93 - TOTS
I opened my RANK 1 DIV RIVALS PACK TODAY, I see blue, I expect its going to be a troll, I see the french flag pop up, I see ST, then I see Monaco as I stand there wide eyed with a TOTS Ben Yedder standing in front of me. I am ecstatic to have pulled such a big card and instantly put him into my lineup linking him with TOTS Matuidi and IF Dembele in an in game 3-5-2 formation as ST. I start him in my squad in a DIV 2 game and instantly pass to him to see how well he feels on the ball, he feels okay, nothing special, I then attempt dribbling with him, again its fine, but nothing special. After a few minutes of play, Ben Yedder plays a beautiful cross to my Ansu Fati and he easily slots it home. Towards the end of the game, we are winning comfortably and we manage to find Ben Yedder on a 1on1 with a through ball, I trigger the finesse, with 1 1/2 bar of power and he manages to sky it, almost as if his weak foot was inexistent. After a few games with him, I managed to score 0 goals despite scoring 5+ with my team each game, however his passes were always near perfect and he barely ever missed one.
Pace - Very Fast, Loses to the odd Bamba/Walker/James
Passing - Inch perfect passing, beautiful playmaking and surprises you with the goal scoring opportunities he creates
Dribbling - His high composure, stamina, dribbling, balance, and height make for a very good dribbler, works excellently as a CAM as he can hold the ball effectively and make amazing passes
Shooting - For having such amazing Stats, Ben Yedder did not score once in 5 games and missed a few crucial chances, his shots would often hit post or go wide despite low power
Weak Foot - Ben Yedder's 5 star weak foot seems virtually non existent, he hasn't hit one good shot with his weaker foot and always manages to do the worst animations in shooting positions
Strength - Ben Yedder is a very weak forward in general, in 1on1s vs strong defenders he is almost always shrugged off and easily disposed of.
