Busquets, the Pivot for Barca's golden generation

By Jaxdog, 15-03-2021

For the past ten years Sergio Busquets has been the crucial pivot in Barcelona's golden generation, and after EA finally released a good SBC with this 80 pace Busquets, it was a card that i thought I must complete immediately. Although I wasn't disappointed with the card, it didn't blow me away by any means. With a shadow Busquets boasts a clean 90 pace and 95 defending, including a magnificent 99 interceptions and 95 defensive awareness, which are, for me, the most prominent stats on the card. He read the game very well, and as the stats implied, it really was his defensive awareness and interceptions that set Busquets apart from your average Joe.

Really if I was to compare this card to someone else, it would be the recent Jefferson Lerma card, who also has a taller frame, and similar pace, but due to both players stocky frames, they both struggle in a long chase, but can get towards an attacker to block their run very well. and that's my next grievance with Busquets, his frame, with a High & Average+ body type and a 6'2 frame, he struggles in a dribbling sense, even with the improved stats in dribbling, and it lying at an impressive 86 dribbling, on paper it should be a lot better then it is.

Realistically, this Busquets card is one that doesn't fit what is deemed the meta in FIFA 21, but if you play roaming fullbacks, and want someone who can ping a ball across to them with 86 long passing and 87 vision, he hits your wide players very well, creating lots of space quickly, with a direct long ball.

Personally, if I could undo it, I wouldn't have done this card, if I'm thinking FIFA 21 Meta, he doesn't fit at all, but as a fun, nostalgic card that can become a passing pivot in the midfield, i have absolutely no regrets, and that's my exact thinking for anyone that wants to complete this card, yes he's a fun, nostalgic card, but if you really want to get up to that next rank in FUT champs, then maybe this isn't the guy for you

Passing is immaculate, can only remember two poor passes.

Reads the game like a book

Popped up for a couple goals

great through balls

Still carries some of the base cards stats, so feels slower then he should

at times can get bodied off the ball

Is a bit clunky on the ball, but not horrible as a CDM/defensive CM

realistically, Kante or even Frenkie De Jong is better

Sergio Busquets Player Moments Review!

INTRO: Hi guys and welcome to this review on Sergio Busquets's player moments card. Im a Barca fan btw and I was very suprised when I saw this card on the SBC menu. I was really fast completing this card since there aren't really any usable Sergio Busquets cards over the past few years on FIFA. He was fitting in the first team so I could just try his card out without changing anything.

MOMENTS BUSQUETS REVIEW IN DIV 1!!!

Very good on and off the ball, not really stiff and always in good positions. Executes passes very well in any situation as he has very good short, long passing and vision, which is complemented with his 95 composure. His physicality is excellent as he lasts the whole game and is very strong and tall, and his pace is very good for a cdm/cm especially with a shadow. Even though his shooting is not the best, he still gets int...

BEST CDM OF THE GAME

absolutely perfect ! Thanks to Busquets, I made 30 FUT Champion victories. He is very fast (his rating on the card is wrong !!!!), very physical and he has a monstrous strike. I even played him attacking to take advantage of his efficient header.
