Player Review

84 - SIF
4.5
Best RB quality/price
By Ciof, 20-12-2020

This is the first time i write a review so i apologize for my eventual mistakes but english is not my mother language.


When i looked at this card before the WL i thought that he was really good and when i saw his price at just 20k i thought that i should give him at least a try. I bought him to replace my freeze Torreira needed to link Felix and Gimenez; so I sold the uruguayan and put him on the right and Mendy on the left. I play a 4231 or 442 in WL.


This man for 20k is an absolute steal (or a gift as you prefer), i played the entire fut champs with him (anchor chem style) and never made me angry.


He's always on the right spot and his interceptions and tackles are really clean.


With his pace he can catch litterally anyone, Mbappè and Werner included. Moreover he can recover from his mistakes quite easily.


What i loved about this card is the passing, which is pretty much always accurate. Of course he's not a Pirlo or a Xavi who can pass through ball like cutting butter, but is way way better than Walker.


About his dribbling i just need to say that he doesn't feel clunky at all, the only think i noticed is his low reactions, but as i said he can fix his own mistakes so it isn't a problem at all.


The stats on the physical are true, he's never tired and he doesn't lose many fights. Maybe he needs more aggression, but for my playstyle it was good.


I didn't taste his shooting because i don't play my full backs offensively, but i think that in a 352 as RM can do pretty well.


In conlusion: this is maybe the best RB quality/price, but if you need he can play (in my opinion) really well as CDM in a 4231 or right CM in a 41212 narrow. If you can link him you have to give this guy a shot, trust me.

THIS CARD IS INSANE!

Where to start? I completed his SBC as a replacement for Ferland Mendy, big boots right? Not for this man! Playing him at LB on 7 chem linking to IF Ryan Kent and he is a BEAST! He bully's players and does not stop until he comes away with the ball. You can't out-pace him, you can't out-strength him and with any defence boosting chem style, you can't get passed him. His passing is great and starts counter attacks lik...

absolute monster

I was looking for a good RB since LB Ferland Mendy irreplaceable. And this guy is the counterpart of my defense.Tavernier is a Top Tier RB, like Valencia in FIFA 18 or Kenny Lala in 19.I link him with Gomez and Jadon sancho in a 451 and all what i can say, this card is a must have if you want to achieve a mount everest of a defense.Walker and Bellerin had a weird style of playing, looked to w...

Bossernier

Only played a few games with this tank, but boy is he insane. He can play almost anywhere on the pitch, ignoring his 3* 3*. He is always there to sweep up and I link him to inform Kent in a 451 on the left side. In attack this guy bosses it too, banging goals in link a machine, and he is 99.99% going to get upgraded at the beginning of next month and then he will be even better ...
