Riyad Mahrez

    5.0
    KING MAHREZ
    ByTiki1407-11-2021

    This card is absolutely insane for me. If you need the perfect RAM try this guy. Carried me to Rank 2 in Div 1. Absolute king.


    I would strictly use him in the 4231 at right cam. Him and KDB make a dangerous duo on the right side of the pitch. Also make sure to use a maestro on him. A hunter is not worth it and doesn’t help key stats.


    I tried sterling, Inform Foden, politano, and dybala. And nobody compares to him. The 5* skills puts him in a class of his own. GOAT.

    PROS:

    Shooting-He does not miss often for me. Great height and power in his shots. Finesse god too.

    Dribbling-Doesn’t loose the ball often. Dances on defenders. 5* skills makes him super nice on the ball.

    Passing-Pretty good passing not bad.

    Pace-His agility makes him super shifty and quick footed. Gets around defenders easily. Def not an issue.

    CONS:

    None. Unless you challenge defenders a lot then you will get bodied because his strength may lack. But his balance cancels that out and makes him have his feet glued on the ball.

    THE ALGERIAN KING
    What can I say other than this card is absolutely phenomenal. He feels a lot better than his gold card. I used him with a hunter. He is extremely fast. Nobody can catch him. His shooting is great. He has the finesse shot trait so he scores alot from outside the box. His dribbling is his standout attribute. Agility, balance, size and 5* skills combine to form the perfect dribbler. He is so smooth and elegant on the ball. He ke...

    Don't sleep on this guy
    A superb CAM who leaves top defenders with twisted knees.People are so quick to write him off because of pace, given his starting position as a winger. However, changing him in game to a CAM makes him one of the most deadly to play in that role. Mahrez is famed for his dribbling in real life and EA have replicated this IG so well. Just using left analogue dribbling (no real need for high level skill moves) he can wiggle pa...

    City are going all the way
    I play Mahrez as a CAM or striker depending on whether I'm in a 4231 or 442 on a hawk. He's unreal. he just glides past people with long strides paired with great responsiveness and swiftness. Comes in and out of skill moves like a dream and his shooting is cold too. Work rates not an issue with the right instructions and he obviously has the potential to get upgraded a crazy amount.I won't be selling mine for a hot minute an...
