Best Defensive Midfielder I've Used

By hallidayNUFC, 06-05-2021

I've been looking for a solid defensive midfielder who can play a bit for ages. I've used Kante since day one really, I've tried Kimmich, Gundogan, Wijnaldum, Fer amongst many more but I always went back to Kante because of his balance and agility when jockeying. Kante just always seemed to be where you wanted him but I always found he was quite poor on the ball which is why i've been looking for someone else. I done the objective and picked up Rodri and honestly, he is exactly what i've been looking for. Quick, strong, great on the ball, his tackling is mental, so well timed and powerful. Usually leaves the opponents players decked, positionally really sound and has that overpowered jockeying ability that Kante does. A genuine superstar. Do the objective, you wont regret it.

His 6'3 frame is such a bonus to a similar play style. I keep my CDM on drop between defenders and Rodri does an amazing job of pushing up and staying back at the right times. With his pace and ...

So here goes, my first review! This guy... I completed him today and started playing with him... He is very, very good! I do not have the strongest PL squad, but this guy definitely improved the entire defensive line. I don't know where to start...I'll go from stat to stat, starting with PACE. His pace is see...

Despite having a full Serie A squad I decided to grind Rodri as I am a city fan. I didn't start him in any game but brought him on as a sub every game.He has very good pace and his passing is outstanding. Considering his height and body type he very good with the ball. As he's 6'3 the 78 jumping wasn't really noticeable. He is a beast at defending and has a very good reach as he's tall.He also has g...
