88 - Winter Wildcards
I thought he would be good. I gave him a genuine try with 43 games and the simple truth is he is just not good. It boils down to the fact his animations are terrible.
It seems as though in Fifa, each card has it's own uniqueness more or less and this card and probably his base card, have terrible animations. My guess is that his massive 6'8"/199cm frame wasn't taken into account when they designed this game and the animations don't fit the frame size. This is speculation on my part, so take it as you will.
I will give it to him though, he is fast, and catches people really quick. If you anticipate correctly you can cheese your opponents chances by catching them off-guard with the speed. The thing is however, that if you play against decent opponents, after a couple times of being rushed, they will adapt the speed and the surprise factor is no longer a thing. In situations where the opponent attacker takes a slightly heavy touch, from my experience, Donnarumma and Courtois have never had issues catching up in those situations.
Compared to the other two goalies I've used most this Fifa (Courtois and Donnarumma ), he is kilometers worse.
If you absolutely NEED a Seria A goalkeeper, I bet Maignan is better. I haven't tried Maignan, but, Savic is so bad I can't imagine he'd be worse.
Considering this a special GK Card that costs the same or more than a 4.5/5 GK, this card is a 1/5. Don't buy. If untradeable, use as fodder.
(If you're interested in the squad I used I ran 4231 in game w/OkochaCAM, & Di Maria/Verde LAM/RAM, Payet ST. I did sell the card when I determined he was not good, as I didn't anticipate to make a review for him, so I don't have proof of the 43 games with him, but trust, that I did in fact use this trash.)
FAST BOY
Terrible animations, lets in goals better keepers wouldn't
