93 - Rare

Press B to score

By sEb96, 24-10-2021

So I've been getting 'kind of' lucky with my pack pulls and one of those draws has been Messi (untradeable). I already run a Prem-La Liga-Hybrid so it was hard to fit him in at first, until I started to sort of give up on having every player on full chem (screw you OCD). So here I am running Messi on 8 chem and holy smokes he is absolutely cranked. I play on PC and almost every game feels incredibly sluggish, but not anymore now that he is on my team. I put him in as my 2nd striker, next to Sterling in a 3-5-2 with RTTK Fekir being the CAM (used to be the other striker). Every run Messi makes, every pass coming from his foot and every touch is just so relieving. That's the biggest change that I've noticed. I, personally, just feel so much more relaxed knowing that I am using a player that will actually respond to the input from my controller and player who always seems to find an open space anywhere on the field. The only instructions I gave him was to stay central and the runs that he makes are just incredible. Also, in tight 1v1 situations, if you have even the slightest opportunity to pass the ball off with a defender pressuring you non-stop, Messi won't crack. And don't even get me started on his shot. That thing just comes off so effortlessly. When he is even only somewhat clear on goal, just press the damn button and he'll probably score. This card is absolutely insane and I highly recommend it to anyone who can somehow afford him!

4/4* combo
incredible runs
effortless shot
insane ball control
accurate passes
never feels sluggish on the ball
so much fun to just run around dribbling the ball

height, but barely noticeable
stamina, if not used upfront
overall physicality although he sometimes feels glued to the ball (make sure to use him correctly)

MESSI GOAT

After using Messi for 10 games i think i can make a good review from him. He is simply the best gold card i haved used, i have used CR7 and Messi. Based on the meta that is passing and dribble, Messi y simply best than CR7. His shooting is unbelievable, his passing is another class, his dribbling 100/10, sprint speed is ok/good, and his acceleration is another level. If you have the coins and the links buy him. AWESOME!!!

The Goat

I have been trading to 1 mil coins so that I can buy Messi and a decent squad around him, after about 40 games in div 2- div 3 I have to say this is the most fucked card I have ever used. I have grinded futdrafts and have used all the top players Mbappe, Neymar, Ronaldo,.... but this card is a glitch. Messi's dribbling is so smooth you can just hold R1 move left right left right and break ankles, not only that but his accel...

Hey there,in this years meta its all about small pacey players with good dribbling (agility/balance)... This makes even the gold Messi one of the best players in the game.
