90 - TOTS
4.0
Bulky Beast
By kayrovskyreviews, 16-05-2021

Lacroix is one of the best defenders I have used this year. He is a mixture of Flashback Boateng and Varane's pace. His 6"3' height and body type makes him appear very stocky and filling in the pitch, often allowing him to occupy large space in and out of the box. Although the lack of acceleration corresponding to his height might create issues from time to time, a shadow chemistry style compensates for this, simultaneously increasing his sprint speed for situations of get in behind strikers. His physical strength is great, his tackles are solid. However, I find his defensive positioning very unfamiliar to Dias, Varane, or Van Dijk. He is usually positioned as a left back would be if played at CB (unfortunate meta). All in all, Lacroix has the pace, the strength, and the very good defensive stats to handle most attackers, however TOTY Mbappe, CR7 or Stupendously meta sticky-dribbling attackers tend to push his limits, and out-do him.

Card looks better than he is

I was lucky enough to get his card in my red picks and was excited to use him with Tapsoba but he wasn't as good as I expected him to be he wasn't as quick as his card said he was (but he was still decently quick). He is a good height to win headers and win slide tackles but his positioning lets him down. Sometimes he is in a very good position to intercept the pass or to tackle the player bu...
