Literally Neymar's long lost brother
By matthewsouter, 19-11-2020

When the rttf Atal card came out I decided that I needed to pair him with Mahrez's gold card since I love my skills and saying that this guy is one of the best dribblers I have seen this year yet would be nothing but the truth. As soon as he first touched the ball I knew he was gonna be something special so I'm sure you can understand how excited I was once I started seeing this card in TOTW predictions. I'll admit I was a bit anxious to pick up the card as I bought him at a bit over 200k, but I would say that it was worth every single one of my coins. So now after using the card for a bit I can confidently say that he's very much so worth your coins and if you were on the edge about upgrading from the gold card then hopefully this can help convince you yo make that upgrade. After only 14 games playing as a my middle CAM in 4231 he's scored 16 times and assisted 13 in division 4 around 1300 skill rating.

  • pace (although it may not show it on the card he is absolutely rapid with the ball)
  • dribbling (probably the best dribbler I've used this year)
  • 5 star skill moves
  • 4 star weak foot (feels like a 4.5)
  • magic left foot like Leo (this applies with literally anything)
  • passing (he has some of the nicest through balls in the game IMO)
  • FINESSE SHOT (insane whip goes in every time)
  • shot power (super awesome on both feet goes in every time he gets a shot off inside of the box)
  • league


  • very, very weak (sometimes it feels like he's a wee noodle when around bigger defenders)
  • you might hurt your opponents feelings
  • pretty pricey
  • hard to link nation (you almost need rttf atal)

Better dribbler than Neymar?

So I saw the Mahrez SBC come out for the daily 6pm promo and I knew I had to complete it for my La Liga/PL hybrid. The SBC itself wasn't to expensive so I completed, and although his base stats didn't look to special, this card is insanely good. I used him this weekend during FUT Champs and he was insane. I played him as a central CAM in a 4-2-3-1 behind Joao Felix and he supplied many assists and goals.

Mahrez the goat

Riyad Mahrez is an insane player in fifa 21. He's the perfect example of meta. Since this fifa is all about through balls and dribbling, Mahrez sets the perfect example for what to expect from top tier players. Watch the youtube video below to see how well he performs.

A must have

Hey guys,I did Mahrez for some reasons: he's 5*4*, RW/RM and has very good stats.When we look to Premier League we can only see few options when we think about RM/RW player: Salah and Lucas. Some use Raphinha, some use previous versions of Mahrez or even Bale but there is few options to put on your team so this Mahrez is a must have for the ones that isn't very happy with Salah's 4*3* and...
