Player Review
86 - OTW
Got this player from my preorder OTW pack and never really used him after the first few weeks until he got his upgrade to 86. Hasn't been a game changer but I always find myself going back to him at CDM because of his insane French and Real Madrid links and his overall consistency in game. Always performs as expected and his price has slashed from around 130k to around 50k after being put back into packs. The craziest part about this card is the value for coins, a live card that is performing well in real life and has the best links in the game should never be around 50k.
If he gets an inform or two I could definitely see this card rising quite a bit because he is actually usable in game and has the stats and body to be a solid CDM. The most surprising part of his gameplay is his passing which is absolutely incredible for a 50k CDM and his better than expected dribbling - nothing crazy but is actually usable.
I think this card is one of the best value for coins cards especially with the new WW Kroos SBC and the potential for him to be upgraded even higher with the new TOTW system with his next IF bumping him up to an 88.
- Price is insanely good for a live card with top tier links - see Phenoms Camavinga at 480k
- Amazing passing for stay back CDM
- Has an immense physical presence
- Dribbling is better than expected but can be clunky
- 88 composure and 88 reactions helps him get out of tight spaces and play long balls with people hanging off his back
- 3* 3* isn't ideal but not a dealbreaker especially as a cdm
- Not the fastest player but will definitely move faster than expected
- Dribbling is clunky because he is 6'2 with sub 80 agility and balance
