89 - TOTY Honourable Ment
This guy is very good for the price. Tbh no idea why hes so cheap. Possibly the best value center back in the game besides Varane. You should do a comparison to rulebreaker Van Dijk (or regular Van Dijk) and look at the stats and the prices. It speaks for itself. Just finished my weekend league with him and this was my best finish ever. He replaced Joe Gomez NIF and it was definitely a big upgrade.
I used him with Varane and im not sure who’s better both are very good.
Defending stats - gets 99 in many stats with a shadow
Links - PSG and Brazil
Passing- 88 short passing is amazing for a CB
dribbling - good for a CB
jumping- kinda makes up for height
medium/high work rate
Height (not a significant issue from what i’ve noticed)
Pace could be a bit higher. It’s not bad though, still very usable. Only a few points behind the pacy center backs.
If you can fit him into your squad, he is a must-have, a duty. Since I have him, the whole dynamics of my defence improved as he conributes really so much to my stability. The q in his name stand for quality, you better believe me. Don't waste any more time reading this, just jump into the pros and then, buy him.
- way stronger that you'd expect him to be
- feels super agile ingame which obviously gives you a big advantage in many defensive situations
- good reactions that can sometimes solve tricky situatuons to your advantage
- presence on the pitch in general (not due to his body type but due to his god-like awareness ingame)
- best interceptions I have experienced this year - it's almost beyond legal how many passes per game are prevented by him and as I noticed this again and again, I fell in love and decided to write this review
- ridiculously good passing for a CB
- the price is a joke regarding the quality and links
- his pace is 100% competitive with shadow but not endgame or highest tier at this point of the game, but then again his other qualities will make you forget about this very quickly
