83 - Rare
I've used Bale at left striker in the 41212(2) with a hunter chem style, and he has played extraordinarily well scoring 43 goals in 26 games in div 2 and div 3 rivals.
Pace- He is incredibly fast, but players like adama traore clearly have another gear that bale doesn't. -8.5/10
Shooting- His left foot is incredibly powerful from anywhere, being able to score from incredibly tight angles and far distances. His shot power feels incredible, and the curve he is able to put on cross body shots is amazing. His weak foot rarely lets him down from close range, but when you're just inside the box it does sometimes stick out.- 9/10
Passing- His passing is all around amazing in every scenario, and is probably the best crosser I've used this fifa. His weak foot does not let him down in passing at all.-10/10
Defending- His defending is oddly good when I've gone into the 442 or when I've needed to press. The 58 defending does not let him down. 10/10 for a striker, but- 6/10
Strength- Bale is incredibly strong and bullies off the likes of sol campbell. -9/10
Pace- Chris smalling kept catching up to me one game and it kinda put me off, he does occasionally get caught up to.
Stamina- He really is not as good at the end of games.
Weak foot- It's not too big of a deal, but it does effect some longish right footed shots.
Dribbling- He doesn't feel that clunky on the ball, but you can't really la croqueta which really sucks. When he's tired though, he loses the ball if you feed it to him too much. -8/10
Price- I bought the OTW version bc Bale is one of my favorite players, but for 100k rn for the base, it's a little expensive. When he comes back into packs and drops 80k again, I'd definitely pick him up.
i packed him out one of my pre order packs used him a little as a right-winger and he is insane he can turn a game around and peaple argue about his stamina but I think its fine but I havent got any problems with any players stamina he just does the job and he improves the squad a lot, because my squad is so cheap i will probably sell him soon, but he is a fenomenal player and of my opinion he is worth it all
All started when I saw this card and saw that the meta has changed this year... The main question I had was: Is he good enough to pay that price for a 83 rated card?
And the answer is: it depends how you play
Here my opinion after 5 days:
Formation: 41212
Position: Right Striker
Chem Style: Hawk
If you like playing very fast counterattack with agile players and shoot with both left foot and right foot then this guy is NOT for you. If you like building in the game and you looking for a fun game with an amazing left foot player then Bale is for you. For me 51 games and 36 goals. His shooting is amazing but he does not feel quick and agile like Promes or Dembele.
If you look all RW in PL you will notice you won't have a lot of choice expect players like Adama / Lucas ...
For me his price now should be around 60k. So my advice is to buy him if you like the player, use him for fun during the WL and sell him back. in 2 weeks max you can get an amazing player for his actual price (100k).
Thanks and sorry for my English.
Shooting
Amazing left foot
Positioning (always around the box ready for left finesse shoot)
Surprisingly finishing
Not very fast as I was expecting
Dribbling is limited
Agility
If you're planning on using Bale as a striker on a cheap team, do it. I play w him and Douglas Costa as strikers and Talisca playing CAM, it works really well.
Pace, finishing and positioning. He's always in the right place and his finishing is great, also 6'1'' so its perfect for a striker.
The only thing I don't like about Bale is his stamina, it's bad, but still 100% worth it for his value.
Well, im not sure what to think about this card... Yeah, its looks sick, stats are really good for 83 rated, but... I didnt really enjoned playing him. His pace looks okay, but he looses the ball on wing very often. He dont score headers like last year, crosses are really good! And most important, his stamina, he is OUT of game after 70 minutes.
