Player Review
87 - TOTY Honourable Ment
After trying him for 6 games I feel like he is one of those players that are more than just decent, but also don't have anything special about them. Although I have to say his passing is extremly good. For an offensive player his pace is good enough but nothing great. Combined with his dribbling he feels quite fast and agile, but has no chance against 90+ pace players (even with hunter). He is quite tall which is why he's not the stupidly agile type of player like Sterling, but it makes his strength feel better than the 69 stat on the card (more like ~75). His stamina is good enough. Bad jumping doesn't really matter and his low aggression might become a problem if you play him anywhere behind the CAM position. Shooting felt really good, curve shots were very effective with his strong foot and even with his weak foot he scored when he was close to the goal. His defending obviously isn't really good, but for a CAM it is more than enough and I even think with a chem style he could be played at CM in a 41212.
Overall I would say he is a great playmaker in a 4231 formation (that is where I mostly played him), but is also useable on the wing (if you are okay with his pace there) or as an attacking CM. Passing is his best attribute, which is nice to have for build up play, but not enough to be a game changing player in offense in Fifa 21.
- amazing passing
- dribbling
- weak foot feels like 4* (+probably gets upgraded)
- curve shot and finishing
- pace (only on the wing)
- nothing special about him except great passing
