Player Review
96 - Futties Premium SBC
Honestly, I expected much more from this this daddy of a card.
He looks like a TOTS Akinfenwa in defence with decent jockey speed but he really likes to avoid playing on the side of possession, I noticed he swaps sides alot with my Varane which is kind of a let down since I wanted to make use of his 5* weakfoot on the left side. (I would imagine him to be better in a 5 back but im not a RAT so stop playing 5 back @everyone)
Physically he is great, works very well with his body type and doesn't often get shrugged off the ball or fall over when facing a lengthy such as Cech or Tammy.
He has great tackling animations, possession based which was quite positive.
I tried him 3 games on engine and 3 games on shadow chemstyle. The extra pace with shadow wasn't noticeable, nor were to the defence abilities. I would recommend an engine chemstyle to help out in the turn of possession.
If your team doesn't require any extra links, or you have a Sadio Mane hanging about, its not a bad option to complete this SBC, the value is justified.
