81 - Normal
I needed a cheap right mid/winger to finish out my starter premier league squad and after trying out a couple of the options I tried Pepe and WOW. First off he is so big for how fast he is so most fullbacks can't push him off the ball, and his left foot shooting has been unbelievable. He feels so similar to how Robben has felt in previous fifas. He makes great runs, and if you can manage to cut in on your left his finesse is GROSS. I've played him at RW, RF, and RM in probably 5 different formations as I figure out what I like, and he has fit in every single one. I'm sure there are better wingers out there, but he felt significantly better than every premier league right midfielder not named Salah. Give this guy a chance, and you won't be disappointed. His crossing with his weak foot is fine, something I was initially concerned about but haven't had any issues. Definitely try to avoid shooting with his right if you have the choice, 2* weak foot is no joke for shooting.
- So fast, not surprising but very helpful
- Shooting (left foot only) - long distance specifically but obviously he's great up close
- Dribbling - 4* skills and feels really agile, combined with his size it's pretty easy to beat fullbacks
- Stamina - I'm not sure if it's just not an issue with this fifa, but I have him running all game and it's not been an issue for me
- Weak foot shots - Just don't
- Passing - His passing is FINE, but it's not what he's good at
