87 - NUMBERSUP SBC
2.5
Le Van Basten espagnole (FR version)
By ScandolaFUT2, 15-11-2021

Buddies,


Let's talk a bit about Asensio NumbersUp! (if you like the review, come and give me some support and your opinion on my IG please: scandola_FUT)

 

This card is recoverable by doing an SBC worth around 45k. Although the SBC may not be very attractive at first, I have recovered the card to test the player but also for some reasons which I mention in the conclusion of this review. Asensio aka The Spanish Van Basten wears a Adidas Predator shoes giving him a mega boost in dribbling (+8) but also all these stats have been increased (+4 speed, +2 shooting, +5 passing, +1 defense, +2 physical and +86 in total). I tested the card in Rivals (division 2) for 7 games and placed as CAM in a 4-1-2-1-2. Thus, he scored 2 goals and made 2 assists.


His strengths are, first of all, his dribbling abilities with an general statistic of 91. Placed as an CAM, he is very maneuverable and nimble which makes it possible to rout the opposing defenders but also to conservate the ball within the opposing camp until you find the right space to pass the ball to attackers. Next, he has 88 shot power and 85 long shots which is very useful when placed as CAM and balls are recovered around the penalty area. He will often be able to score goals on long strikes. Ultimately, his nationality and championship allow him to make easy links and place him in a hybrid team.


Regarding his weaknesses, his physicality is horrible with an overall stat of 64. His endurance (78) is acceptable, but his strength (65) and aggression (46) are far too weak which results in a feeling of a lazy and listless player. To be honest, he got on my nerves at times with his nonchalance. Then, his penalty statistic is awful (64). I forced to get a penalty in a game that was already folded so that I could shoot it with him. I rarely miss a penalty and yet having placed the ball well on the right, his dirty left foot shot the ball right on the post. So, although I have only taken one penalty, I advise you in case of a penalty shootout to take it out before because it will undoubtedly lead you to defeat.


In conclusion, Asensio NumbersUp's card is descent as CAM and catastrophic as LW/RW. Especially since for a slightly higher price, there are much more interesting wingers such as Diaby RulesBreaker (60k). But I think that making this card can be very interesting in view of the Icon Swaps that may happen soon. If a full Spanish or La Liga team is required to complete the challenges, it will undoubtedly be a superb card given the few good cards with this nationality or this championship. Also, the price of the SBC is not huge (45k) especially since a small sellable Prime Gold player pack is collectable (22.5k) with another sellable pack. So, if you have unsaleable players, it is conceivable and quite strategic to make this card.

Decent value for a decent card!

I used Asensio for my remaining 10 games of weekend league and 4 game of rivals in division 2, he helped me get my 3rd rank 2 in champs this fifa. I play him CAM in a 4231 behind Vinicius Jr and Fekir at striker and he has not been outshone by the pair at any stretch. His pace is good with a hunter and that 91 dribbling is very noticeable, I can imagine him being very overpowered with that 99 dribbling upgrade. I find him s...

Golden left foot maestro

After first Numbers Up upgrade, he feels deadly. I tried many attackers this year included thy godly Kylian, But I have to say that In my squad consisted of Madrid players mostly, He is The most fun!! (I had Vini POTM, Karim FB, Fekir, Aouar) Driblling wise he really reminds me of Kylian.
