Player Review
86 - Winter Wildcards
Picked him up for a reasonable 55k off of the market, which I initially found hard to believe, as looking at the card's stats I didn't understand why he wasn't more expensive. After using him for 16 games in Division 2 I'm still shocked at his low price tag. I used him alongside prime Zola in a strike partnership in a 442. Morales works very well with a secondary striker with good passing as his ability to get on the end of through balls with his good pace and finishing are some of his strongest attributes. His responsive dribbling and lean body type allow for the use of agile dribbling to get around defenders and unleash consistent finishes. I haven't tried him as a lone striker for fear of him getting isolated as his poor aggression limits his ability to smash defensive lines by himself.
All in all, I thoroughly enjoy this card and I expect Jose to remain in my squad for the foreseeable future
- Pace -Pretty much a no-brainer, but morale's explosive pace allows for more opportunity on goal than with most La Liga alternatives(i.e Benzema, no matter the chem style he never really felt fast)
- Close Range Shooting - Morales' ability to tuck away pretty much anything inside the box makes him a valuable player as his consistent finishing has won me multiple games
- Long Shots - Unlike most strikers, I've used this FIFA, Morales seems to actually hit shots from outside of the box with a decent amount of power, rarely spooning them towards the goal keeper as I've seen Fekir do multiple times
- Close Ball Control - I'm able to make my way past defenders without the need for skill moves while using Morales as his agile dribbling allows me to get around the likes of Kimpembe and Cozza WW

- Long Passing - Most attempts to play a long through ball ends up with me losing possession
- Aggression - His ability to shove defenders off of the ball to win possession or hold off a pressing player lets him down and is probably the main reason he isn't a 10/10 striker
