Italian Kante?
By ViniciusIsMyDad, 07-10-2021

I used him as a lone cdm in 41212(2), using engine chem style. All games in division 2 and division 1 rivals.

Defensively his very solid. Rarely has those annoying bounce back tackles, when he tackles he wins the ball. Very strong tackler. He also feels very strong in game when bodying attackers, very physical. Unofrtunately his pace and his agility are noticablely low in game, he doesn't turn very well and his recovery speed his a bit low, especially when comparing to the likes of kante. His dribbling isn't very smooth, yet for me I don't dribble much with my cdm and it is fine, he has control over the ball yet he can't turn very quickly. His passing is questionable sometimes, yet short range passing is reliable, his long passing is a bit dodgy although his stats look good in that area. his shooting is honestly abysmal, don't shoot with him.

I think he is very viable for now, as his defensive efforts are very good, great interceptor and tackler, gets good animations defensively and is a noticable anchor in game. His stocky body type also allows him to act as a brick, very tough to overpower him even with bigger attackers like haaland and lukaku.

The Dodgy Italian
By Andrailz, 17-11-2021

After using Gattuso for the latest 40 games in WL and Rivals I can state the fact that this guy is funny to use but at the same time the most frustrating player in the game. Due to investing in Vidal 3 weeks ago I've played with my first own team. Decided to do the Icon SBC and got this chap. The famous qoute "Sometimes maybe good sometimes maybe shit" is excactly what this card is. On the ball he's abysmal, he runs like Andy Carroll with it, cant pass the ball at all, if you compare him to how good Modric is at passing, he's that bad and is as agile as a brick trying to run in a circle. BUT in regards to winning the ball back he's undoubtedly the best player i've had. As soon as any player is close to him he literally butchers them. What's fun is that he actually does butcher the poor offensive players. The tackles are just hilarious. I mean, wow. If you want a player that can't do anything with the ball but you want someone to just run around screaming "You shall not pass" in two ways. This is your guy. Sadly for me it's just not enough and I would honestly recommend Valverde, Casemiro, Llorente or any other CDM more due to the fact that this dude can't be near the ball on a football pitch...
