84 - Normal
It seems pretty much everyone had this dude at the end of last year, as he had near perfect stats and was probably the best CDM in the game. The start of this year is not very different though, as Acuña looks to be one of the more complete players in the game. Coming at a measly 3k, he boasts more in game stats than De Jong or Valverde who are both 30k plus. With this in mind, I bought Acuña and play him at LM on 7 chem then switch him in-game to CDM, and he's been doing wonders for less than a tenth of the price as the two aforementioned "premium" options. He completely changed my midfield, and completely outshines Allan who plays alongside him in a 4231.
On to the review, I think the dribbling needs to be mentioned from the get go. All 80+ with some high 80s, this man turns smoothly in a game of truck CDMs. His passing is brilliant as well, which is pretty crucial with the gameplay I've been experiencing. His long shots though not often personally used have really shown up. With 90 stamina and 80 strength along with high stats in all important defending areas, this man is an absolute beast in the midfield and will change your team immediately at a low cost. ?
Id say the only con is that his pace doesn't jump off the page, but with a shadow on he keeps up with most players on the pitch and all his other stats being so amazing help him overcome this. Not that his pace is bad at all to be honest.
