400k worth or not?

By cirkat07, 29-11-2020

So here is my opinion and experienced:

Fast story how I got him, got lucky in BF to get Varane, Alisson and have some 110k coins in the club, decided to sell those as I had Ederson and in defence Militao-D.Carlos does the job very well for now, so I sold them 2, got the money and bought him for 430k, now when i write the review he is 410k, 20k loss? No. He is just too good to cry for 20k.

I use a hybrid squad with the trio of Teixeira Hero - Talisca RB and Paulinho IF alongside with Renato Sanches IF and Gelson Martins (planning to change with Alessandrini) and the only piece left was a LW/LM from Brazil in order to play all of them in 10 chem, Neymar is too expensive, so I went with the Douglas Costa gold card, he was very good but this.. oh god.

First 1-2 games I didn't like him, for me it felt clunky lol, he just got the ball and turned around hard but then his engine started and its just wow, the way he runs, skill moves, even Van Dijk or Ramos are just some toys for him with his agility and dribbling, the fake shot, the movement he is just too good.

I tried to play him as LW too and switched Talisca as ST, its good but not reaching the maximum potential, so back to ST and the duo Douglas Costa - Alex Teixeira is just deadly.

In conclusion if you have the coins and want an end game card to complete your squad.. he is the right choice.

Oh I forgot to say this, even if he has 3* WF, I have some emotions when he shoots with the right foot, tru, but when he goes with the left one.. good luck.

Agility, ball control, fake shot, skills, movement

Speed, very good speed combined with DRI

End game with his left foot

Very small player, super agile

Stamina, after min 75 he starts slowing down, but he is still usable as you can just dribble and pass to the other ST

Small, never wins a heading battle

3* WF sometimes, but with the finishing he has with Hunter he still score some bangers with right foot

Douglas Costa

For god's sake is this guy ...

... insanely good!I usually don't write reviews but since you guys have to go through the comments, I thought I give this card credit and write a review. I've been using him in for WL matches, replacing Sané. I kept him because I just wanted to try him out; I had him in Fifa 19 and he was great back then so I gave it a shot, I also had the coins to spare. And guys ... I didn't even think of Sané in any second, heck...

Douglas Costa

The Kyrie Irving of Fifa

For Contextual Reasons, I am a Div 1 player with 2200 skill rating. When trying to put into words what this player is like, I immediately thought of Kyrie Irving - A dribble god. For non skillers he’ll perform like your run of the mill pacey winger, but for anyone who even likes to merely dabble in skill, Costa will unlock a different dimension to your game. His body type along with his dribbling stats and flair le...

Douglas Costa

The best forward in the bundesliga. (EASILY)

Originally i wasn't going to do him but as soon as i saw his stats with his price i knew i had to do him. And he is exactly what he looks like on paper. Put a marksman on this guy and he is just MAD. I gave him a 9.7/10 because I cannot make clear how godly this card is, but just on the base card he already has crazy pace, dribbling, passing, even shooting (for douglas costa) is amazing. Give a bunch of them upgrades and th...
