good, but not for that price

Hello! You may have stumbled across this majestic looking near Gullit-Gang card and let me tell you: he isn´t worth 120k.

I play him as my LCM in a 433(4) ingame with a shadow.

The problem with reviewing this man is that he isn´t even bad or godlike, no. He is bang average and max. solid. Therefore i struggled a bit sorting which abilities are good and which are bad.

In comparison: his RCM partner is Goretzka, a quite similar card, and he is a lot more fun to play, better and more reliable + he costs maybe 10/15% of what Gravenberch´s price is (at the time of the review, beginning of January)

Consistency (I guess?): plays every game solid, kinda does the job of sweeping up and getting the ball to the attackers. When EA doesn´t want me to lose in the most annoying way by turning all my players into toddlers on drugs, he feels quite well in midfield
Dribbling: the 88 dribbling are definetly visible and that´s what i like about him. his good dribbling gets him out of pressure situations more easily than others could
Physicality: not one of his best stats on card, but his height helps enormously when winning duels or shielding the ball. i guess the shadow chem style adds the needed DEF boost
defesnive work ingame: most often the one that stays back during an attack

his playmaking ability: once every few times, a pass finds an attacker in a good position, but thats too rarely. Also not the one you should be looking for when searching for an attacking or playmaking CM
The price: a fair price would be, i´d say maybe 90k, because i dont think he is worth more than 100k. I expected him to be more special (?) and more reliable after spending my big RTG bucks on him. he slots into my team very well (thanks to the god awful VDS base icon).
Like already mentioned: he isnt the player you are expecting after seeing the stats and that isnt meant really in a positive way.
