86 - ShowDown SBC
I used Kehrer for 20 games this week since he came out and I can safely say he is one of the best value SBC cards we have had all year even without an upgrade. I used an anchor chemistry style for the first 10 games to boost the 80 base strength up to 90 while giving him 89 pace, balanced evenly between acceleration and sprint speed, and really solid defensive stats. In these first 10 games he had very favorable matchups against many top cards, most notably 2 games against base Cruyff where he completely shut down any attempted through balls towards him. He also scored a chip shot goal from a counter, leaving me a little confused at how he ended up making the run from Cb to in behind however nothing similar has happened since. The next 10 games I used a shadow and the extra boost to pace and defense definitely ensured counter attacks where less effective however the 80 base strength caused the occasional player to shrug him off. With either chemistry style he was one of the best defenders I have used all year and at a price of just 180k he is a steal as I could easily see the card reaching 400k on the market even without the upgrade. With the 5 star weak foot he can be used either side of a defensive pair without any detriment to his passing ability. He also provides great links between the Ligue 1 and any of the good German players released recently. If this card fits your team it is a must do SBC in my opinion and if the upgrade comes through it will be even better.
