Player Review
84 - SIF
Last month, when Bamba was elected POTM in Ligue 1, I first thanked the gods for not choosing Mbappé or Ben Yedder. But my joy was short-lived when I saw that Bamba 86 cost over 500k, almost the price of Neymar! Nevertheless, with a goal and the victory against Bordeaux, Bamba is for the second time in the Team of the Week, to the delight of Ligue 1 players! For 65k to buy, I quickly replaced my Griezmann IF for this wonderful sprinter, who worked miracles on my left side, with 21 goals -and some bangers-, and 17 assists in 40 games.
- Pace : 92 speed makes him one of the fastest player in the game, and opponents feel it !
- Passing : 83 is really good, mostly for a winger. He doesn't miss any big opportunity to score, and I put Finisher to improve his volleys and finishing
- Dribbling : Bamba's dribbling are magnificent, he feels really touchy on the ball, I don't remember a single time he lost the ball after dribbling. 4* Skills allow him to do some fanciful figures, like the rainbow trick, that he masters to perfection -as computer users can see in the video at the bottom of my review- even Neymar and Ronaldinho are jealous ;)
Yeah, 80 Passing and 70 Physicality are not perfect. But you would have to be pretty bitter to focus on the negative points, they are so minimal, especially for this price and this position.
To conclude, I can say that this Bamba is not THE game changer. But for this price, you have a really complete player, who makes a good break between Saint-Maximin and Neymar JR. Don't be shy and buy him, he will be an dynamic first-team player, or a performant super-sub !
