86 - Rare
5.0
Marcos Llorente - Absolutely Insane
By Bucketeering, 27-09-2021

Coming in to this year I was looking at a few possible options for my starter CM. Llorente was definitely not on this list because of how ridiculously expensive I expected him to be. Fortunately, I packed IF Vinicius Jr. day one and Llorente cost a lot less than I expected. I immediately bought him and made him the centerpiece of my squad. He has consistently been my best midfielder and likely best overall player. He is so versatile you could probably play him anywhere in the midfield but I love my fast CDMs so I play him there with a shadow. He is a monster intercepting the ball and consistently wins it from opposing midfielders. He gets back on defense so quickly after an attack thanks to his blistering 98 pace. The most surprising part of his game is how effective he is attacking after winning the ball. As he outspeeds virtually any player the opponent may have you can easily begin an attack through him. Running up from the back creates a mismatch as he can outspeed fullbacks down the wing and cross surprisingly well or play as a second CAM in any given situation. Although he lacks 4 star skill moves his dribbling is surprisingly quick enough and is usually sufficient to beat opposing defenders. His shooting will catch you off guard as he can easily score bangers. Finally, I do recommend shadow over any other chem style. I have tried out anchor and I was not a fan. I'm sure you could make him a more offensive CM with other chem styles but like I said earlier, I love my CDMs. Overall, a fantastic CM and one of the best early game CMs I've used in a long time.

  • Awesome pace
  • Goretzka gang with a shadow
  • Great interceptions
  • Mismatch for opposing defenders
  • True box to box player
  • 3 star skills
  • Can occasionally get beaten off the ball by more physical CMs

Ramires Never Left, He Simply Reincarnated

Once upon a time there was a legend named Ramires that terrorized everyone who played this game. Suddenly, he disappeared from the game and never threatened the controllers of anymore players... until his perfected reincarnation came in the form of Llorente. This player is genuinely the best base gold midfielder I have ever used, and is a player that I plan to keep on my team by any means nec...

Best gold cm in the game

Before i start talking about the card I wanted to specify that I'm not english, so there are, most likely, gonna be mistakes in the review and also that this is my first review ever.But let's start talking about llorente: so I packed him in a random pack and i decided to try him. I felt in love with this card; he has anything you need in the CM or CDM position to be very solid.I tryed him with two chem styles:...

God.

This guy is the best CDM i have used so far, just like fifa 21. I had his 84 red pick last year and he was insane so i wanted to get him again this year and he is probably twice as good this year.
