Player Review
88 - Icon
Im a div 1 player with 2100+ skill points. I played him left cb in a 4 back and as a central cb in a 5 back. Imo hes too slow even with a shadow on, he gets out paces by gold cr7. His turns are slow and is even worse in delayed gameplay. His jocking speed feels very similar to a vvd which is slow and clunky. He can put a strong tackle in tho and wins the ball back every time when you slide or stand tackle, his strength and height helps him with it so there wont be bs where you tackle the player and it bounces straight back to the opposition. His passing range is exceptional as a cb, very nice lofted through balls to the overlapping wing backs and his driven passes are pin point accurate with both feet. His one goal came from a corner, the ball was bouncing around the box and he half volleyed it with his left foot into the top bins.
Id say hes very similar to a van dijk with the slow turns but strong tackles. He feels a bit faster than van dijk and has a better passing range than him. Van dijk beats him in the air tho.
Overall, Id say hes not really worth the coins, I just have him for the links. I think joe gomez is a better cb just becuase of the pace as its so important this year.
