Maestro in midfield!

By MakeNoise, 10-10-2021

So it's my first review ever but i just couldn't stand the hate this fella gets in comments. First of all the pace: since the pace isn't so op this year (hope this stays that way) in game he's fast enough when you slap a shadow on him. His defending on shadow is perfect to get the ball back, he intercepts a lot! He can keep the ball in tight moments and pass the ball perfectly. Im playing 4-3-3 (4) LaLiga and PSG hybrid - LCM De Jong RCM Verratti Depay on CAM and Benzema on ST. Im currently in div 5 so not great not terrible i guess, Verratti just fits perfectly in my possession tactics. Most important: dribbling and passing: he can turn so fast, can out move the opponent flawlessly and place the perfect pass when needed, sometimes he can even score outside the box, but he is not the best shooter to be honest. If you need a player that can recover and keep the ball for a while then pass its player you are looking for! If you need strong, tall that's physically dominates the midfield, he surely isn't the best choice. Overall for just about 10k you get a complete CM that provides a lot! Highly recommend to give him a go!

I can highly recommend Verratti if you need a b2b holding style playmaker!

Super cheap for the quality he provides
Great passing
Great dribbler, he gets past the oponent with ease
great b2b holding cm
interceptions on shadow compared to high defense workrate
fast enough on shadow just trust me

he's small and not so strong, can't win a header and can be bullied by big players
not much more for me, maybe shooting but i got other players that gets the job done, he just delivers and gets the ball back

Verratti, finally a card that credits this man.

Im just going to get straight to the point, i personally think this card is INSANE! He is so agile and he is really fast for his stats. Not fast for running down the wing, but explosive for getting out of areas in the midfield and his dribbling is on the level of Messi, Di Natale, SIF Vini. This card is a breath of fresh air in the midfield, i would 100% recommend this card if you can fit him in your team. He remind me of K...

The Italian Magician

First of all I am playing in Elite Division (1900+ SR) and managed to get a few 20-0 this year.Since my full untrade team already included 2 PSG players it was obvious that Verratti would become the third and oh my!He is the best middlefielder I have used this year! He feels like a mix of Kimmich and Kanté, very fast, agile and aggressive. Wins most of his duells and is able to directly lead the counte...

Italian Kante

This card came out and the first thing I thought was "Kante". The 5'5" plus the unique body type... this guy is built like Kante! For some magical reason, these defensive mids feel 20 overall more than their actual pace. Now, Veratti is not Kante's speed, but it was adequate, to say the least. He can catch up to most players. Like Diego Lainez's future stars last year, having acceleration that is much higher than the sprint...
