Almost perfect
By panos21sonic, 04-01-2022

This card came so close to being perfect. I used him w a hunter in a 4231 wide, because he just is not fit for striker. So, individually:

Pace - He feels like speedy gonzales, if he isnt pushed he makes great runs and in like the only player who noticably outpaved kimpembe


Shooting - Oh my lord, his shooting is actually perfect, I cant stop gushing about how good he is. He can semi easily score from 20-27 yards, if you get lucky you can bang one in from like 35 yards. His traits are so helpful w his stats. His 90 long shots + high shot power + 99 finishing + 4*wf + finesse shot + long shot taker gives you the option to score from everywhere. Edge of the box while sprinting? Check. Shooting from downtown? Check. Obscene angles w finesse, bent around the keeper? Check. Obscene angles from outside the box? Check. ONly gripe i have is he tends to sometime miss easy chances and is sometimes a crossbar merchant. He also makes good runs fyi


Passing - Godly. His passes basically always go through, no matter how bullshit the run is. Longballs, short passes, lobbed passes, crosses, hes got it all. His freekicks are also insane. curve too. Only time i noticed how good passing is on a card.


Dribbling - Here comes the real issue. While yes, he does feel great on the ball, moves very quickly, his touches sometimes feel a little heavy and can be a tad unresponsive at times compared to how fast he moves. Also. HIs composure kinda kills his card. As soon as he faces anyone w 70+ defending, hes already lost the ball. He gets pocketed by everyone way too soon and way too easily. Succeeding w him comes down wether you can play keep away from defenders, and at least he allows that to happen, If you learn how to spin like a 10 sensetivity black ops 2 trickshotter, you should have no problem, mix in a couple skillsm and depending on how good you are, you wont struggle as much. You can kinda humiliate opponents w him if you get used to him.


Physical - Shocking, bets pushed off the ball easily, but as i said w him you need to play keep away, so if you play him like that you want have too big a issue. Also Im playing him cam w all default instruction and i didnt notice any problems w his stamina unless i really tried to abuse his card.


Defending - Cant win anything but what do you expect.


Sidenote - Hes gotten many hattricks, many times he was rated 9+ regardless of wether i won or lost, and has scored wayyyy too many absolutely bullshit shots

The Game Changer

I completed the Zola SBC with the small amount of fodder left in my club for around 250k. He is around 550k on the market at the time of writing so I got him for half price and he is more than worth it.I am an Elite level player whom favours possession based football slowly breaking down the opposition defence. If you are a ...
