Decent versatile - but not top tier defender

By jackamouk, 05-04-2021

I'm Div 2/Gold 2 played bout 50 games with Sambia as a RB in a 4-1-2-1-2 and RCB in a 3-5-2.

I brought him in to replace Tavernier Headliners (who I absolutely love) but I needed a change for chem. He's not on the level of Tavernier in my opinion. He's quick and strong, decent enough on the ball and good in the air, but his positioning and reactions in defensive situations are not ideal, maybe it's the workrates but he just seems to stand still a little too often and not sense the danger.

Verdict: 7.5/10 - solid RB, decent CB - not top tier. Might be decent in midfield but I have Renato, Atal and Cucurella in those spots and they're far superior. I like the card but am looking to find a better replacement ASAP.

Very unique, very solid

Ligue 1 was in dire need of a good RB; level 30 de sciglio was a great card, but it is gonna take something insane to get most people playing to level 30; and de sciglio is just not it. This sambia card dropped and immediately caught my eye, especially for a day one price of 120k. I needed a RB to strong link lees melou, who i wanted to put back in my team, and sambia fit the system perfectly. He can play CDM, CB, FULLBACK ...

Very good upgrade for Golowin Freeze

Hello everyoneYesterday I packed Sambia. I've been using Golowin Freeze since around Christmas and was always satisfied with him. But this card is another level comparing to Golowin. I left out James for the comparisons. I used thi...
