Player Review
85 - Rare
I like to review cards, especially this early in the year. Having completed my first WL with him, why not offer a.. proper review.
Defending - His tackling is incredible, he intercepts well and he is actually a pleasure to play with in this regard. Some stupid bounces still went against him but overall good showing.
Pace - Now he isn't rapid. But as long as you dont over commit with his is pace is passable even with a neutral high line.~
Physical - Not sure why other reviews bash on his physicality. I have no issues with his strength or jumping. He isn't stand out, but he is far from bad. Very solid player.
Passing - His passing range from CB is great, he can switch to wide players. play short to CM it long to ST. Adds an option if you need it.
Dribbling - As a CB all you need is decent enough dribbling not to cause problems. He has this, don't go on mazy runs obviously that won't work.
Discipline - I foul.. alot, my tacle timing is bad but this card.. covers for it, only one yellow card in 63 games in division 3/2 and WL is great!
Goal contributions - As my 'strongest' CB I expect a few goals. Maybe one every 15 games. 1 in over 60 games is disappointing. Maybe his height is the issue? speaking of..
Height - Not sure what to say, he doesn't feel big and can feel quite small at times in defence, even against not particularly big players. Not an issue now but as things progress.. I'm sure it will be.
Price - He is probably a little overpriced for what he is. But with his club/ league and nation combo.. its not surprising is it?
