Player Review
90 - What If
After packing him from an 81+ pick, I was hyped because I finally had a cb who could replace rijkaard mid. At first I played him as a left center back in 532 and to be honest I was expecting more from him. His acceleration was letting me down. Of course it wasnt really bad because he was with a shadow but he was still very slow. Then I tried him as a middle center back in 5212 and he was amazing. I got 25 wins that weekend and I was really hyped for my rewards. Unforunately my rewards weren't the best. He got the upgrade and these past couple of days I tried 352 because I got klostermann out of the party bag. His acceleration let me down again for the first couple of matches but it was also Cannavaro's fault. Something I didn't expect about this card was that he is scoring almost every corner. He is amazing with his head. If you have the coins and you need a solid center back that will get the job done, Smalling is your guy. His tackling is insane. I think it is even better than Cannavaro's. If I had to sum up Chris Smalling's What if card in just a couple words they would be: "Best CB for less than 1 million coins".
