87 - FUT Future Stars
4.5
One of The Most Reliable Cards I've Used
By ExtremeBalotelli, 21-03-2021

Pedro G. has been one of the biggest surprises I've had in Ultimate Team in years. I know at this point his sbc has passed and you either have him or you don't but for those who have him, or have a possibility to do it again if EA brings his sbc back, I'd advise you to pay attention to this guy. While not being the tallest, or the fastest or the strongest, Pedro G. will always bring something to the game. I've played him mainly on two positions, RCM in a 5-3-2 and CM in 4-5-1, and let me say he's always surpassed my expectations. Here's the deal Pedro Gonçalves ain't one of those players to spam upfront waiting for him to be a deadly scorer, this guy is only perfect for two main roles. Either you play him as a regular center mid that has fast players around him or you play him as a defensive center mid (don't worry he can do everything defensively, sometimes he almost feels like Kante). What this card can bring for you is hard to describe, he is a small, rapid (not pacey), steady dribbling, engine essentially... and you basically insert him into your midfield. He'll be perfect playing as a mainly defensive minded midifelder and will always add when upfront. One of the major surprises of this card is how much he's capable of scoring in all situations. He's scored all types of goals for me, from skill filled runs into the area to amazing long shots. He's one of those players that the ball sticks to like it's glitched almost, oh and he's amazingly strong taking balls from attackers. He's a player to use when you feel like your midfield is just a bunch of uncoordinated gazelles and you need someone to organize it. There's an issue in linking him but I never played him at 10 chem anyway, he's been playing at 7-8 chem at a really high level of consistency.

Ball Control (Magnetic touch)

Passing (Incredibly realiable)

Shooting (Not insane but capable of any shot)

Defending

Luck (he's really fortunate both defending and attacking)


Links (still great at 7-8 chem)

Height (fights headers hard though)

Bruno Fernandes baby!!

First of all i'm not a top player his guy is literally a young version of Bruno Fernandes, I got him from the megapack in objetives so I gave him a try, my playing style works with a lot of passing so I tried Goncalves as CM, CDM and ST and it worked great in all of them, he has a great agility, passing and shooting (the longshot...

The Best Option

About the Promo Card: Sometimes I ask myself if these EA content developers know what balance is, Pedro Gonçalves is an one sided oportunity for those who can link him, I have 87 Cristiano Ronaldo so linking another portuguese in the position wasn´t difficult at all. The only thing I hate about this SBC is that you have no other option than to pick the RW because the CM card is not even equal to the RW wich should be the ...

Gonçalves Review

Hello, this is my first player review and I'm excited to get going, I got Goncky out of my Champs red picks on Thursday and he linked nicely with my Cruyff and Sanches (I also wanted to get Mbappe out my team) So I put him in at ST and so far he has been a beast. He is small and has brilliant dribbling, getting past players like Varane with ease. He is also very good on the counter and will get back if you need that....
