The best Left footed CB in the game
By Zlatan213, 22-11-2020

If you watch football alot you would know how left footed CB´s are talked about alot when discussing center backs. I really didn´t think about it like it should be important when playing FIFA. The reason I started looking for one was that I was always seeing good runs from my left sided attackers when the ball was at my LCB feets but 9/10 times the pass was horrible cuz I was using a right footed CB with 2-3* WF so I decided to look for a left footed CB and came across few good ones: Alaba, Lenglet and Ake but Laporte was the one I decided to go with and man.. he changed my team alot more than you think.


Overall

This player is a elite ball playing left footed CB with unique long balls and is so composed under pressure, he really loves being under pressure, thats where he shines, with 87 Composure, 90 Reactions, 80 Ball Contro & fantastic passing stats he is so good when in tied situations.


I play 4231 possesion and 442 long ball and he fits perfectly in those two systems. The Long Passer Trait is a game changer for him, he makes a long ball like he is prime Micheal Carrick passing it to RVP back in 2012


Value For Coins

He is worth it if you already got a great team. I would not reccomend any CB worth that much to anyone if you dont have a good team, but if you have a good team, then he is worth every coin.


Tip

I scored alot goals this WL just cuz of him. You need to take advantage of his build up play skills.


The one tactic I did was this:

Hold L1 and pass to your LB with your LM. Pass to Laporte and make a lobbed through ball (L1 triangle pass) with him to your LM and he is now in a great counter attack.

There are many other ways that I use and you will figure it out.



  • Passing - His long balls are unique and he is really good at playing the ball from the back, dont forget, the Long Passer trait is real and make sure to take advantage of it.
  • Defending - He is one of the best defenders in the game, reminds me of CB Capita.
  • Under Pressure - He is so good under pressure. with 87 Composure, 90 Reactions and 80 Ball Control he is so good when in tied situations
  • He is Left Footed - Left CB´s are very rare in this game and he is the best one.
  • Easy to link - He´s french and in the Prem
  • Heading - He is not going to be scoring alot from corners but I got RB Lukaku and Cantona in my team for that
  • Pace - Dont take this as a Con, I put it here just to let you know that I think its best to have a faster defender beside him, I use IF Gomez.


There really are not many cons to him, he´s almost perfect.

An honest review

Ok I’m not one to jump on the overpriced bandwagon, when you get the new fifa you go from expecting 95 rated beasts for 60k to 83 rated 200k players who don’t play to the level you’ve spent probably 5 months or so enjoying. Fati was one I was surprised people gave hate to, it’s a quality card and in my head 170k wasn’t too bad considering how well he plays but with money especially tight for most right now I can s...

Underrated

Don't be fooled by the pace. This guy is a beast at the back. I have him partnered with Aké in the back and he is amazing. Put a shadow on him and his pace is very nice, and defensively is unstoppable. He is also great at distributing the ball once he gets it, and is rarely dispossessed. Would definitely recommend picking him up if you're looking for more defensive security.

Geese he is mad

I looked at the other review and my good it is so wrong, he is incredible at defending and even with his bad dribbling is perfectly fine on the ball, he makes great interceptions and loads of tackles. In the air he isn't the bad but obviously his jumping isn't the highest so he isn't crazy good although he did score a solid header for me 1:15 in the video. His pace is phenomenal and because ...
