Player Review
92 - ShowDown SBC
My man, Fabio Tavares, Champions League finalist got a showdown card and boy, this guy is DECENTTTTT. He's coming in a tad expensive, but gives great links to Liverpool's TOTS and special cards and also the likes of Militao.
Over the year, I've generally enjoyed CDM's like Lahm and Kante - agile, short, good stamina and aggressive tackling so Fabinho gave me a dynamic I wasn't partiuclarly used to, but it has adapted my game greatly and I've been very impressed with the card. At times he can feel a little clunky to turn with despite nice agility and balance stats, but overall this is massively outshadowed by his defensive contributions and overall ability to protect the defence behind him.
I had Flaco paired up with Future Star Bellingham in a double-pivot midfield, with Bellingham pressing higher and playing box-to-box with Fab hanging back and shielding the defence and he provided great cover to stop counter attacks, break up play and begin attacks for my team.
If you have the facilities for it (big man), I'd suggest doing this card - plus this guy may get a +2 upgrade... if Liverpool bring ol' big ears back to Merseyside.
