I get him in the icon pick few weeks ago .At start I thought he was a W as most people have good evaluation on him. But everything is different after I try him. Is it important for a CDM to have a good and steady defending. But he don't do any job on defending. I believe he is better on AM. Although he has poor shooting. I do not recommend people wants a CDM to get him. I would suggest Xavi Hernandez for you
Stamina: Man can be aggressive for 120 minutes and still can have another 120 mins
Passing: He have a nice long low passing ,but not for ball in air
Shooting power: As he have 93 shot power, Gk might give up on grabbing the ball, but it mostly fly the ball to the moon
Strength: with stocky body type, he stay well with big guys like campbell
Defending: It is important for a cdm to have good defending, but apart from interception. He is poor on every defending stats
Pace: Even with shadow, he lose in a run race
Agility: He turns slowly, which let him get rob of the ball even he is staying well
Finishing: He has a poor finishing, he miss chance from a short distance many times
Aggression: He rush into every player he see, and get card easily
Poor long shots: He shot the ball into the sky outside the box
Weak foot: Although he have 4*wf, but it feels like 2 stars at most time
Poor jumping: He lose ball from air each time
i got this guy out of the mid icon pack and I must say although at first it was only a small W he is a BEAST! Played him at cm/cdm in elite rivals and fut champs and it is safe to say he does not play to his defensive stats.
