Player Review
88 - SIF
I have been using Rulebreaker Pogba for over 200 games and to be honest was really happy with him, he has been a rock of a CDM alongside baby Blanc. I was then lucky enough to get the new 88 Pogba in my reds and couldn't justify having coins tied up in the Rulebreaker so sold him and went with this version during this WL (Gold 1). The first difference you will notice with this card above the Rulebreaker is the passing and WOW it's so much better! Yes, you lose some defensive stats (but with a shadow he still does the job) but he just feels like such a more rounded player and is all over the pitch; just seems to be where you need him, when you need him! To me it's crazy that the Rulebreaker card is 400k more....must just be the card design lol. Seriously, if you are in the market for a box to box CM this card offers tremendous value and won't disappoint. As a lone CDM is is probably not good enough but paired up with another CDM he is definitely a solid option. I started him alongside Blanc in my usual 4231 and gave him the freedom to go forward more, with Blanc on stay back (a switch from the roles I has with the Rulebreaker card) and for me it worked really well improving my WL record from 19-11 to 21-9, in my eyes that's a win and why I would rate him as the best version at the moment.

Dribbling (doesn't feel at all clunky!)
Defence (not as good as the Rulebreaker but did the job)
