VINÍCIUS JUNIOR

HOW I DECIDED TO BUY HIM

Before FIFA 22 came out I had already made a decision to get Vini and Benzema (Cuz they have been on fire this year and yeah I´m a Real Madrid fan) so I loaded up some FIFA points until I had enough to buy them.

MY TEAM

I´m running almost a full Madrid team (only lacking Mendy, he´s just so expensive) and using the in game Real Madrid tactics from Kick Off and the team just clicks man! The defense is soo good Modric is a Magician on the midfield and is so free having Valverde and Casemiro on the pitch with him and up front having Vini - Benzo - Rodrygo is just deadly. I Love playing with this Madrid team in FUT.

VINÍCIUS

Back to Vini - He is Fast he is Lethal in front of the goal. Near-post, far-post, finesse shots it doesn´t matter he kinda feels like IF Neymar from FIFA 21 you can just feel how juiced his IF card is. On the dribble he flies like a feather as he dribbles through players.. he´s just amazing

PRICE

Yeah he is kinda expensive but if you have the coins to buy him and have a good team around him he is absolutely worth it and will probs get higher when the game fully comes out

LAST THOUGHTS

If you´re thinking of buying him.. do it! You just have to buy good players around him to get the best of him

He is absolutely lethal. As a Madrid Fan, I love this card. And hes will go up in price

His dribbling is amazing. He is really agile on the ball and turns fast. I use marksman to get a little longshot boost along with the ball control boost and played him striker alongside talisca but plays amazing on the wing aswell. Now pricewise it might be something to talk about because his shot wont be as good as someone like håland or lewandoski in front of goal but it is consistent enough. He is now pretty expensive for some people and I just got lucky enough to get him untradable. Links is good aswell. Being brazilian and in laliga. And having 5 star skills along with 4 star weak foot makes him even better.

How I Decided To use him for LW/LF

Vini was most definitely going in my team as he is my favorite player, and I was lucky enough to pick to pick him up for under 160k within the first few days of early access. His base card has significantly been changed from last year: he feels different on the ball, much quicker, and feels like he has a different unique body type. Now I will be going into each of the key aspect's of this card. Can't wait for his cards in the future, will definitely be insane.

Pace

10/10

Feels so rapid on and off the ball he can get past any man, whether it is lacroix or varane he's flying past him. He feels much faster than his PTG from last year already.

Shooting

8.5/10

His Shooting is really underlooked. Ignore the stats b/c his shooting... even without a particular chem style he feels great and with a marksman or deadeye he feels even better. Shooting is harder this year, so if you are having problems with him, it is likely that you will have problems with everyone. One tiny thing I did notice is that he has miss the net quite a few times, but at the same time he has score countless bangers. Whether its finesses, Near Post, Drivens, etc. He scores them. His off target shots can be a problem, but I think that is happening with lots of other players as well. Just have to get used to the angles.

Passing

8/10

Feels great with his passes; can setup nice through balls, crosses, drivens, lobs, etc. This year passing is lot easier to intercept so I guess I will be giving him an 8, especially as it is not his key stat.

Dribbling

10/10

Insane dribbler, feels like a damn magician on the ball I swear to God. By far the best dribbler I have used this year, he feels very similar to the way ney felt last year, only faster. Tight possesion, balance, control, is all insane especially with the '96' agility in game stat. Feels incredibly light on the ball as opposed to RTTK Sane, base Mbappe, base son, etc. His dribbling feels endgame already, keeping it a hunna. With the 5 star SM its even better b/c there are so many options to get around defenders. He will cut through every defense like smooth butter knife and his Left Stick dribbling is insane in this game. His dribbling feels 'smooth' as opposed to 'sharp,' which is why I think he is amazing. Smooth > Sharp

To be honest, I dont have the coins to buy Ney/Mbape/CR7, but from the mid price players I've used he is definitely the best attaker.

At firs I tried him as a CAM with Deadeye. He was good.

Than I decieded to play him as a ST (next do dembele) with finisher and he is absolutely amazing !

In the box he is unstoppable. He is quick, agile and got amazing finishing. You cannot stop him in the box.
