration
Shooting with hunter
Passing
Dribbling
4* sm
4* wf, which feels like 5* to me
not unlinkable
Maybe price, but it's a central card, so I get it
Aggression
First of all, I have to say that my first Fifa was in 1998. That's why my playing style is a bit old school. My dribbling consists of slowing down and speeding up. I'm one of those guys that 14-year-olds destroy with their skills. The last Fifa I really played was Fifa 19, after which I decided to invest my time in more meaningful things.
My wife surprised me with a PS5. Of course, I had to buy Fifa 21. Idiot, I know.
Although I haven't played Fifa for the last few years, I always had an Ultimate Team because I was addicted to opening packs like everyone else. In my defence, I have never invested a penny in Fifa Points.
I love the Marquee matchups and got Varane and Kante from them once. So I had over 600,000 coins without ever playing a game and I love the Bundesliga because I live in Germany and the players are always cheaper than in the PL.
When I saw the SBC, I thought I need Gnabry, but I only had 60,000 coins. Then I did the first part of the SBC and, surprise surprise, I got Kante again, so I could finish the SBC.
My journey starts at the end of Division 7 and 2 days later I'm about to move up to Division 3. All thanks to this Gnabry card.
The card in my team makes such a big difference. Gone are the days when I got destroyed with 0:8,1:9 or 0:6.
- Almost every shot in the penalty area is a goal
- Gnabry pops up in front in every offensive action
- His shooting is outstanding, I had at least 5 games where he scored over 5 goals
- He feels so smooth and agile and is almost unstoppable by opposing defenders
- Almost all of his passes reach teammates.
- Even I as an old man, started trying to dribble more because it's so easy with Gnabry
- For someone like me who plays maybe 10 hours of Fifa a week, a card like this is a GAMECHANGER.
- With 220 000 Coins the SBC is not cheap, but worth every Coin.
- he is not very strong
- maybe his stamina will be a problem in WL games when it goes into the extra time
- His defence is decent, not outstanding, but we are talking about a CAM or ST
- Maybe the links, for someone who has no Bundesliga players in his team
