The Most Underrated

By Unicepter, 20-01-2022

Well hello there,

I was using the Moments version of Socrates in 2021, so i wanted to try his prime until we got the moments this year.As i expected from him,he never let you down. I didn't find him too different with his moments.

I used him as CM with Bruno Fernandes in 5-3-2, He has Get Forward instraction on him so i expect him to join most of the attacks and he's doing pretty well.

With this formation, i don't expect an impact of the defence from my CMs. Even his defensive stats are so low, surprisingly he did so much defensive work too.

Lets come to gameplay shall we;

When you look at his stats the first thing you will notice is his "Balance". I admit that it's pretty low but is it feel that bad in game? My answer will be "No", actually it depends. Let me explain what am i trying to say. First of all, when he has the ball. You will be suprised how smooth it feels moving him. He does not give you that moving a truck like feeling.

His Shooting and Passing are phenomenal. If you have a change to shot with him outsideof the box take it, you'll not regret. Samething for his passing if he's not to tired like end of the game or extra time, he's not missing any easy passes even the hard ones.

Lastly, just wanna mention his physical stats, his stamina is quite alright 92 is decent. You can clearly play with hime 90+ minutes if you not playing with the "Hard pressure" tactic. Jumping can be seem low but in game scored so many heading goals from corner kicks, he's height compensate his jumping.

Overall, if you don't care he's meta or not, you definitelly can give him a try. I don't think you will regret. I definitelly recommend you "Socrates", if you want a decent Brazil player that can play both CAM and CM even ST with Hunter.
