Toni Kroos

    4.5
    5 star skill moves De Bruyne
    ByClassOnGrass4005-01-2023

    If this card was on the market he would easily be over 500k in my humble opinion, one of the best value SBCs this year if not the best. Used him for awhile as a get forward CM but switched him to deep-lying playmaker who can go forward in a 4-2-3-1 and he's been incredible. Passing and long shots are second to none for non-icon CM's and 5* 5* just puts the cherry on top. Doesn't have high agility or balance but his Reactions (94), Ball Control (92), Composure (92), and 5 star skill moves have gotten me out of countless tight situations and he can play inch perfect passes with people draped over him.


    The one quip I have with him is his less than stellar defending and presence. He tends to get turned inside out by quick players and has very low aggression and jumping. His interceptions are incredible but playing against people who like to strafe dribble a lot he is a liability. Much better utilized as a get forward or free roaming midfielder.


    Overall very worth the 260k price tag especially with all the fodder being thrown around at the moment. A very unique player and will not let you down going forward

    • Passing is a dream
    • Solid dribbling but 5* skill moves makes it more than just solid
    • Incredible long shots
    • Insane interceptions
    • Feels faster on 80 pace, especially if he gets running down the wing
    • 5* 5* combo makes him the perfect box to box CM - almost De Bruyne-esque
    • Real Madrid links
    • Sometimes feels invisible on the pitch just meandering around
    • Not a good defender against people who dribble a lot, will get turned inside out
    • 36 jumping and 67 aggression makes winning headers on over the top balls or goal kicks a nightmare
    • For some reason taking corners with him is a nightmare

    The Balance I was looking for!
    Toni Kroos is one of the players that never quite shines in FIFA like he does in real life. However, every few months or years EA releases a Kroos card that at least makes me look at it in an attempt to make Kroos one of the players on my own team that does not disappoint in game. This year, Winter Wildcards has been a good year for my squad. While I haven't been able to afford WW Mendy quite yet, I did get my hands on Kroos ...

    A Top 5 CDM
    Get this card... like seriously, the fact he is an objective is absolutely nuts.This card was handcrafted by the FIFA gods to play as the central CDM of a 4321 formation. The ability to create space with the 5* skills is a complete game changer. He started off pretty much every goal I scored this weekend league. The closest player to him I can think of is Frenkie De Jong (and he doesn't have the skills). I have no doubts he w...

    King Toni
    Use him since day one cause I got him untradeable. Finally I like him so much that I build my team around him. My luck was that I pulled Rudiger RTTK untradeable also. He is not fast, but fast enough to get the place to play a deadly pass or just a pass to a player who is in a better position. You won`t win a race with him but that is not that what he is supposed for. I am on old gen and use architect on him. His pace is low...
