Memphis Depay Player Moments
By Ganges, 07-12-2020

This SBC caught me off guard; I´m a big fan of Depay and was already using his gold in my squad, so I immediately new I had to do this SBC. Been using for over a week and I gotta say, he kinda reignited my will to play FIFA, as I wasn´t really feeling it anymore. Anyway.

I played him as a CAM with engine in the 433 (4) formation with Mane as striker. I played 20 Rivals games with him in Division 2.


Pace:

His pace is nothing special. He´s fast, but not Mane fast. Don´t get me wrong, he is really fast and he doesn´t feel slower than what´s displayed on the card. He can outpace defenders, but as I said, he´s not Mane.


Shooting:

His shooting is something different. I used him with an engine, therefore his shooting wasn´t even boosted. You can really feel the shot power and longshot upgrade. He honestly feels like FIFA 19 Felipe Anderson OTW with his finesse shots. If you can get a finesse shot out, he´ll bury it, doesn´t matter if inside or outside the box.

His finishing isn´t the best, but as I said, I´m using him with an engine on CAM, so I really didn´t need it anyway, but I´m sure his finishing will be great with a hunter or hawk, if you´d want to play him as striker.


Passing:

His passing was nice. His short passing is great, so you can have good combinations in front of the box; had many nice combinations with Mane.

His long passing was also good, especially if you have a fast and physically present striker like Mane, the long passing really stands out, as you can easily send Mane on his way.


Dribbling:

He´s obviously no Neymar, but I´m very content with his dribbling. With engine he feels very good on the ball even with his stocky body type. He can´t be pushed off the ball easily. The composure upgrade is also very noticeable in comparison to his gold card, he can pass the ball or get a good shot off, even when under massive pressure.


Defending:

Doesn´t really matter as a striker and also very little as a CAM, so I won´t go much into detail. But he really won some balls while going back, but thats mainly because of the pace and physical, that´s kinda all you need to have, to defend this year.


Physical:

That´s beside the shooting his best pro. He feels very strong on the ball, as he can hold of defenders pretty easily. The likes of Joe Gomez, Varane or Kante had a really hard time defending him, as their physical isn´t the best. His stocky body type also helps.

+Definetely the long shots. I don´t know how he does ist, as he doesn´t even have the finesse shot trait, but he does it anyway. Feels like FIFA 19


+ His physicality. He can easily hold off defenders, and it helps going back. Even with this much physical, he feels really agile


+5 Star skills, if you know how to use them

-3 Star weak foot, but you only really notice it, when shooting with his left. Passing isn´t really affected, but it´s not as bad as for example Salah´s


-Stamina. When using as CAM, you´ll need to sub him off in like the 70th minute


-5 Star skills, if you don´t know how to use them

First review of the year

First of all, I have to say that I waited a fair amount in order to review a card this year. When I saw this Depay I knew I have to do him in order to fit him near the RB Denayer (which is so good for me). Depay is the kind of striker that can change a game at 180 degrees with his ability on and off the ball. But, if yo...

Sweet PAY

This is my first review, and a great one I hope, I scored 10 goals and delivered 8 assists in 10 matches on DIV 3 and 2, His only weakness at least for me was his weak foot other than that this lad was extraordinary, for its current price I would say is more than worth it, right now H is one of the best CAM on the game at my personal opinion.Used it in a 41212Chem Style: Engine
