Hey everyone! I know you probably won't want to read thru a whole wall of text, so I'll keep this short and sweet. If you have zero time, just read the Pros and Cons

He's OP! I used the Finisher chem on him - 90 pace is enough for me, and I wanted to boost his shooting and, most importantly, max out his dribbling. Depending on your style of play you can try Hunter or even Deadeye.

1. He's the kind of player who can dribble the length of the pitch for you, and he's the perfect player for Fast Build Up, Counter Attack FIFA. An easy 10/10.
2. His passing is more than good enough for RW, LW, LM, LAM, RM, RAM, CAM, CF or ST (basically anywhere lol), can do the odd through ball. I'd give 9/10.
3. His shooting is where opinion is divided - some people say he is very inconsistent, others say he is amazing. For me at least, he can finish pretty well. He obviously won't score from anywhere like CR7 but it's satisfactory enough for an 9/10.
4. 90 Pace is enough for me, although I know it won't be enough for you. 9/10 for me because he's fast enough to get past anyone, see below.

He is best compared to 96 Sancho, 94 Messi and 91 Ronaldinho (FIFA 20). I haven't used anyone similar to him this year, I think Messi came the closest but he's been unfortunately nerfed in 21.

And to conclude the review, I'm going to talk about something unique to Garrincha. I have never seen someone with the ingame dribbling style of Garrincha. It's amazing. I know some people think his physical is terrible and unusable, but I found that ingame he's really hard to knock off, even by all the meta CBs. You kinda have you use him to know what I mean.

Thanks for reading and hope this helped!

Hey guys,

So I'm using Garrincha in a 442 as my right ST.

I got to say he's insane.

First of all, the Lad has this lightening speed that make every defender look like Bartra against Bale.

He's so efficient in front of the goal he ain't missing anything on the right foot and he's also got a solid left. Even though he "only" has 86 curve he finesses everything top bin even from outside the box.

Now here is the most interesting part. This dude has the Jinga in him. He makes the pitch look like a dance floor. Every defender are at his feet and slide everywhere as I used to to in snow class.

The passing is very good, very well rounded. Special mention for his cross are lethal.

Who cares about defending, it's Garrincha.

Manuel has a good stamina and can be played for 120min, BUT he's weak as Valbuena so try to avoid contact with big guys like Virgil or Sergio.

I packed Garrincha with my first base icon pack. Great player in the first games but after a while the player that costs 1.6 mil did not do his job like he used to. I played him with the chemastrystile hawk. it seemed logical to me because i wanted to give him some extra strenght. Now i know i should just have givven him a hunter card and it would be fine! Didn't i know it would make such a diffirence! It was like the world turned upside down. With the hunter card garrincha was reborn and i was happy again because i could use my 1.6 mil player again.

I play a lot of frienlies so don't mind the games that ive played with him. If i calculate is all, it would be around 300 games.

I packed Garrincha out of the base icon swaps pack a couple a months ago. I've played him as striker ever since and he's been absolutely amazing. Garrincha's stats tell a story that isn't true, he plays much better than his stats seem to show, his shot is very precise and powerful, his passing is quite good and skilling with him is a dream. overall an insane and very fun player.
