Player Review
79 - Rare
So I was lucky enough to pack Sissoko untradeable very early, I believe around a week after full release. I had packed Fabinho 87 untradeable the second day(?) and I had been using him along with LLorente as my two CDMs up until that point, but I knew I'd have to try Sissoko. I replaced Fabinho with him, who had been ok, but he felt too slow and very stiff on the ball. Sissoko was the polar opposite. With a shadow His pace feels very good, although his acceleration is slightly lacking. What is truly special about him is his giant frame in game paired with his crazy physicals, making him an absolute tank. He bullies anyone who dares try and dribble past him. He is def the best CDM I have used so far, out of Valverde, LLorente, Fabinho, and Allan being the better ones I've used. What is surprising about him is his ability on the ball. He doesn't feel clunky, or at least not as clunky as you'd think, and he is a decent dribbler. He also is reliable when it comes to short passing. So in summation, if you were wondering if you should buy Sissoko, the answer is a resounding yes.
