87 - FUT Birthday SBC

Timber Review

By Amecii, 08-03-2022

I knew this card would be perfect for a fun hybrid team. The 5 star skills are very unique for cb's (even though they're unnecessary and I rarely find myself skilling with my centerbacks), and made him a must complete SBC for me, especially coming it at 50k.

Pros:

The card itself isn't "meta" but is definitely very good. For starters, the card has 86 pace, 91 strength, 80+ agility and balance, meaning the card is going to be rapid, strong and very very good on the ball. The defensive stats are very good as well besides the heading accuracy (but it's not a real issue because of his 93 jumping). The card is decent in the air, and is very good at sliding/standing tackles and will occasionally push up and win the ball. The pace is a real asset due to the recovery pace, especially when he gets caught out for pushing too high up.

Cons:

Although I really like this card and will be using him for a while, there are a few flaws for this card. Mainly, the H/M work-rates, which makes him out of position often and can lead to a headache with your CB not playing the way you'd want. Another major flaw this card has is the low reactions, and although its not horrible, it's definitely not ideal to work with, and he can feel very slow to turn especially on through balls.

Overall:

I think this is a must do SBC because the card is very fun to use and is pretty good in game. The SBC right now is 40-50k, so even if you don't end up liking the card you won't be losing out on many coins as most 87s fluctuate around 20-25k(30k at times). The card isn't the easiest to link because there are no good eredevise gk, and the fullback options are limited (the fullbacks are also not good either), but if you are able to link him, I'd suggest trying this card out as although he's not going to be the best defender you'll ever use, I can guarantee he'll be one of the most fun ones you've used. This card can also be used at RB if needed.

A card I'd recommend pairing him with is Teze, I tried RTTF Martinez but I didn't really like the partnership and preferred Timber and Teze instead.

Timber :)

The first thing I can say is his agility, the man is fast as a bullet. I tried this man along side RTTF Martinez and they both did their jobs well but in my personal opinion I think players like TOTY HM Rudiger are better than timber because of the Med/ High work rates. I highly recommend Timber if you are able to link him. The SM is a plus as well.

Mbappe's nightmare

So I recently packed Timber and he looked very awesome so I decided to try him. His pace, defending and physicality is just ridiculus and he can even drible very well :D.Althouth he is pretty short, he can win header duel against much taller players cause he has 98 jumping. I even scored some header goals with him. Playing Timber kinda feels like playing Kante as CB, he's just flying aroud players like a wasp. Well y...

Just crazy

I've got to start by saying it's 100% recmmendable if you can get him. He's just fast, strong, and always there to defend, exactly what you would expect form a cb. I also felt his agression a lot, and that, combined with the 98 defending he gets with a shadow, and the 99 pace, it just makes him a crazy cb. He's also preety good at headers, he's alredy scored 3 goals in 20 games (all in ...
