This player is a BEAST at RB

By Daxenz, 01-02-2021

So I needed a PL player to link up to flashback CR7 (which I totally recommend) and I thought that if in a 433 I put CR7 in RB position and Cancelo as CM I could them swap them and use Cancelo as RB with 7 chem and CR7 up front.

So I used him with anchor to boost up the strength a bit and obviously some pace and defending and I can say he's sooo good, before him I had Walker and compared with him you may fell him a bit slower but the defending will be the same, he's solid, he may be not the strongest man but I think that because of the unique body type he's much stronger than what the card says. His dribbling combined with the 4* skill moves will feel so smooth. He has a great passing and 3* weak foot is decent, that means he can associate with the CMs and wingers to make great counter-attacks. You can se he's shooting isn't great, but he knows how to shoot and score. Sometimes I've used him as CM when the ones i had are tired at the end of the match and I change them for a RB and I can say he's great at that position too, as I said before those passing and dribbling stats make him versatile, and the H/M workrates make him even better at that position.

Good links (Cr7, de Bruyne, Headliners Mahrez, Bruno Fernandes)
Low-priced (going to be even lower when cr7 expires)
Height (1.82m is great)

You probably won't have him on full chem
Strength (with 7 chem with anchor feels like 74-79 because of the body type but sometimes it isn't enough)
Aggression

João Cancelo

Best RB I've used on FIFA 21

I was hesitant about using him because I didn't really like his gold card. But his RTTF is a HUGE upgrade. Feels faster than the 89 pace he's given, feels agile enough on the ball and is tall enough to win headers. His 4* skills are nice to get you out of trouble every once in a while. Even his passing and finishing abilities have come in handy.

João Cancelo

One of the best CDM/CM out there

So the last weekend league has passed and I wanted to try out some new players with TOTS being out. So I went out and picked myself up a Cancelo and Ruben Dias for that perfect link (Capgun Tom will be happy). I actually intended to use him at CB and to play to the ratty meta. Just like to put it out there, he is an incredible CB, his agility and balance is top tier for the position but I felt his 98 attack positioning and ...

João Cancelo

UCL Live João cancelos

One of the greatest fullbacks I've ever played with. I put him CB off chem with a shadow and he still played like a beast. My very first game with him I wanted to test out his dribbling, so I gave him the ball, he felt so smooth and i was already confident that this card was a banger, Well I mostly figured that out when he ran threw the whole team and banged it in the net (fut champs). I also felt comfortable slide tackling...
