88 - Icon
4.5
Neeeeeeesta
By forzamilan93, 18-11-2021

As a Milan and Italy fan, my feeling was complicated when I pulled this legend out from my basic icon pack. I absolutely love his game IRL but sadly in this game Nesta is not that usable coz pace and agility (36 agility is just disrespectful). When I rebuild my defense line and wait for selling varane and VVD for the coins to buy base Fabio, I decided to give Nesta a go with Artist chem aside with Marquinhos. He is performing far higher than my expectation. I'm using Artist but he still has the acceleration close to VVD with Shadow and his agility is becoming acceptable (same as Koulibaly) With cautious interception on manual, he can be a real defensive anchor. His reaction is god tier and his positioning is just on point. He does need a pacey CB and FBs to help him slow down the opponent on fast counterstrike but tbf you shouldn't let that happen a lot with good defense habit. One additional benefit from Artist is that he has comparable long pass ability to VVD and Marquinhos and enough dribbling against pressure. I'm only a Div 2 player so my skill is limited but this guy really gives me some surprise as not only a nostalgia but an actual usable asset.

Nesta the absolute god
By Nesta08, 11-12-2021

The reason I have this card and I enjoy it so much is because back in FIFA 21, I did the moments swaps pack (5 tokens) and got him. After initially seeing an Italian, centre-back naturally I was praying for Maldini. But there he was, the legend himself Nesta. He stayed in my team for about 600 games till the end of the year because he was unreal in game. So, I knew this year he'd be great as well, however I opted for his base version over the mid because of price and strength. And seriously he is a beast, nothing gets past him, his slide tackles are cleaner then any other card he just takes the opponent out wins it back and gets up. His pace is good but nothing incredible, I've applied shadow on him so it should be 80 pace. He feels like 88 in game because of that unique body type. His strength is hard to describe with words. You could hold L2 with him forever and no matter how many people attempt to take it off, he's keeping it. His passing is actually pretty nice and his dribbling is decent (definitely doesn't feel like 36 agility).
