Player Review
93 - Rare
Having used Messi this WL and a current DIV 2 player, I have had the pleasure of using this magician for about 50 games or so and contributed to 77 goals and 47 assists. The thing that stands out as soon you touch the ball is his absolute control of the ball. He glides without effort and he is able to turn in whatever direction you please in an instant. Next, has to be his amazing shooting and passing which are near perfect and the best I have used so far especially when paired with 5 star like WF. His pace is good not great (even with a hunter), but with his dribbling, it makes up for the missing sprint speed. For the most part he is a near-perfect player until you get to his physicals... His stamina is an issue, you want to be able to run the whole game and use his abilities all game, but that is not possible, I found myself looking down at his stamina bar way too often. Next, is his strength and this is another issue because in this game it plays a way bigger role than it did FIFA 20 and more often than not, if he fighting for the ball against a more physical player he will lose it. All in all, I feel that he an amazing player with outstanding stats, but his physical stats may be an issue for some and for that I feel that he better than most players, but falls short of the elite that the game currently has to offer (cr7,mbappe,neymar,cruyff,pele...etc). For him to be 5/5 player he simply needs better stamina and slightly better strength.
