87 - POTM Serie A SBC
4.5
87 POTM RAFAEL LEAO REVIEW - STILL INSANE
By MikeWasHere, 04-12-2022

The past few Champs runs have been exhausting. no more Motivation to play the game as every squad is pretty much the same. Mendy / Theo and Walker / Cancelo as the full backs, Koulibaly / VVD / Tomori / Militao running around as the defenders, It is pretty much easy to say Scoring goals against Balanced Oriented Players is getting Harder and Harder, Especially with the Auto Drop-Back. Although this guy was released a month ago, Coming in at around 200k, not hard to do with Fodda, But lets be honest, Nobody has fodda after the recent Black Friday Content rain.

After the first couple of days the guy was very disappointing. With an Architect chem style, playing as a "supporting" Striker to Haaland in a 4-4-2, Could Assist very easily and score when open, but his dribbling felt so HEAVY. He was insanely clunky in a way. But after the ACCELE-RATE update, EVERYTHING CHANGED.

* SPEED - at first this guy felt like a freakin' truck. Took 8 minutes to even start moving, but when Controlled running style got buffed, i switched his chem style to Deadeye and the guy felt like a

speedster.


* STRENGTH - always felt strong. coming in with 85 Strength, it was always a pro, as he had an easier time guarding the ball while in the box.


* SHOOTING - Scores goals every game it seems like. a stat that i thought of as a con at first, 84 finishing for a Striker? but when i was able to change his chem style to deadeye, the guy rarely misses.


* PASSING - Also a thing i thought of as a con at first, but he rarely gets intercepted when making that extra pass in the box. Amazing passer from close, and not bad from afar.


WEAK FOOT - 4 star weak is just enough in this game to see a major improvement in Shooting, Passing, Defending... Always a pro.

BODY IN GAME - The con that in my opinion, Stops him from being a great Dribbler like Neymar and Vini, Despite having Incredible Dribbling stats.


BALANCE & AGILITY - At times can feel like a truck. I admit it. sometimes feels like he can't really move well, Which is a result of his Big Body Type + Pretty Low Agility for a winger/striker.


SKILLS - Nothing Really to say here, How the hell does this guy not have 5* Skills?

Fast and Clinical Finisher

So after the last update i decided to try rafa leao inform.First few games with him were hard, because his card doesnt feel like 87 Dribbling at all. After the first few games (which i lost) i swiched my tactics and played him as a Striker instead (i played him on the wing before). That was the point where he turned into a madman. His dribbling in my eyes is still terrible, but his pace was incredible. You can...

Rafael Leao (The through ball goat)

Rafael Leao has been nothing but wonders for my team. Before I bought him, I was using rashford at LW for about a week or two and I can easily say that the difference between rashford at LW and Leao at LW is big. Although their stats are almost the same, leao seems to do much better with long balls, receiving passes into defenders and best of all, RUNNING.
