Player Review

It was a hot day, when I decided to play some fifa. I directly did the 85+ pp and the best one was... De Gea. I was very dissatisfied, and moved on to the 81+ pp. I thought, if i get a walkout I'll do some more, but if I don't, they're not worth it. I opened the pp and... Well, I just couldn't speak for a few seconds. I saw one of my favourite football players, Phil Foden. I was soooo happy, he went straight in my team.

I used him in this formation (4-3-1-2), on CAM:

Neuer(tots),Roussillon(fb)-Zagdou(sd)-Kimpembe(tots)-Sambia(fb),Mount(tots)-Andre(tots)-Ndombele(tots),FODEN(fof),Son(tots)-Aguero(eoe)

The first thing that I noticed was his typical dribble. Before I packed him I used Messi gold on CAM, and I loved his dribble. I was a bit afraid that Foden would dissapoint me, but no, he didn't. His dribble is better than Messi's dribble. When dribbeling, you don't feel like dribbeling with a player with the ball, but you feel like dribbeling with the ball itself. Foden turns rapid, doesn't feel sloppy and reacts very fast. The only con I can think of is his composure, but it's not a big problem.

His pace (sorry for not reviewing in the normal order) is very good. I played him at striker 45 minutes, and that was enough to tell you it's just stunning. Every run is well timed, and blizzering fast. Because I used him CAM the rest of the time, I didn't experience his fantastic pace very often, but running trough defences is an easy job for Phil.

Passing, WOW, just WOW. I thought it would be average, but it is simply breathtaking. He is the best passer in my team, and never misses important passes. It doesn't matter which foot, outside or inside, he will serve your forwards with pleasure. It is just an enjoy to watch.

Shooting. In one word: STUNNING! But what do you expect from 99 positioning, 99 finishing, 99 shot power and 95 long shots with a hawk chemstyle? He scored goals from impossible angles and is able to finish with both his feet. I tried some longshots, and they felt very good, keep in mind I used hawk on him to boost them. It would have been nicer if he had the finesse shot trait, but I won't complain about that, because everything else is out of the world.

Defending. Yeah, this card is very complete, however, not Gullit gang. I love the fact he can intercept passes high up the pitch, or tackle a player in a decent way. If you want to, you can play him as a B2B or second CDM with shadow/anchor but I don't recommend it.

Physical. This surprized me. Foden is only 171 cm tall, but the 92 agression makes him a lot better. 70 strenght is not bad, but could be higher. With hawk especially, he doesn't feel weak at all. And jup, that 99 stamina is VERY helpful. He runs down the pitch like a horse the whole match.

I'm very thankful that EA gave me this card. I can say that my packluck has been incredible this year, especially because I played WL only 5 times seriously and most of the time just play division rivals. I'm in division 2/3 and If I want, I can reach Gold 1 in the WL. (Most of the time I don't finish it, because I don't want to spill all these hours playing sweaty games.) What I try to do is just enjoying the game and having fun. I loved to play with him, and I will continue that for the next months.

If you have the money and need a CAM? Buy him NOW. England will probably win a lot of games, so yeah, it's almost certain he will get an upgrade, and with that, increase in price.

This was my first review ever. I hoped u enjoyed it, have a very good day, and above all, enjoy the european championship!
