89 - TOTY Honourable Ment

4.5

One of the best LaLiga CB

By Ponchosantos411, 29-01-2022

I was really hyped when I knew this card was coming because I've been using his otw for a lot of matches and I loved him. So, as soon as he was in packs, I bought him. OMG what a CB he is.

Pace 9/10

By applying a shadow on him, his pace goes to 92, and you can really feel it. He can cach up players like Mbappe, Alessandrini, and some other fast af players, which is realy surprising. Just don't expect he will always catch them.

Shooting 7/10

I scored a couple of outside of the box goals, so if you try him as a btb or cdm, he might put some footballs in the back of the net.

Passing 8/10

I love playing with quick passes as soon as I get the ball so I usually look for CB that have decent passing and oh my, Alaba was just perfect at it. Along with his 4 star wf, his passing is pretty reliable, which gives you a lot of security in the back.

Dribbling 9/10

I mean, for a CB, he feels reaaaaaally smooth with the ball. Pretty agile and with that composure, you are not going to be failing passes that could end up in receiving a goal. If you try using him as a midfielder, his dribble might be an 8/10.

Defending 9.5/10

He's way too good defending, he gets the ball so much haha sometimes when you catch a player, there's not actually a needing in pressing any other button, he already has the ball on his feet. He might not be a FB Varane or a Kimpembe, but if you know how to defend, there wouldn't be any problem.

Physical 8.5/10

He is not the strongest or the player with the most agression stat, but you don't actually feel like he's lacking on it. He can body a lot of people, and along with his pace he can get the ball easily.

I'm a division 1 and rank 3 player, so I kinda know something about defending, an he's a really good and cheap option for a LaLiga squad

Very nice well rounded player (OTW David Alaba)

I picked up this Alaba for 45k odd to use at CDM in game in a 41212, however I have also used him at CB and he is incredible in both positions, but probably better at CDM in my opinion. I've played roughly 50 games with him in the team in div 5/4. His passing and ball movement in general is phenomenal. His dribbling is good, especially for a stockier body type in game with high reactions and composure also featuring in this...

ALABA 87 OTW

I wanted to try other things, everyone play Varane-Kimpembe , and i was pretty sick with this duo in RIvals and Weekend League, and my Kimpembe was atrocious , don't know the reason, so i bought this card for 68K and i use Shadow on him to boost the pace and the defending stats as much as possible.The links are great, Mendy and Benzema FB, and i pair him with Marquinos GOLD, and just from my gameplay , Alaba it's bet...

Versatile Early Game Beast

Phenomenally versatile player for 13k (Sept 25th price). Incredible centre back early game, always great to have a left footed player to play on the left of a 2 or a 3 back, Alaba is perfect in both spots. He really needs a shadow to help his recovery speed but anchor could also work.I actually use him as my left CM in a 4231 on s...
