Player Review
86 - LaLiga POTM SBC
Alright, so this card wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Even though you might have to adjust your playstyle, he is fun and good value for coins. I decided to put a hawk on him because I wanted to boost his shot power and strength. I have played 10 games with him in Div 2 rivals, and he has 16 goals and 5 assists. I partnered him with Raul up top because Raul has good passing and compensates for En Nesyri's weaknesses.
The best way to play with this guy is not to dribble or pass a lot, but to get other guys to set him up. You can also cross and head with him or score from corners. Another good way to play is to use lobbed through balls because he has strength to hold defenders off as the ball is in the air.
If you are an elite player that wants to play meta then this card isn't for you, but if you are a decent Gold 2/3 player like me that wants to have fun, try him out. He is so cheap and if you don't like him you can use him in an SBC.
- Shooting: With a hawk it's pretty much maxed out, you can feel it in game too. He does not miss.
- Strength is great, make sure to use LB/L2 lots to shield the ball from defenders. He is also good at winning the ball back in your opponent's third.
- Pace is good enough at 90 in my opinion but if you like spamming through balls and running then he isn't good for you.
- His passing is honestly very poor, he isn't good for tiki taka. Try to pair him up with a strike partner who has good passing.
- Dribbling isn't as bad as I thought. If you try to play him like Neymar and dribble the whole field then of course he won't work. The balance says 56 but I don't think it's that bad. Dribbling isn't great but it is serviceable.
- Skills at 3* isn't ideal, but if you are like me and don't rely on them it isn't too big of a deal. Body feints are kind of effective because your opponent doesn't expect it from a player like En Nesyri.
