Player Review
87 - What If SBC
About the Promo card: Raphinha is a beast in this FIFA his 81 rated card was god tier and his 84 a very amazing improval when I saw his 87 SBC I thought it was gonna be a ride. I checked his price and saw Half a million coins. EA Really thought it was a good idea to make an SBC so expensive. that you can literally get Mo Salah for 180k and it will be a lot of money left for you to make a very sweaty tryhardish team. My sincere saying? I love Brazilian players, I do. But even I realise when this is not worth. There are way better and cheaper options in the Premier league for you to pick out. yes he´ll definetely get a 89 but he´d still be less broken then Salah. Do him if you have the coins to spare or the players because I´m gonna tell you for 500.000 coins he has to give you a good in game return. I did his SBC almost for free since I had so many random players that don´t fit onto my Brazilian Squad so.
About the in game usabilty: I´ve only played 13 games with him not enough for me to give a complete review but I´ll give you guys what I learnt from using this card so far. And what you can expect from him later on. Raphinha is a 5'9" agile but non precise player, he´s very amazing at dribbling feels swift and quick on the ball but he´s very inconsistent with his finishings, Don´t try to finesse shot with him he´l miss it by a mile. the god tier of this card is the power of the shots and his positioning he´s always at the right places to give a good left foot power shot. his right foot feels ok. For 3* star WF he´s rather impressive. He battles a lot for the ball even tho he won´t win them most of the time due to his 70 strength. but the 91 stamina the 94 pace and the 91 positioning and agility he´s gonna be sweeping through player´s defenses. He´s good to play with and terrible to play against. I´d suggest a marksman chem style to boost his lack of strength and improve his 81 finishing while also increasing the dribling stats. But again. He´s very expensive and its always more cash money to get a similar player like Salah or even his 84 rated inform which is also very reliable at this stage of the game.
Pace: balanced with a 94 Accelerarion and 94 Sprint speed.
Dribbling: One of the main traits of this card.
Passing: He´d actually surprised me with his 87 crossing.
Shot Power: He´ll bury the GK in the net.
Stamina: He´s gonna be consistent through th match not getting tired so easily.
Strength; He´ll easily get pshed off the ball if that´s not improved.
81 finishing: Is not the best for a card like his.
Price: 500 thousand coins is a lot of money for a 87 rated.
