90 - TOTS Obj
5.0
Better than a full back
By PapaThomas4, 29-05-2021

As much as I hate full backs at CB, I had to try it and see what the deal was and I fully understand why people do it. Having said that, I wanted to try out this card and see how it would compare. I paired Kimpembe with PIM Blanc and my oh my was I impressed.


His tackling is incredible, he always put a perfectly timed foot in. Whether I pressed tackle or held L2/LT, he won the challenge. His 96 pace, 93 strength and 97 aggression really shines in duels as he usually shrugs off the opponent running alongside him. I wasn't challenged by many aerial balls but he won those few headers with ease.


His 83 agility and 82 balance was where I thought he wouldn't be able to compete with the full back meta. But surprisingly, I didn't actually notice a difference as he felt very agile and quick on the turn. His actual on-ball dribbling was a tiny bit clunky but he' a 6'2" CB so it really doesn't matter - he was good enough on the ball for me.


As for his passing, he was amazing! I'm not the best at FIFA (particularly skill moves) so I rely on quick passing, through balls, and counter attacks. This card was CRUCIAL to so many of my goals. His ability to win the ball and quickly spread a lovely pass up the pitch made him one of the key players in my team. 92 short and 87 long passing looked really good in game.


As a whole, this Kimpembe card is fantastic. So good in fact, that he was actually one of the best rated players in my squad after each match (as a CB!). I can safely say that this card has replaced the RB I had at CB. You would have to be an absolute fool to turn down this free card. Try him out and enjoy! Cheers for reading fellas.

Got him in my red picks and was buzzing. Tried him in a few div rivals games and he stops most players. Barges cr7 out the way, much much better than varane.Very strong and fast so poggers

Got Him Red And He Is Great!

At 100k This 84 Kimpembe is a really good value card. He reminds me of a taller Kimpembe but brings better passing and physical, being a little bit slower it is important to pair him with someone a little quicker but i love this card. I got him in my red picks this week and i am really impressed. He is good on the ball and is very strong all good attributes to a cb this year.

THE MAESTRO (kimpembe)

When this card released, I knew straight away that I would complete it. I was looking for a French cb on a very tight budget so this card was perfect and went straight into my team. I played him in a 5212 formation with tots moments digne and what if mbabu as the wingbacks, future stars todibo as the central cb and tots kimpembe and showdown zagadou as the side cb's. Below is an a more in-dep...
