Player Review
93 - Player Moments SBC
Everytime I see Gotze i just think of the 99 ball control meme that time a few years back, and of course the WC winning goal.
So his card actually has 99 ball control this time, and his dribbling is amazing, noticeably high 90's and feels it in game. I've done a few SBC's and used some TOTS players recently where their stats are fake and perform shocking to what the card should be. Gotze lives up to his stats, pace, dribbling, passing, shooting and even his physical are all top tier! Which is so good, since I had to take some players out of my team to fit him in. I've got him as a ST in a 4-3-1-2 with TOTY Lewandowski here (https://www.futbin.com/21/squad/8818441) and i feel that is his best position. I tried him as a CAM and as a RW/LW but ST is where he scores and assists most for me.
One thing you will notice with him is how good he is at getting in front of defenders, his short body, strength and extremely fast acceleration allows him to get onto through balls with ease. 5 star skills and 4 star WF are really good too. I have seen other reviews being sceptical about his shooting and WF but for me they were great, think he is a 'your mileage may vary' kind of card. Being in the Eridivesie was harder to link, but i had some germans and an icon german for links, probably not the easiest to get in. Random but his defending (interceptions and awareness) are very good for a ST and he has got some great tackles in for me
Overall he's a well rounded ST that has all the stats in the right places, it's just about fitting him into your team if you can with all the rocking cards out at the moment
Finesse shot
Attacking positioning/runs
Dribbling in general
Passing
5* Skills/4* WF
Heading is bad
Stamina is good but around 80-85 sometimes loses out
