first thing why are people hating on this card he is insane let me explain.

pace: 9.5/10 - lacks some pace at long distance depending on chem style

shooting: 10/10 - best stat imo 5 wf is amazing and his shot power in game feels really good

passing: 8.5/10 - really good for an ST might lack in the CAM role

dribbling: 9.5/10 - best average body type dribbling I have used really responsive

defending: NA

physical: 9/10 - body type helps and the 93 aggression is really good

overall for me this card is worth double its value (200k) and is a must try if u run a prem team.

OMG this card exceeded my expectations, HE IS INSANEEEE I used him in div 2 upfront with Felix tots and he was insane. His pace is incredible he has decent passing his dribbling was insane but sometimes he gets bodied by some tanky defenders like Coulibaly (sry for spelling) and sometimes he will have a heavy touch, his composure isn't 90+ its a little bit lower in-game his shooting was insane but sometimes turns into Kepa BUT ANYWAYS THIS IS THE BEST STRICKER IVE USED SO FAR his h/h work rates arent noticeable at all he's so far the best prem sticker after cr7 toty and salah tots (7amlet sandwich dakoos said ashraf yassin tamer)

Used jota up top in 41212(2) after getting him in reds in front of Maradona Bernardo Silva and caqueret alongside Moments stoichov. He felt very clunky due to the average body type but his finishing inside the box was good.I used him to replace gnabry after getting him in reds and after 5 games he scored five goals , but due to his awful dribbling I benched him for gnabry.In my opinion alongside a player like gnabry with very good dribbling he would be alright ,but as I already have stoichov (who is a similar player to jota but better) I dropped him.Generally, I think that he should only be used in a single striker formation or alongside a good dribbler.

I finished weekend league with 9 wins as i am not the greatest player in the world. Sorry i am not at your expectations. I finish my WL after giving away 2 free wins (as all people should) and with nerves and excitement I go open my 1 of 3 PL Red Pick.

I open it and got Allison, Declan Rice, and Diogo Jota.

Looking at prices and stats, it seemed to me that Jota was the clear choice. I also have a partial prem team and he would link beautifully to FB Joe Gomez and TOTS TAA.

I decided to play with him as a striker in a 4222 and 352 partnered to the most underrated card in the game, TOTS Serge Gnabry.

Gnabry for me is the backbone of my team. His shooting is automatic, and I needed someone next to him who could also deliver

For this review, I used the Hawk chemistry style.

NOW THE REVIEW STARTS.

DRIBBLING - Diogo Jota was the most fraudulent card I believe I have ever used in Fifa. His 96 Agility, 95 Balance, 93 Reactions, 94 Dribbling, and 92 Composure felt like 1/2 of that in game. He turns like a truck. He does not feel smooth on the ball whatsoever. Left stick dribbling was incredibly underwhelming and piss poor to be honest.

PASSING - After attempting to dribble past my defender, I needed to get the ball out of Jota's posession. It just felt like any pass he made would be intercepted immediately, or would simply just land in the defenders feet. As a striker, you just need decent passing. He has far below decent passing.

PHYSICAL - With the Hawk chemistry style giving a boost to Physical stats, and him being 5'11, I thought that this guy would be a physical beast with 85 Strength, and 99 Aggression. Once again, fradulent. Guys you come against in every weekend league like FB Varane, TOTYHM Rudiger, FB Gomez, FBDAY Ramos, Captains Chiellini, etc. Were literally blowing air on Jota and jota would get blown over. He would always lose shoulder to shoulders against any decently built CDM or CB. He has absolutely no chance.

PACE - Yes, this card is very fast going North and South.

SHOOTING - With his only trait being Speed Dribbler, do not expect any crazy outside the box finesse shots, or anything close to it. Yes he will score inside the box as any player above 70 rated also would. His 94 Attacking Positioning was also a fraudulent stat, most likely due to his High/High workrates, I would often find him out of position.

OVERALL:

If you are looking for a guy who can do all of the things Jota cannot, save yourself 130k and go get Fut Fantasy Nani. DO NOT consider this card if you have coins to spend.
