Hmm I dunoooo
By Maguireismydad, 30-12-2020

So after packing him in my base icon pack I thought I should give him a go considering he was worth 1.2M at the time. He was in my team for around 40 games giving me enough time to fully understand how he plays and what the good and bad things are that he possesses. Firstly, I am a simple man. I like simple things. but having to change his position in game through my custom tactics was something I was not prepared to do. So with that I played him at his intended position of CB and well, hmmm, I don't know. On the ball he felt great and could make lovely advancing passes as well as fairly decent dribbling. His defending was fine, i felt I could trust him in 1v1 situations and also found his positioning and interceptions good. But. The guy is a midget. Not ideal for a CB and definately not ideal when he decides to position himself in the OP near post position for corners (which he never wins) usurping my taller players with better heading / jumping stats. He also did not feel strong enough to be a CB and could be found crying on the floor like a child numerous times in a game. This is why I don't rate him too highly and didn't feel he would have been worth the 1.2M coins.


Stick to Harry Maguire...(no seriously)

Lothar OP Matthaus

I start him at CDM with 7 chem in a 433(3) then switch to 4231 ingame. His work rates get him everywhere in the pitch. I never used to play possession but with him, the midfield is literally all him. Highly recommend. if you can switch him with any CDM that can play CB to get him at 10 chem also recommend that. Both my CDM's are High/High but I have stay back cover center on both. You...

He's litteraly everywhere

Got him from my swap icon base pack, and he's an absolute beast. When I say he's everywhere, I mean it : Defence, attack, goalkeeper, in my living room ... I play him as CDM in a 4222, with 7 chem he's almost as good as when I swapped him with a CDM at 10 chem. Next to gravenberch, or any other CDM, they'll cover the whole field and with his quality of passing, he'll be able to create solid counter attacks, especially in th...

MATTHÄUS THE GAME CHANGER

After I got these beast out from an base icon pack I was very happy because I always wanted to try him. So I slapped an Engine on him and started playing. What I can say after 31 games is that this guy is a game changer! He plays in 4231 at CDM next to Marquinhos Freeze and he is a beast. He wins every tackle. His passes are always on point. Sometimes he loses a header but this isn't really a big problem. With his High/High...
