88 - TOTY Honourable Ment
5.0
The Ivory Caustic Yaya
By REEMZ15, 10-02-2023

Hello and welcome to a review on this new 88 rated TOTY Honourable Mentions Seko Fofana.


Squad used below:

https://www.futbin.com//23/squad/3397673


I applied the SHADOW chem style on Fofana and started my weekly Division Rivals grind. I used Fofana as a central CDM in a 4-1-2-1-2(2) formation or as the central CM with "stay back while attacking" instructions in a 4-3-1-2. Fofana is clearly the best CDM that I've tried this year. He's much stronger than someone like Kanté, Bennacer or Bellegarde. And he's much faster than someone like Yaya Touré, Casemiro, Milinkovic- Savic or Márquez. He's better at dribbling and passing compared to someone like Zakaria, Kessié or Sissoko.


PACE(9/10):

I think that Fofana is a clear 9 in pace. He's not slow by any meaning however he is not as fast as someone like Bellegarde. Keep in mind that his pace is 9 for a CDM/CM and not for a wide player.


SHOOTING(6/10):

His shooting is good for a CDM however there are a bigger chance of getting a goal if you pass the ball with Seko instead of taking a shot with him.


PASSING(10/10 for a CDM, 9/10 for CM):

His passing as a CDM is enough however his over the top through balls are not that good. If you wan't to use him as a CM you have to keep it simple with him. 89 Short passing, 84 Long passing and 86 Vision is very solid. His crossing and free kicks ain't good however you don't cross with your CDM and you will probably have better free kick takers by now.


DRIBBLING(9/10):

I'm actually very surprised by his dribbling. He keeps the ball close to his feet and he can run fast with the ball without loosing it. Although his 74 Agility and 72 Balance ain't convincing, his turns are actually pretty quick.


DEFENDING(10/10):

His defending is crazy good and he snatches the ball from anyone. His interceptions are great and his tackles are wonderful. He's always at the right place in defense. His defending feels like more than 84.


PHYSICALITY(10/10):

Do I have to tell you that Fofana is a physical monster!? His 93 Strength combined with 85 Aggression, 88 Reactions, 88 Composure, 84 Pace and his defending makes him impassable. 97 Stamina is also amazing and makes him able to run a whole match.

-Everything above.

-Price.

-4*4* and High/High.

-He has "Leadership" trait, so he is Mr. Passion.

-He's Ligue 1. Ivory Coast has some good players like Yaya, Bailly WW, Drogba, Kessié and maybe Pépé, Zaha and Singo. We might get a better Openda card and then we don't need the nation link.

He's to cheap. You are going to match up against him in WL.

The best Ivory Coast players are really expensive, some are expired SBC's and the cheap ones are probably sh*t.

The Goat
By Superstar7, 12-02-2023

I just had to write a review for him hes absolutely insane. ive recently packed a bunch of good midfielders and hes better than every single one. ive played him alongside pogba, gavi, marchisio, rabiot,etc and he steals the show from everyone he is the best cdm ive had this year exept maybe gold renato at the beginning of the year. i now use him alongside pogba in a 4222 and hes soooo clear of pogba. he plays with so much passion he is everywhere jumps to get the ball even when the ball is rly far away he just slide tackles and intercepts the ball without me doing anything. hes also rly fast and insane physically and ive had no problem with passing or dribbling.

everything

pace

interceptions

strength

defending

links
