Fabinho (Gold Version)
By ArtLer87578, 07-12-2021

So, I played 454 matches with Fabinho, and ready to let you know my thoughts on this card. Unfortunately, as much as I love Fabinho in real life, he's just a slightly above average player in FIFA 22 only because of his incredible defense. What's good is that he's not expensive at all and anyone can try him out. EA made the man dirty, making his card slow as turtle, and the bad agility makes it even worse. Honestly if you think about it, he probably should play as 3rd CB in a formation with 3 or 5 defenders.


There are only two advantages I can think about - defense, and shots right outside the box. As a CDM he recovers and intercepts everything possible, he's great in a system with 2 CDM but also can be outstanding as lonely CDM. With the shadow chemistry his defense is on VVD level. regarding the shots, he sometimes shocking me with good long shots from the right side outside the box, netting them in the opposite corner not leaving any chances for the GK.


But other than that, his horrible pace and mobility ruining this card and almost throwing it to the unusable category. As a Liverpool fan I keep using him even in the Elite division which I reached a some time ago, but I feel like it's time to swap him for a much more mobile player... and I will do it when the first opportunity appears. Ps. I'm banned from the transfer market :(

Hungry Fabinho

Cant wait to try this card. Fabinho as an attacker was always my dream, so I buy him instantly for 600k. He is extremely hungry, flying more then running, fastest card I ever played this year. He can shoot well, not excellent, but well. He is very smart, always where you need him. And that passes! Most accurate pass I see this year. Also he still defends well, not like 65 defending, more like 80. If you play 41212 or 4312, ...

Flaco

My man, Fabio Tavares, Champions League finalist got a showdown card and boy, this guy is DECENTTTTT. He's coming in a tad expensive, but gives great links to Liverpool's TOTS and special cards and also the likes of Militao.Over the year, I've generally enjoyed CDM's like Lahm and Kante - agile, short, good stamina and aggressive tackling so Fabinho gave me a dynamic I wasn't partiuclarly used to, but it h...

Fabinhooooo

Fabinho is playing for me as a CDM. He is performing extremly strong in the 4-3-3(2). I made him and was full of hope that he would help me in the defense and oh my god he is so good. Pace: You can run in the offense and then back in defense. He is the fastest CDM I played this year. Shooting: I cannot really say something about this stat. He is just for defending in my team.
