Player Review
87 - TOTGS
I'll try to keep this short and simple, as that's all this card deserves. Keep in mind I am a rank 2-3 Weekend league player. When long shots weren't useless, this card was usable. Now that long shots are trash, this card is completely useless. I've tried him for over one hundred games and his play is the same every game: underwhelming. His height would suggest he is quick on ball, and he is nowhere near that. I can compare his dribbling to that of gold or POTM Benzema, NOT the flashback. With chem, his 99 pace feels more like 90. He does not make any runs on his own. He has also costed me games due to the fact that he can't pass, more specifically he cannot cross. Every cross he attempts is wildly off target. If you can lay a ball directly to his feet inside the box, he may bang it, but that is expected even of an 80 overall card. Bottom line: this card is a borderline liability to my lineup. I've begun subbing in David Neres at halftime for him. Once I get enough quid to buy his replacement, he's gone and will never return. Do not waste your time on this card, there are so many other good options. This card is worth 30k at most.
