Player Review
86 - ShowDown SBC
Hopped back on FUT after about a month and a half away from it and did this SBC because I had a good amount of fodder in the club and I figured it'd be fun to try some of the new players. I am VERY happy I did. I plugged him in alongside POTM Moise Kean in a 4-2-2-2 to try and do some of the FUT CENTURIONS BERARDI objectives. I didn't have many Serie A players in the club so I was playing him at only 1/3 chemistry with a Marksman chem style equipped.
After only two games I built a team around him so he would be on max chem because he is a WEAPON. (Also wanted to try the new Kent card with him)
The main thing I noticed once he was 3/3 chem straight away was that he pressed more effectively than any other card I have used this year. Won the ball back multiple times in the opponents half and won most if not all 50/50 tackles with defenders. The pace combined with his height and strength made it so easy to get possession back quickly.
Second, his high ball control and dribbling when going at defenders/cutting in towards the box for a shot a pretty simple move. I don't use skill moves ever (never really learned) and I felt like I was just because of how tightly you can move around when he has the ball.
Finally, his scoring ability is unreal. I mean the guy was heading the ball in over Van Dijk on corners. I scored from outside the box, close-range after beating the CBs, and for whatever reason, this guy was clear in on goal with plenty of space for a through ball minimum 5 times a game.
- Tall
- Fast
- Physical
- Pressing ability
- the guys simply got that DAWG mentality
- Low Stamina and when he gets tired he loses that pressing edge/get in behind pace so have to sub off around 70 minutes
- Passing isn't great so he needs to be played at ST not LW
- Bad Finesse shots from top/outside of the box so go for the Flair or normal shot
