89 - TOTS

5.0

Absolute Mad Man

By Rorsco, 01-05-2021

Well, I'm not quite sure where to start. I'm a Div 1 2000-2100 skill rating (gold 1 level if I play all my games)

I got this guy with Ndombele in my picks and didn't think much of his card to begin with, however I played him at CAM in the 41212(2) on stay forward, get into box for cross, for my Prom tots Champs and now he has 10 goals 3 assists in 5 champs games with 2 <45min rage quits (so could have had more). This guy currently has gotten me 5-0 and is outscoring my Toty lewandowski and potm messi who are playing ST ahead of him.

Pace - His pace is exactly as you would expect, outpaces most CB's (obviously less so against fullbacks at cb with 95+ pace) but he is very fast off the mark meaning the defenders have to catch him as opposed to stay with him.

Shooting - inside the box he finished everything on both feet, as for outside I haven't really tested his weaker (3*) left foot but on his right he can burry a finesse shot from the top of the box. No real complaints there.

Passing - Nothing noticeable here really, haven't noticed him making any passing mistakes, but not one of those players whose passes leaver you speechless.

Dribbling - Now this is why this card is so good. He is one of those cards that is just hard to get the ball off, a 'Sticky' player of you like, he keeps the ball close to him with very smooth skill moves and doesn't seem to fall over when tackled as some players often do.

Defending - Playing CAM this hasn't been noticed too much, but he does the job for a cam at causing the CDM and defence some issues when out under pressure.

Physicality - Surprisingly good given his stats, never falls over when tackled really. However, obviously he isn't going to be outmuscling the likes of Ferdinand, van disk, Adama, etc. but he puts up a fight which can cause a player to panic in defence.

Overall- would highly recommened giving him a go if you are on the edge about him, as I expect you are if you are reading this.

Dribbling is Cracked - Ball almost sticks to him.

Pace running at and in behind the line

Shooting inside the box

Right foot shots outside the box

Aggression - struggles a little bit winning the ball back straight after losing the ball

Heading - struggles to out head defenders as expected, however if you get in behind he can easily outpace the CBs to get to an RB x cross before the CBs.

GET HIM RIGHT NOW

HOLY! I packed this guy out of my 83x10 and at first thought it was Ndombele, but quickly realized it was this guy. His stats look incredible. I played him in 3 positions, RWB, cam, and Cdm and he was insane in every position. Pace felt like 90. He is 5'10 but his pace was still amazing. Shooting was meh. He hit the post for me so many times but hit so many shots outside the box. Dribbling was great! I found it very easy to...

Mr. Incredible

What should I say..This Guy is very solid! He is sooo quick, don't know if I ever played a CDM as fast as him. I played him in a 4231 and 352 as a stay back next to Rooney.Holy Macaroni this guy is so solid, his body type is perfect for midfield, he rocks the ball back or makes runs into attack like no other player I've tested.I replaced FUT Birthday Paulinho with him and wo...

TREMENDOUSLY UNDERRATED

I play this guy as a left CM in a narrow 4-1-2-1-2 and oh wow. his dribbling on the ball and slickness in his movement is literally top tier. i played TOTY de bruyne in that position in FUT 20, so going from KDB to Nkunku has not felt like night and day, ofc you are limited with what this card can do, but in terms of defensively and dribbling wise Nkunku is a beast. if you have a bundesliga team he is an absolute must. I pl...
