the Juan and only

By FalcaoIsGoat, 09-02-2021

I played Cuadrado for 15 games in a variety of positions, CDM and RB in 4-2-3-1, RM in 3-5-2, and CM in 4-4-2. My review will be on his performance at RB, but I will say now that he can play any position other than GK, CB, and ST with success. I am a div 3 player, I played him with an anchor chem style.

I was up at 1 am and wasn't really thinking, so I decided to put my Kante in the double 85+ SBC and this mad lad popped out. When it comes to value, even with the 100k from Kante, I got almost double the value of players in the pack then what I put in the SBC, so I was really excited, especially because he is Colombian and a link to Tello. If you are looking for an attacking full-back, this is your man. He is super quick and agile, he is probably the best dribbling fullback on the game. His pace is amazing, there is no need to boost it, I just like the anchor defending boost better than the sentinel defending boost. His passing is nothing special, but his crosses are INSANE. Falcao is a master of the back post run when Cuadrado is set loose on the wing. Just hold RB and cross then tap B and it is a free goal, expect when Varane is on the line and he bicycle clears it back off of Falcao and out for a goal kick (true story). His defending is, in Gattuso's words, "sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe sh*t". He defends a bit like Davies IRL, he will get caught out of position, but then he will catch up to the guy and win it back. His tackling is very very good. Interceptions aren't special, but are not bad. The only reason I think this card should only be worth 200k is his physicality. It is just mediocre in general. His strength isn't bad, but not good, if you play him stay back, his stamina will last the full game, but you don't buy this card to not get in the attack. If you have Atal off the bench it is perfect. His aggression is very good, and when he tackles he tackles hard, which I like in my players.

Pace, With or without a boost he can keep up with anyone.
Versatility, Can play a wide variety of positions.
Links, Ronaldo, Sweedish guy, Tello, Muriel, Dybala etc.
Tackling, Great tackling, both standing and sliding.
Aggression, Not afraid of anybody.
Dribbling, Super fun to use. His elasticos are faster than Okocha's.
Crossing, great crosses and corners.
Long Shots, He hit a banger and hit the bar once.
5* skills, Fun.
Slight chance of a winter upgrade.

Stamina, Not terrible, but noticeable after the 80th min.
Strength, Not bad on the ball, but he can't muscle strong players off the ball defensively.
WF, Only bad if you want him as a winger.
Price, Probably a bit overpriced at 300k.

MOTM Cuadrado

On Saturday night I decided to finally complete marquee matchups as I fancied my chances of packing one of those beautiful future stars, but instead out of my premium electrum pack came this man. At first I thought of selling him but decided against as I had 16 games of WL left and was in desperate need of a strong link to my Dybala that I didn’t have to sub off. So I kept him for the WL and I do not regret it one bit.

Juan Cuadrado

All the games I played were in division 2 rivals. The way I lined up the squad was Lukaku/Mertens ST, El Sha LAM, James CAM, Adama RAM, Thiago and Kessie up the middle, Gosens LB, Cuadrado RB, Mina and Tomori CBs with Nick in goal. I used gladiator as my chem style, as I knew I'd want him on the wing as well as RB.After opening rewards, an 87+ x10, and my first 2 icon swap packs, this Cuadrado was pretty e...

Juan "El Patron" Cuadrado - Review

Another day has come to review a card which should be reviewed. I was always looking for a perfect link for my CR7 TOTY and finally I can say there is a perfect solution in the defending spots. For me Cuadrado is playing RB in a 4-2-3-1 or 4-1-2-1-2. But sometimes I will switch him ingame to the RAM position or RW. I'm a DIV1, Gold 1 player. So let's get in the review.PA...
