86 - FUT Freeze SBC
For a bit of reference I'm a div 3/4, gold 2/3 player. I initially lined up Benzema (90) and Griezmann (87) up front, with Felix (84) playing off them, but now Gaya replaced Benzema, while Benzema replaced Felix.
Gaya was awful with the basic card (5 games, 1 goal), then I tried the marksman card and he started to impress (6 games, 8 goals, 5 assists). If you don't mind sacrificing a speed buff then definitely slap a marksman on him, otherwise I'd suggest hawk. The added strength is very important because he otherwise feels very light on the ball.
I generally have no qualms with the 3 star weak foot, with high enough finishing it's not noticeable. It's almost like having two Griezmanns upfront. His general goal threat and dribbling make him a prime candidate to pull the opposition out of position and lay off another forward.
I got him for a bit over 50,000 before the price hike, but I still think he's worth it at 66,000. I do not miss Felix.
With marksman
- can easily squeeze through defenders (I'm looking at you Varane) when receiving through balls and unleash deadly volleys (don't let the 80 put you off)
- high dribbling stats and 86 strength means you can rely on him during the odd situation where he has to hold up play
- stamina is great, I reckon he could play 120 mins adequately (as a striker)
- seems to almost always be available while looking for space in the opposition box, and is very clinical in front of goal
With marksman
- his height! he's got a bit of jumping and heading accuracy, but I haven't been able to get a single header with him on the receiving end...
When i first got this card, he looked fresh in my team so I thought, hey, let me try him out. I played him in a 4-2-3-1 in ST with Felix at CAM, oya at LAM and rashford at RAM and let me tell you, this guy did not disappoint. He feels really light on his feet and he has a nice accelerating first touch ( similar to vardy but with better dribbling). He shoots well and his attacking AI places him in nice positions ( especially with the get in behind instruction). His passing is decent and his transitioning is fast with great stamina. Played 11 games with him in rivals div 4 and he scored 11 goals while providing 8 assists. Overall I think this is a fun card that adds a little diversity to your team.
Fast ( even without Hunter)
Has shooting that surprises you opponents ( currently using Hawk)
Great stamina
Vardy-like dribbling but feels more smooth
Adds color to your starting 11
HEIGHT ( makes him feel weaker )
WEAK FOOT( not really a problem for me, shooting is so broken on this game that you don't really feel it)
HEADING
Ok, so i haven't used him much but i guaranty you wont regret doing this card. I think he already ha 10 matches, 12 goals 8 assists. He can play CAM and Striker, whichever he is really good at. I use Marksman because the pace is still decent and it adds shot, dribbling and physicality.
- Dribbling (very agile, good on the touch)
- Shot (good finesse on his left, can score as well as anyone else in my team- apart from Inaki)
- Physicality is decent, isn't bounced of the ball every second like a lot of other strikers i have used
- Value for money is extremely good
- passing is good, nothing much to say
- 3 star week foot is use able but annoying sometimes
- pace is meh, with hunter is better but normal pace is only ok for a striker
Here we go, another freeze SBC. a lot of people will look at this card and think "oh wow, looks ok but should have been adama" while im thinking "this card is insane" he is like baby butra for 60k
i would reccomend anyone with a laliga team to do this sbc and try him out for a couple of games
Shooting (will never miss inside the box)
Pace (Fast, but not Mbappe either)
Drbbling
Slippery like Adama
Meta height
86 Strength with a marksman
Passing
Difficult to run away from players like Varane and Joe gomez
Composure (very minor problem, very rarely notice it)
3* WF (Feels like 4*)
So here we go, my first review EVER, first of all, i wanna apologize if I make any mistakes in the English words, since I am portuguese,
So i did this gaya card cuz hes stats are kinda "weird" (but in a good way) and when i saw the requirements of the Sbc i didn´t think twice.
i use him with 86 if ben yedder (packed him) and i almost didn't notice the difference between the two, hes agility doesn't seem like 86, he is very "light" with the ball, to help that stat hes 96 Positioning makes him perfect to creat any space in every defence i already overcame defenses with varane mendy gomez etc.
I advise you to choose Hunter, to up his pace to 98, to feels like mbappe, and his shooting to 91, upgrading even more the positionig, Finishing and Shot Power.
- Pace
- Shooting
- agility
- positionig
- stamina
- links
- good offensive stats
- defense ( doesn´t matter)
- physical (Jumping,Strength and Aggression)
- like i said in physical, if a big centre back catch him, there´s not to much to do
