A short review: As a diehard VfB fan, I was very happy when this card was released. Now - 250 games later - I am even happier. He is a monster.


I am playing Elite Div when I am motivated to play Rivals. Normally I only play WL and finish it with 11-13 wins. Thats my level of gameplay. And I can tell: Silas is insane.


U can easily play him up front, on the wing, and - what I do most lately - as an attacking CM in the 41212(2)-formation. His defense is good enough to win some duels. If you play with some kind of pressing, he is your man.


I really do not understand why nobody is playing him. Well.. everybody is having R9, Pele, Euse and Cruyff from Icon Packs, maybe thats why.

  • 5* WF
  • very agile
  • good physics
  • fast
  • Heading is also quite good
  • maybe his passing sometimes, but it is overall okay if you dont try some magic passes

Zlatan FB 2.0
Hello there, after seeing Silas in the 2nd batch of the shapeshifters Promo, I immediately bought him and tested him in 20 FUT Champs games. It took only one half to recognize, that he is the most fun card I used all year. If he is on the ball, you just wanna do sombrero flicks and score 20 yard volleys just like Zlatan in Fifa 19. I literally had no fun playing FIFA in the past couple of weeks but with Silas, the game is pre...

I found him in an 84+ SBC and I decided to use him as a sub in the beginning... As a sub he scored 5 goal and 3 assist in 8 matches... I'm trying him as a RM or LM in the 4231 and he's insane. He's fast, he scores, 5* weak foot and skills, nobody can't steal the ball from his feet...

What's in a name?
Wamangituka! I mean no disrespect to the unfortunate circumstances surrounding that name, but I still catch myself screaming it every time he finds the back of the net. It's a reflex from the days of his silver stars, before the name change. The TOTY was a nice way to bring him back into the squad as FIFA 21 winded down. These cards however fun were limited to the silver lounge or dramatic cameos off the bench. However, this ...
