Player Review
86 - OTW
I have played over 100 games with Partey now and have tried every chemistry style.
Shadow is good, anchor is ok, engine is good. they are all average. Partey turns a bit like a tank with all of these on.
The thing you got to realise about Partey is you do not want him to go forward what so ever. You don't want him running back and you don't wanna have to sprint with him. You want to be infront of the player already because if your in front of him he's almost impossible to get past and the ball CAN stick to him like glue with the right chemistry style.
By far the best setting for him is DROP BETWEEN DEFENDERS. This way he doesn't get caught out and your always in front of the opposition. and the best chemistry style is GUARDIAN. the lack of speed doesn't matter because he's sitting right at the back anyway. The balance boost helps immensely and the ball control boost which you gain over the Engine is a massive difference. If someone walks into you then good bye. Partey always gets the ball and walks out the other side with it.
His lack of balance when you have a shadow makes turning and slowing down stupid. you don't wanna be running fast with him. you wanna sit in front of the player and just quick bursts of Sprint+Jockey . He's actually quite fast in this manner with a guardian.
He always has amazing passing. But be sure to be facing in the right direction. He's the only player I've seen do through balls from the back like all the way through the front of the pitch!
