Play him as CDM!!!!!
By cgopie1, 15-03-2021

I only decided to check this card out for material to rant about how this card would not perform anywhere near as well as an 83 gold Gomez and how this is a problem with this game, but looking at his attributes I felt, "hang on, this guy would be useful in CDM", so I decided to buy him and try him out.


So I used him in this squad (https://www.futbin.com/21/squad/6938827), and switched to a 4-4-2 (2) in-game with Moore as the right CDM.


I have him on engine chem style, and his instructions are cover centre, cut passing lanes, normal interceptions, and stay back when attacking.


I used him in 28 games this Weekend League gone, and 37 games in total. He has 1 goal and 9 assists.


He is an absolute monster. I have used Petit (in the same team), Rijkaard, Curtis Jones, Kante and a few other good CDMs, but Moore is by far the best.


People would want to put a catalyst on him to give him that extra pace, but in midfield, he doesn't need it as much, and he is always in position when the opposition try to play through you. He is an interception king, better than Kante even.


His tackling is monstrous; he wins every tackle he goes into, and the stupid thing of tackling the opposition and the ball just bounces off the opposition so he keeps the ball just doesn't happen with Moore. When he tackles someone, he actually wins the ball.


I gave him the engine chem style because it makes all his dribbling stats 89+ except for dribbling itself, which means his defensive movement and change of direction is just perfect when dealing with an opposition that constantly changes direction via skills/etc. It also obviously helps when bringing the ball out from midfield.


This leads onto his passing, which is absolutely sensational. Through balls with this guy are brilliant and his over-the-top through balls are nigh-on perfect every time.


His 95 stamina is practically telling everyone to use him in midfield, so it's a surprise I've not previously heard of anyone trying him out there; he does get a bit tired before the end of the game, but only because I do control him a lot in defensive positions, and then sprint forward with him on the ball for the counter-attack whenever he wins the ball, which happens a lot.


Some people might want to try putting a chem style to improve his physicals, as he does sometimes get bullied off the ball by bigger and stronger opponents, like Renato Sanchez or Pogba, but it's not normally that much of an issue.


He has gotten into some shooting positions for me, and whilst he did score me one goal in weekend league, his shooting is as you'd expect it to be - atrocious.


All in all, he is the best CDM I've tried, and I think I'll actually keep him in my team long-term.


10/10

  • Perfect CDM
  • Pace is good enough
  • Intercepts everything
  • Tackling is brilliant and when he wins the ball he keeps the ball (not bouncing off the tackled player every time so you don't actually win the ball)
  • Great stamina
  • Passing is unreal
  • With engine chem style, his change of direction in defensive positions is amazing
  • Shooting is terrible
  • Can occasionally get bullied off the ball by stronger midfielders

SO I packed him in a random pack from division rivals rewards.

POV of me opening the pack: ICOOOOON english NNOOO CB FERDINAND THAT'S CLASS and no. it's bobby RIP


LET'S continue,

I was a lil sceptical OBVIOUSLY because of his pace but I don't play the META so... LET'S TEST BOBBY IN FUTCHAMPIONS!!!!

I know that you want to know how good is he but when you read that you'll have a gardenscapes advert.


Ok ready, I hope you've choose the umbrella to help tha BALD MAN. hmhmhm sorry


SO I'm actually surprised by the fact that his agility makes his pace really good and with a shadow/catalyst he's so good.

Good Agility


Links ( too obvious )


Passing ( with catalyst )

Price ( wait him to be under 700k )


Pace ( but like I said he has a pretty good agility )
