Player Review
87 - FUT Birthday
Me and a mate o' mine were talking about how we could improve our back line without spending too much. He was searching between the new FUT Birthday players and found the GEM that is Hermoso. We both bought him for approx 255K (ish) and boy oh boy. I had What If Smalling first, but he is just too expensive. I sold him and bought Hermoso and Berchiche. The back line I use is: What If Berchiche - Fut Bday Hermoso - Moments Puyol - What If Mbabu. I use a shadow on him, because everyone would do that. He loses the ball sometimes in a clumsy way, BUT 9/10 times he recovers it in a split second.
I recommend using him in either a 4 at the back formation or a 3 at the back, since he is very quick and turns like a good full back. (Turns better than 85 Theo Hernandez). If you're bold enough you might even use him as a CDM with an engine. I am a DIV 5 player since everyone uses the OP duo Mendy and Varane at the back and Mbappe at the front with Neymar, I won't get any further (for now). Hermoso will stop most players that are wobbling through your defense with skills and will use skills himself because of the 5* skills.
- Good acceleration and sprint speed
- Agile
- Passing
- Ball recovery
- 5* Skills
- Heading is a bit worse than it should be (nit picking)
- Sometimes a bit clumsy (but which defender isn't)
