Much better than last year's card
By MightyBantam, 28-09-2021

Let's face it, last year's Paul Pogba base card was a dead duck. He wasn't really used in anyone's team, even at the start of the game.


That is not the case this year. Given the current meta, where passing and strength is king in midfield, Pogba shines. I use him as a central CM with an Engine chem card in a 4-2-3-1, alongside Partey and they dominate the midfield. Pogba wins headers, intercepts anything which attempts to break the lines and bullies anybody off the ball.


When it comes to attacking, his passing is superb. He can do the simple stuff in the middle of the park well, but also can easily find a pin point pass into the attackers. In terms of shooting, if given space, Pogba is deadly from long range. I scored a worldie with him yesterday. If your opponent decides to back off, just hit it within 35 yards and you're in with a good chance!


The only down side is sometimes you have to move him manually defensively as his medium work rate just takes the shine off what would be a perfect all round card.


Steadily increasing in price now as people are realising he's not last year's card.

A Must Have For Comp Teams!!

I must say as my best pack pull this year and being a manchester united fan I am absolutely over the moon on packing one of my favorite players. I was lucky enough to obtain him from the Ligue 1 League SBC. Pogbas glory was however short lived coming into my second half of the weekend league games. I am a consistent rank 2 and Elite level player so my definitions of a good playe...

Avoid at all cost

So i packed this guy untradable (otherwise he would have been long gone). And after 200+ plus games with him i cant reccomend this card to anyone even for 30k or so.I played him as a CDM in a narrow 4231 first. And this guys workrates feel like low/low. he just stands there being static not marking anyone or making any runs to open op passinglines.Unless you are the one controlling he'll do nothing ...

Pogba beast

I used this guy in silver lounge and he was amazing. He was stocky and heavy on the ball but he csored 4 goals in 2 matches 2 of them out of the box. His shooting is amazing and that really helps for completeing cherki. I really reccomend him for silver lounge.
