95 - TOTS

4.5

The Senegalese with a 3rd leg

By Jaycobo70, 06-06-2022

First off, Koulibaly is one of my favorite defenders in real life, and I had the privilege to get this beautiful man in my red picks this past weekend league. Right away, I entered rivals (Division 2), and wow does this man body people. When guys get out on the wing, he can get out there and make the crucial tackle which I love, since, in the 3-5-2, I have a right mid who comes back but can't defend too well. I have Koulibaly on the right as he plays with Prime Moments Blanc and Showdown Romero. I have a Serie A, Prem Hybrid with Icons. His strength is OP, along with his fantastic ability to close down defenders right away, cut off passing lanes, or make a last-minute sliding tackle. His passing is very very good. 93 for short and long passing does the trick for me. His agility and balance are good enough for me. When people press I can easily turn and make the right read; 94 composure. On corners, he is very deadly with 99 jumping and 98 heading accuracy with a shadow. His dribbling is good enough and should do the trick when he's on the ball. High defensive work rates and power header trait included; you just cannot beat that in a beautiful Senegalese king. Overall, he is a rock and would be an amazing addition to your team if you can link him. I cannot stop looking at the beauty of the card since I have him in red. If you are looking to try and skill or shoot with him, then you have come to the wrong CB, but a highly recommend him. Better than TOTS Van Dijk to me, even TOTS Ruben Dias, as I had both at one point.

Stellar defending

Power header

Pace

3rd leg

Great passing

Agility and balance are good enough

The price, maybe, if you purchase him, but he will be worth it.

35 Shooting (but the one goal I got was a volley off a corner because, yeah, FIFA)

Links without ICONS or PREM if you have Sadio Mane.

Kalidou Koulibaly

Beast!

After playing with Varane and Lacroix, i decided to upgrade my attack and changed my defence to Koulibaly and Škriniar, which was the best decision i've ever made.He plays better than Varane for me and is an absoulute steal for just 30k!

The Great Wall of Napoli

This guy is a wall in the defense. He has perfect workrates, a very unique movement ingame, is fast and tall. Got 18 wins and 2000 points in elite division this week and a big reason why is the beast besides Niakhate in my defense.Only Con is his passing. Be careful there.

The Tank Just Got Tankier

Kouli has played way above his stats on Fifa 22 as far as I am concerned. Good dribbling, better passing than the card suggests (although still poor) combined with the great defending, outstanding physicals and top tier pace for CB's at this stage of the game. This upgrade is not absolutely crazy, but the best way I can describe it is that it is like his 'bully' style in game has been refined, so it is more controlled aggre...
