Player Review
84 - Halloween SBC
Okay, first of all, this is the first time writing a review and believe me when I say that this card is utterly broken.
I play him right now as a left striker beside Son with Martial and Dembele as wings.
I also only play in the Weekends league and do some trading since I don't have the time to play during the working days. I'm a Gold 1 player this year, last year I had a couple of good runs during the elite classes so I like to think that I'm a decent player.
The man Talisca gave me a very hard time in the beginning since I was stubborn enough to play him as a box-to-box player. I just did not see his body type being the ideal "attacking player" for my playing style of FIFA. I moved him from box-to-box to the CAM position instead and the improvements were much better. I managed to get some assists with him since his short- and long passing is phenomenal and his curve just adds the spiciness to it. However, one problem I had with this card was that he's not very linkable since I have some untradables (Mukiele, Varane & Martial) and wanted to keep all of them while using SON, but he needed to get down on 8 chem with the right coach. However, after getting some new players and got what I think is a decent team (Se link) I forgot to change the tactics and while playing Talisca got swapped to my lonely striker in a 4-2-3-1 formation. Wow! What a surprise! This guy is outstanding, he's fast, not Mbappe fast, but rapid as hell. His body type keeps defenders off and most importantly has the ability to stop, shield the ball, and accelerate to give him a good position for firing his canons. But the best thing with him is his runnings. It seems like they're always on point, he's always on the right place in the right time and that's his biggest trait.
This guy is 4* 4* and I'm one of those who gets nervous when a player gets the ball on the wrong foot despite different traits. This guy made me get rid of that feeling. His right foot is just as good as his left and let me tell you guys, none of them is a joke. Pressed low ball, curve outside the box, chippys, weird angels, high power shots everything is possible with his feets. It's just marvellous. I've never felt this love that I have for him for any other player.
- Pace is really good.
- His shooting is just outstanding, like Lewa and C.R, not exaggerating.
- His passing is perfect for the pass and run, and longer passing when you want to change the side of the field the ball is on!
- Body type, shield and protects the ball with HIS LIFE!
- Has those spunky tall legs, makes it really hard for opponents CDM to steal the ball.
- Excellent free-kick taker, 4 goals as free-kick, possibly more but can't remember them all.
- Stamina is an issue when the games goes to overtime
- Not a great header for some reason for me, i've conceded against his headers, but never scored one.
- I've seen other people going crazy with his dribblings, I haven't really.
- Worthless tackles will miss the ball 100% if he slides
