94 - TOTS
Dias managed to annoy even me, by how easy he makes tackles look, Mbappe run slow, and Neymar a mere silly clown for skill moves. Anybody he faced, he made tremble outside and inside the box. Unlike many, I find his strength in his compensation for two CBs in place of one. If you have Dias, his defensive positioning is so well that you can make do with a secondary cheap CB like Gomez, or finally use a slower CB that might be your idol. His true strength however, is the psychological pressure he puts on the opponent while boosting yours big time. Ever since PL TOTS came out, this guy haunted me, to the point of replacing PIM Desailly. His stature scares opponent so much, you will encounter unrealistic long shots of desperation as they just cannot enter the box. This is not an exaggeration. Recall the pain of having Neymar dribbling at you with the ball stuck to his cleats? this guy is an unbinding agent. He separates the ball from your opponents attacker like filleting a salmon clean. The cherry on the cake is his 99 stamina, meaning your opponents go through this for 12 minutes of their lives.
