Player Review

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!
