Okay, two things to acknowledge first:

1. I played over 200 games with his mid before
2. Huge Bayern fan, so substract sentimental value

I do love me some postional experiments. As I needed to try this card, I recently acquired him, put him next to IF Kanté in a 4231 and put IF Valverde as RB for chemistry reasons.

And wow, is he phenomenal. Lightning quick and agile, precision passing long and short while also being defensively great.

He truly feels like an extremely upgraded Kanté ingame.

Great defensive awareness paired with his speed means that he will always be there to defend. In build-up, he obviously is great, too.

I absolutely recommend trying him out at CDM if you can manage to put someone at RB. Hard to imagine that there will be better CDM cards except the obvious ones (Gullit, Vieira).

As I prefer agile players in every postion to e.g. the Sissokos of the world, he is perfection.

I advise using Catalyst on him as his defending already is incredible but boosting that pace and maxing that passing seems to be the move.

He obviously is not a scoring threat but will put clear chances in the back of the net. As I do not shoot with my CDMs too much, this is not relevant for me.

I also feel like that strenth is not important. He is not bullied but wins his duels, especially when jockeying.

Hey guys, thanks for your time reading this.

Well, this Bayern's legend can be nothing but amazing. Lahm prime card it is a glitchy defensively despite the lack of aggression and strength and you will know why.

I packed this legend untradeable from a JUMBO RARE PLAYERS PACK after completing 300 wins for LIVE FUT Friendlies (that a I sweat to complete for TOTY) and I was very excited to try it on my WL.

Pace: slap a shadow on this boy and he will take you to the moon. Forrest Gump is a myth, this guy is real. 98 acceleration and 96 sprint speed with a shadow grants you a high end runner player for your squad as well as mini tank (he is 5'7" tall). Neymar? No problem. Kent? No problem. Mané? No problem. Just tell me a guy and I will keep saying: no problem. This guy is amazing and he is short so I don't know how this works but he runs fast my dudes.

Shooting: scored twice with him at the previous WL (I'm using stay back while attacking setting so it is not normal for me play agressively with him). Quite good shooting for a RB and a CDM (you can use him as a CDM just fine). Not the best but it is ok.

Passing: 86 vision, 91 crossing, 88 short and 86 long passing and 87 curve. Do you have a war tank upfront like Vieri, Vieira, CR7 etc? Just put this guy to cross and you will be scoring a lot of goals. His passing is great I can't complain about anything, he just do good and know how to work properly. This lad is a machine, can run, can pass and can defend.

Dribbling: 87 agility, 93 balance, 94 reactions, 89 ball control, 83 dribbling and 94 composure. This guys feels like melted butter oozing through the pitch. I was really impressed with his dribbling ingame.

Defending: superb. He really makes me feel like I have Kanté. He is not so aggressive (69 aggression and 63 strength) but somehow he just can catch the ball, simple like that. His right leg is clinical. I use him as a RB and won't replace him sooner.

Physicality: 5'7" tall and 74 jump, he basically can't even skipping rope. 94 stamina? As I said my boys, Forrest Gump is a myth, this guys is real. 90 minutes + extra time with no problem.

Workrates: defensively he is amazing. Outstanding defensive card. Can't complain about anything.

CLOSING WORDS: if you have the money and really want someone outstanding this lad is the right for the job. Don't be afraid from his aggressive and strength stats he is a ball robber.
