88 - Flashback SBC
Have him lined up with Koulibaly 91, replaced Lucio with Smalling just for testing purposes.
After 40 games, Lucio is still better (which is expected).
This card is definitely S tier but not in the top 8 bracket, sometimes his AI makes mistakes.
On a few occasions he put players onside while the rest of the backline is on offside trap, same goes for driven passes to the box to the the attacker.
Manual defending is ok as long as you don't strafe too much with him and take sharp turns. You will feel the agility/balance on this card.
He does offer length, can keep up with fast players and does have the crazy tackling animations which is very important for a CB.
All in all, good value for coins and easy links.
- Tall
- Strong
- Cheap, good value for money
- Easy links
- Average jockeying when manual defending, sometimes a bit too slow
- You notice the base interception being under 90 and the defensive awareness as well
