Player Review

For several weeks I was looking for alternatives for the Right Wing position in my Real Madrid thematic squad, as close to the goal as possible; I tried with Raúl Moments, Benzema TOTS, Puskas, but there was always something that did not convince me.

That's when I came up with a way to put Figo on the team; studying his letter it seemed that it would only be "one more letter to try", but it was already clear to me that this is the one.

Although, Figo is not a goal card due to his body type, his double 4-star combo, and some of his statistics, he is a very compliant natural winger and his in-game performance will surprise you. .

Just like in real life, when you saw the best Figo, he appeared to be a rough, robust, slow player ... But once he is in the race, or he catches the ball he is a solid and mainly explosive player.

PACE

His explosive strength is based on his acceleration, his, well his in long spaces is enough, in short spaces he is lethal to detach from the rival.

DRIBBLING

Figo has a couple of traits that are very useful for his position; Stylish Player and Technical Dribbler, personally I use a lot of dribbles on the wings (Berva-Spin, Croqueta, Cancels, Heel 2 Heel, etc.) And I think that his animation is not the fastest in the game, if we compare it with Hazard RTTF, but for a natural extreme they are enough, without more.

If you use a lot of contextual agile dribbling to stick to the baseline and then give an assist, Figo is ideal for you.

His statistics are misleading, because he has always controlled perfectly and he usually makes his dribbles successfully 95% of the times that he requires it.

The part that is most difficult for him is maintaining his balance after a strong crash (although his strength helps him) and defining precisely in high pressure situations, due to his low composure.

I don't think that putting a Motor chemistry style on it is so necessary in this case, but it could be if my formation was a 4-4-2 and I needed me to attend more than it defines.

SHOOTING

You will always find Figo well positioned and ready to stand out and be incisive, regularly scoring 10 chances, Figo will score 8 or 9, because with a Halcón chemistry style, you have the shooting power and the necessary definition not to fail, plus the outdoor shooting trait helps him a lot.

Likewise, if he receives a cross, generally it will be a goal, either from a volley or a header (a point that I will deal with later).

Perhaps what I have used the least is his long shot, which promises to be very powerful, as he has statistics and traits that help him a lot, as well as his free kicks, although to be honest, I have not had so many occasions to give a verdict.

The only mechanic that I have not found perfect in this section is that he does not have the shooting feature in place, because I like to cut in and finish this way. It has not failed me, but it does not give me confidence to make this shot, so I prefer to try to define with the left foot or with the outside.

DEFENDING

He is aggressive, but do not expect him to go down a lot to help the team, since his role is based on the offensive game.

His header is accurate.

PASSING

Figo has a unique ability to get the best possible crosses into the game, which is why he is an excellent assister, and he also has enough vision to find his teammates.

He has given a lot of assists from corners and free throws, so I am delighted with this section.

Although he does not have the Game Build trait, I recommend that you also try him as an CAM, as he has everything you need to play and make your team play.

PHYSICAL

He doesn't have the highest stamina in the game, but he can play hard for at least 90 minutes.

His strength helps her a lot in conjunction with his bodytipe to resist attacks from rivals and retain the ball.

He doesn't have the best jump in the game, but he can win some clearance from the goalkeeper, although I haven't finished with him headlong in a situation where he needs to jump.
