82 - Squad Foundations
I recently bought Sinclair to link up with my fresh EOAE Rooney, and his stats didn't look half bad. Starting off, his pace is absolutely crazy. One good through ball and he sends them defenders AWAY. His shooting is very good inside the box with a finisher, especially when you power it far post, but he does miss some sitters every few games. His 4-star weak foot feels like 5 which is a big pro. His dribbling with a finisher is insane, with 99 agility, you go one then the other, then do the L1 fake pass and you're good to go. He also has 4-star skills which is great. His passing isn't the best, but a ball roll pass should work 90% of the time, its no KDB, but it's not garbage. Now you might not expect defending to be good, so didn't I, but holy crap he actually defends alright, and I honestly wouldn't mind playing him left-back, he loves rushing to the ball after tackled, and it got me a few goals. His physicality isn't insane but for a winger, but 81 strength and 94 stamina are amazing for a winger, and a few times, he avoided getting bodied by the likes of Klaiber and Semedo. In division 4 I do not mind playing this guy over my old Alessandrini.
Pace, Rapid AF. 9.8/10
Shooting, does well in the box. 8.9/10
Dribbling, Twists, and turns with no issue, sending RB's away. 9/10
Defending, tackles are a lot better than I thought. 7.2/10
Physical, more than enough for a winger. 8/10
Body type feels very solid.
Cost.
Work rates.
DO NOT JUMP WITH SINCLAIR.
Passing isn't the best unless it's short passes.
Links, you're gonna need a sweet Rooney, or a Dackinho (Sick Card BTW.)
