Player Review
88 - IF
So, here we are. New FIFA, new cards, first review!
I decided to buy Luis Suarez as a half investment (with him only being 100k, very good in game *spoiler* and not a huge supply of him) and half to use with my Carrasco and Partey.
I played him as a ST in a 4-2-3-1 and with a hunter.
Pace - 6
Obviously, he isn't as fast as my IF Vardy but does know how to get around the pitch. He isn't going to break defensive lines for you and I would recommend using him as a touch and go player anywhere further than 25 yards from goal.
Shooting - 10
Suarez finishes EVERYTHING. Right or left foot. He can finesse extremely well, but his real use comes from his power shots, far or near. Get in the box with Suarez? It's a goal. *insert Mbappe crying celebration*
Passing - 9
Not going to dwell here for too long. His short passes are consistent and he's very capable of through balls on the ground or lofted.
Dribbling - 7.5
With only 72 pace and 3* skills, dribbling isn't easy to use with Suarez. However, on the ball, he feels very nimble with his sharp turns and great ball control. Side note, RB/R1 fakeshots are very good with Suarez to break through gaps inside the box due to the high acceleration boost and his good ball control.
Defending - 2
So you want to use him as a CDM? My advice... Uninstall
Physical - 8
His jumping is okay, nothing great, which is a shame considering his good heading accuracy. His stamina is also on the lower side. However, considering he's a slower player (meaning you're less likely to be sprinting around with him) he seems to be able to last slightly longer than others. Personally I sub him off for IF Vardy in the 60th minute, which is why his record isn't as high as other players. His strength is very good. Obviously when a Tomori comes steaming in, he doesn't always keep it, but I reckon when it comes to on the ball duels, he manages to keep it 7/10 times.
Misc - 8
High (att) - Med (def) is almost perfect for me, but this of course is opinion based. His 6'0" height is okay, not too tall where he becomes clunky, but not too small where he can't challenge in the air. However the 3* skills kills it for him. Combined with his 72 pace, it really forces you to use him as a touch and go player until you reach shooting distance. He's only really capable of doing the odd RB/R1 fakeshot or body faint to beat one man inside the box.
For 100k, definitely pick him up. I easily see him going to 150-200k+ over the next week or two making him a worthy investment. However if you just want to him simply to use, then he's definitely still worth it!
