Player Review
81 - Normal
I love pepe as a player, but on an Arsenal only team, I need an impact sub so Saka starts over him.
I also want to say, this card is fairly on point I think. But lets review how does Pepe do when he comes on.
Pace - Late game, he is quick. As the stamina on the defenders is dropping Pepe comes on and takes advantage. 88 would mean from the start probably just as usable too.
Shooting - Now, his shooting is more disappointing than I expected. Especially outside the box (or perhaps I haven't got the times finesse down just yet.) but in the box the driven off the left is amazing.
Passing - His passing is quite nice, he gets a fair few assists when he comes on.
Dribbling - His dribbling is a bit worse than I expected. But, later in games when the defenders don't react quite as quick it is not as issue at all. You can pass even the best defenders with him.
Price - 800 coins for a damn good Rare winger to start the game? Yes. Please. More of that especially if you like to cut in.
Weak foot - its bad, passing is OK but shooting is dreadful.
Defending - he is bad defensively. It's not a huge issue, but if you scrape back the lead and you want to drop back a bit you need to be careful on his side. (Not helped by Cedric behind him.)
Physical - he feels quite weak. Not much more to say, his balance and agility don't help like some players do.
