Player Review
90 - Icon
I packed Garrincha with my first base icon pack. Great player in the first games but after a while the player that costs 1.6 mil did not do his job like he used to. I played him with the chemastrystile hawk. it seemed logical to me because i wanted to give him some extra strenght. Now i know i should just have givven him a hunter card and it would be fine! Didn't i know it would make such a diffirence! It was like the world turned upside down. With the hunter card garrincha was reborn and i was happy again because i could use my 1.6 mil player again.
I play a lot of frienlies so don't mind the games that ive played with him. If i calculate is all, it would be around 300 games.
Pace - He is very fast. Put a Hunter card on him and he is gone. I played him at striker and he just outran everyone.
Att positioning - He is always ready to go. I like to send my players forward and just pass the ball past the defenders. He knows where he needs to stand to pass to.
Passing - His passes are amazing. I like a striker that can also pass, so he fits perfectly for me. He has a lot of vision and you notice that. The crosses are great, the long passes are good and the short passes are amazing.
Dribbling - Of all his statts, his dribbling is the best. I'm not a very good skiller, so his 5 starr skillmoves are a bit wasted on me but even without skillmoves can he provide you with amazing dribbling skills. Left stick only and he's amazing
Shooting - He plays with hunter in my team. After everyone said that he would be SO good ad finishing everything you might expect to much. He does not finish everything and he does not have much shot power either. If youre a long range shooter, Garrincha might not be the player for you. With his 78 Long shots he doesnt come close with my Kulusevski (94) and Bergwijn (91). I like my longshots but he is just not the one to do those with.
Workrate - His workrate is medium/low, this isn't something that makes such a diffirence for me but it is a minor point.
Strenght - With his 64 strenght you shouldn't go up against any strong defender. And with stron i mean any defender with 80 or more physical.
