Best Cheap Center Back In The Game!
By Machima13, 08-11-2020

I bought this card at the start of the game with the mindset of, 'he looks decent, he'll do for now', but wow, I was wrong. He has been remarkable, I've mostly played him with Diego Carlos which has been a great partnership. I would highly recommend, he is very all-rounded for a center-back, if you like to play out from the back, this guy is the perfect option. I will now break down his stats.


Pace:


67 pace is clearly not quite enough for a center-back, however, with an anchor or a shadow, you have plenty. He isn't the quickest, but he really makes up for it with the rest of his stats.


Shooting:


Its not good, but you can't expect a center back to finish everything. Some center-backs are still a threat from set-pieces but this doesn't really apply to Gimenez.


Passing:


Excellent, how this guy has 53 passing I will never know. You can always rely on him to hit the ball forward to your striker with accuracy, it's extremely helpful having defenders with good passing because it reduces the chances of conceding mistakes at the back.


Dribbling:


I mean you don't want to be going past players with your center-backs, otherwise I'm afraid your playing the game wrong. It's okay for a center-back, I guess.


Defending:


OUSTANDING, every tackle, every block, every interception. There's no need to worry about pace because the ball rarely gets into your third if Gimenez has anything to say about it. The best tackler I have used so far by a country mile.


Physicality:


I wouldn't say it's as good as other defenders, however he certainly won't get bullied by strong, tall forwards.

Cheap Varane?

Hello! At first when I saw this card I wasn’t so convinced because I thought he wouldn’t be good. But then after a few days his price started going down and I decide to buy him as his price is almost as Ramos. He is really good and with a shadow he reaches almost everyone. He has prefect links with Valverde and Llorente, and the both have special cards, so if you have the three they are an unstoppable trio.

GIMENEZ THE GOAT

So short review here since i didnt see any other reviews on him. Gimenez is actually insane. His pace feels like a striker in my opinion and he feels a bit similar to tots Lacroix, (in terms of speed) When we get to his defensive stats, with a shadow he does AMAZING, especially since he is 6'1 he bodies pretty much anyone with that 94 aggression and 97 strength. The only...

The new Piqué Scream?

Have you ever tried Pique Scream on Fifa 20? Well, I'm presenting you his brother. Before starting, it should be said that it's tradable, so I 100% recommend you to give him a try if you have the coins, but, you should wait, as his price will keep going down a few days. I tried him in my weekend league, and for his price, I would recommend him, he will defend everything, and he has the pace to stop pacy oponents stri...
