89 - Headliners Upgrade
After doing the Gnabry Freeze SBC, and getting really lucky by packing Kimmich in my red Picks, I had to get my hands on this Headliner Goretzka, to build a full German Bayern Munich midfield. When I saw his stats at first I thought he would probatly cost around a Million coins. After I checked his price again, 2 days later, his price settled at around 500k. So I decided to pull the trigger, and get this man into my team.
I played him for 30 division 1 Rivals matches as a CDM in the 4-2-3-1 formation with Kimmich as the other CDM and Gnabry as the CAM. Kimmich had the instruction to "stay back while attacking", "man mark" and cover center. I only gave "cover center" for him, so he would make those offensive runs when needed.
And Man, he didn´t let me down. I´ve used 89 Bruno Fernandes and 82 Renato Sanches before as box to box midfielders, and I liked him better then both of them. After putting a Shadow chemistry style on his card, he felt very fast and his defending was superb. I would commpare his defending, to the defending of players like Desailly or Zakaria. Long legs are very Meta this year for midfielders, and because of his height and his strenth, he manages to bully almost all players off the ball, or tackles the ball off them. His passing is great, and his shots are also very good. - If you take a shot in a good position, you can rely on him to score. Because of his height and body type his dribbling feels a little bit heavy. Especially compared to small players like Kante, Kimmich or Renato Sanches. That wasn´t a problem for me though because I relied on my smaller players for the dribbling in the last third, and used him to distribute balls finish the balls.His offensive positioning made that very easy, because he runs into empty spaces on the pitch and therefore, you can almost always pass the ball to him.
And now let´s get to the most amazing part about this card: It´s price. Of course he is expensive, but compared to similar players, he is a bargain. Especially if you take in consideration, that he plays for Bayern, and will most likely get many upgrades. As of today Bayerns will be the big favourite to win their next 4 matches, and since they are the dominatnt team in the bundesliga, getting 4 wins in a row should be well possible for them for a couple of times. If I had to guess, I would say, that this card will go up to be at least a 92.
As a counclusion, I have to say, that if you can link him into your team, he is a must get. He has a brilliant card already, and with some upgrades, which he will probatly already get soon, he will be out of this world.
Pace feels great for Midfielder
Strength
Passing is very good
Shooting is decent
Stajmina will last you a full match
Defending is out of this world with a shadow
Gullit Gang ^^
PRICE
He feels a bit heavy because of his agility
Sometimes you have to force him to come back on defense, because of his meduim defensive workrate. Shouldn´t be a problem though, when you play him as a box to box with another defensive minded midfielder.
