Mikel Merino Zazón

    3.5
    The is something wrong with this guy...
    Bysantiago61923-04-2022

    When I first saw a player who had all his main stats at +85 for only 60k I had a feeling something must be wrong with him. And indeed... In a 4-4-2 formation I placed him next to a regular Llorente and maybe that's why I have such a negative feeling. Merino despite having better almost all stats was worse in everything. What irritated me the most was his sluggishness and total lack of commitment defensively and offensively (high/high WR!!!). You want a good Spanish midfielder then get the much cheaper Llorente.

    + he is just OK in every stat, but nothing more than that

    -sluggishnes

    -shots much worse than the statistics show

    -Llorente 10x better and cheaper

    I packed this guy in the prime gaming pack from 1 of the player picks (definately claim this pack if u have amazon prime!). All of his stats are 83+ which is a massive dub. In game he drives my midfield and controls the game, with a shadow he can even run down the wing and put a good cross in. He made an amazing slide tackle on mbappe potm which I didn't expect. He felt really slow for 83 pace so I put a shadow on him. Would ...

    Great starter CM/CDM
    Mikel Merino was solid for me throughout this Weekend League – I finished 12-6 and gave last two matches away for Rank II rewards. I used him in a 4231 La Liga team, where he partnered Valverde as my two CDMs – both on stay back and cover center. Although he isn't nearly as fast as Valverde, every single one of his other stats are very solid for this stage of the game, and his pace is still usable with a Shadow or Catalyst (I...
