Underrated hero?
BySnufflestheMitten27-10-2022

I packed him in the Hybrid Nations 50k pack and decided to insert him right into my starting lineup with the lengthy boost (next gen) and he was awful after swapping him to a shadow and moving him to LCB rather than right, he stepped up massively; the defensive boosts helped more than physical/passing. His AI can be aggressive but not to the point where he is woefully out of position; he just likes to step-up without the instruction active. Reads the game well, defends well, and his dribbling stats actually make him feel good, on-the-ball, when transitioning into attack. For 70-80k? He's a bargain at this stage of the game. His price will go down and that has to be acknowledged, but definitely a worthwhile player to try.

-Defensive awareness

-Dribbling for a CB

-Short-passing

-Near post heading is solid on corners

-100% going to drop in price when WC heroes drop

-Will likely provide 0 links in most teams.

-Physicals aren't elite.

Overall this is one of the best all around CB's you can buy, especially in the Prem. My favorite thing about this card is the archetype flexibility he provides. He provides good enough ratings to be your more offensively aggressive CB, or he be chemed up to a more lock down defending CB. Personally I use him ba...

A Solid Legend
took a time year of FUT and returned this year on pc since next gen is available. I was curious to try out some legends, Carvalho is the first one and I can say that he is a beast in game. been using him with shadow chem style and he has been bullying the likes of haaland, nunez, etc... catches up to fast attackers with ease and just knocks them away from the ball. pretty good performance from his value and fits to most hybri...
