Player Review

I completed this SBC about 3 days ago and I can tell you that this is the best CB in the game. No Maldini, no Desailly, no Varane and even no Kimpembe. I use him as a CB, and it's working perfectly. At the kick off, I like to pass it to my CB, which is normally pretty risky,, but with Gvardiol that's no problem. Because of his strength, he can push someone who is pressing him. He also has very good dribbling (for a CB). This means that, after I pushed the presser away, can move up the field, but not the standard halfway line, the half of their half. Another thing I really like about him are his reactions and interceptions combined. When someone is going down the wing and tries to pass it in the center, Gvardiol has such a quick reaction to intercept it. And even if he reacts a bit late, he still intercepts it. I also like his long passing. If you watch Ajax, you maybe know Lisandro Martinez. Martinez can pass the ball perfectly, from his own box to the other side, perfecttly on someone's chest. This is the same with Gvardiol. It's like magic. He can find anyone, even the shorter people in my squad. But keep in mind that he also has some cons. One of them is his body type. Because of his body type, which is High & Average, he runs like a truck. This makes him feel a bit slower. Another con is that his sprint speed is higher than his acceleration. Because of his body type, he accelerates pretty slow in-game. This leaves me, and probably you aswell, vulnerable on the counter. BUt with all that said, I can conclude that Gvardiol is a certified beast.
