Where do I even begin... the man, the myth, the legend... he is... he is... insane, AGAIN.
After using Balotelli for a couple of years (every year since FIFA 13) and having previous YouTube videos about the guy I can safely say that I understand the player in game. I know exactly what his pros and cons are, what u can expect from him or what you shouldn't do.
As a Balo fan you can imagine I was excited when I saw this card. His major con used to be dribbling previous years, well that problem is solved with this card!
Enjoy the YouTube link is an old video in which I played with Balo in FIFA 22 with his 76 rated card :)
DRIBBLING - The best there is this year. Of course you expect it to be good because he has 99 dribbling, but with his body type it's always a surprise how it will turn out. He literally glides past people and also build with the 5* skills he is a deadly weapon in your team. He pulls every skill move with ease and shields the ball with his strength. With Trickster+ you humiliate every opponent and it just fits Balotelli perfectly as he is this type of player in real life.
PACE - He feels way faster than 85. This is due his dribbling, he's silky smooth while running. With high/low workrates he accelerates so well and with the hunter chem style it's perfect. Also the quickstep trait is really useful here and you can feel him accelerate fast.
SHOOTING - It's good! Not perfect but good! I'm not a really great finisher in the past FIFA's but there's one thing that I master, if I say so myself, and that part of shooting is longshots! Just like previous years he just has that unique way of shooting especially with longshots. His longshots are like that freekick from Roberto Carlos against France. The ball curves away from the goal and then bends back to hit it just inside the post, unstoppable. But 1v1's are not his best changes to score a goal. Try to avoid shooting with finesse or trivela as (for me) these often just went through the middle of the goal. Just press circle and get used to how much power you need to use for a certain distance and if you manage that you will score lots of goals. Also his chip shots are really good! I found the best way to chip is when the goalkeeper is running towards Balo and just tap circle really quick for a small chip over the goalkeeper, these worked perfect for me. Heading is great! Corners are a weapon with him in your team.
PHYSICAL - You expect him to be strong and of course he is! 92 Strength is great and every defender has a hard time against him. I've seen him literally throw the likes of Virgil van Dijk, Lucio and Maldini on the ground. His aggression feels like 95 at least, he clashes in every duel. His stamina is okay, You can play 90 mins if you let him stay forward and not defend with him at all. Jumping is good, I have to admit it didn't feel like 85 for me more like 70 but because of his height and strength he will win most of the time.
STAMINA - Not the best also not the worst. Don't expect him to be running all the time.
PASSING - I wouldn't say it's a con to be fair, but I put it in this section because he's not near "Kane or Benzema level" kind of striker with passing. Not that he has to be like that but I had to put it somewhere.
