Player Review
84 - Champions League
So originally, I had bought Mukiele RTTK a few weeks ago. I got him when Nkunku's rulebreaker was released, and in all honesty I didn't think that much of him. I sold him quite quickly, and Nkunku also found the bench. Fast-forward a few weeks later and I must say, he is one of the best CB's I've used this year. I used a 3-5-2 and 5-2-1-2 in-game, both of which, Mukiele found himself in the RCB position. I also tried using him in a 4-3-2-1 in which he was decent, but this card is built for CB, I feel his dribbling/attacking abilities lack the "modern fullback" role so it's better to use players like Cancelo/Hakimi there.
- Tackling abilities: Can easily bail you out in those tight situations
- Movement: Extremely good to jockey with which makes it extremely hard for those agile attackers to get past him
- Positioning: Rarely gets up the field and keeps himself close to his partners
- Heading: This card would have been perfect if not for his heading ability. In all honesty, it wasn't that big of a problem for me as I already had Varane, Rudiger and Benzema, but we still must consider it a con as a whole.
- Strength: Again, not a massive issue due to his body type and speed, but it's still an issue if he's up against a bulky midfielder.
