Neymar 2.0

By frederikrexx, 25-02-2021

Wow, what a player! I did this guy right when he came out, and I've used him in nearly a month now. 400 games, 200 games, 200 assists. Wow.

I use him as a RM in a team (4-4-2) where I have Neymar on the LM also, so to players that are basically equal, and they are, indeed!

Ribery is very agile, and can come past any defenders with just using the left stick dribbling probably, he does the stepovers like they were never nerfed. He's pace is what you expect, very quick. I feel like he has better psychics than what it says on the card, he can easily hold players off the ball, and even win the ball back sometimes against very psychical players, I think it's he's body type & stock that makes him feel more psychical than what it says. He's passing is just insane, no matter where you are on the pitch, he will do a long pass all over across the pitch like it was nothing. Ribery's shooting is what makes him stand out compared to Neymar, I would say: this man's shooting is out of this world. In school Ribery never learned what a weak foot is, and I actually prefer he's left foot over he's right foot even do it says he's right footed on the card, as I also play him as a RM, I score all of the goals with he's left foot. Actually the only difference between he's right & left foot is that the mechanics in the game wan't let him perform an outside of the foot shot with he's left foot. If you angle him up to a finesse shot perfectly, he forgets that he doesn't have the finesse trait, and perfectly strikes it up in the corner, whether it's he's left or right foot.

I don't think he's overpriced either because you can't really set a price tag on 5* 5* as there are only seven players in the whole game who has it, and Neymar & him are the only wingers that has it.

Conclusion: You shouldn't replace Neymar with Ribery, because they are basically the same player, but if you can fit these two guys in to a team together: you are gonna dominate EVERY game on the wing side.

Expensive but worth it

He's for sure expensive but I can tell you that if you have the coins to the sbc and want him to play than do him. He is and feels like a high end player. Probably very similar with Neymar but if you like Ribery go for him.

Frank the Tank

Frank the Tank, what a player in his prime. Controversial yet amazing. The Robben-Ribery era was a big one and I had to do one of them. I did not complete the Robben SBC and regret that because this last weekend he slapped me with a long-range finesse. So when I saw Ribery's card I knew he might be an integral part of my RTG team. First thing off, his price. Ribery is around 900k on PS. This is a very large amount, especial...

Old But Gold? Franck Ribery Review

So Ribery in Fifa 21 only 81 overall with 74 pace so must be awful right? Well, you would be surprised. I traded to make a nice Serie A side with a BvB back 2 and GK so it was a very strong starting team. I moved Mkhitarian into CAM as I love that 5* weak foot and I was bitterly disappointed so I brought on Ribery and I got the shock of my life 3 Goals in 5 minutes. With his height and agility and for an early game playe...
