87 - Player Moments SBC
4.5
The French Akinfenwa
By chefthoma, 11-02-2021

this guy is pretty unbelievable. I am not a pro player by any means, I'm an amateur trader with a RTG squad in Div 2 and when I saw this Dembele my eyes lit up. He fit perfectly with my team and I was looking for a new attacker. I had fodder from TOTY and although I thought the price tag was quite high I was willing to pay a premium for the French La Liga links and whatnot. In terms of actual gameplay, make sure you put an engine on him, not a hunter. His reactions make him more responsive than he looks but an engine makes him feel like a 6'0' Messi. I tried him with an engine and a hunter and the difference is night and day. He is lights out in the box and the 4 star weak foot is fake, he has like an eight star weak foot. What sometimes let me down with this guy is his passing. With an engine its not bad, but his long passing is like sixty or something which isn't great when you're trying to start a break or something. Now, for the best part of the card-his physicals. This dude can and 100% will bully you off the ball, he is basically impossible to tackle, to be frank. Like if you're dribbling and you don't have any options you can literally just hold L2 and put you're controller down he's that strong. He also has unbelievable jumping, and with 95 heading accuracy you've got yourself a mini drogba fella. He is absolutely money in the air, i scored like five or six headers with this guy! And he can create massive amounts of space for himself in the box to latch onto the end of a cross with his 91 attack positioning. Definitely a slept on card, when I saw the futbin dislike rating was so high I was a little disappointed because how how unbelievable this guy was. Now, hes not full meta, by any means. He not 5 star 5 star, with 99 agility and balance, but he is very fun. And he can keep up with the big dogs just as well as anyone else! Look, I know the price tag may throw a few people off, and you may want to go with a cheaper option. But if you do complete this card you won't regret it!

Dembel"cheap and really good"e

This card is honestly probably the most value for money card I have ever done(ok thats probably not true, but still). If this guy was in the premier league, he would be worth a million coins and my PS5. Slap a finisher on this man and he is deadly infront of goal, and with 4* 4* he is just insane. Partner this guy with moments Suarez in a 4312 and you got yourself a team there. You probably dont need the other 9 players, yo...

La Liga's New Toy

I'll start this review by saying up until recently La Liga's striker positions have been a bit lacking. But in the past few weeks we've seen the likes of Suarez, then Isak, and now Moussa Dembele. All three have unique qualities, but of them I think Moussa is the best option for anyone looking for a great value striker. At full price his 200k is a tough swallow, but if you can manage a cheap purchase he is worth your coin. ...

What a card....

Dear lord, i did this sbc because i had a load of fodder from toty and omg am i impressed. Genuinly one of the best strikers ive used this year. Typically i'll use the smaller more agile striker like mertens or martial but this card has changed that. His main attribute is his finishing, i genuinely can't remember his putting a shot wide, consistently on target. He feels surprisingly agile for someone who's six foot tall as ...
