Why you should do this SBC:Nice Pace boost compared to base cardImproved Dribbling, Interceptions and Stamina as wellH/H instead of M/HNgolo Kanté is a wonderful player/human beingWhy you should consider skipping this SBC:Important downgrades: Defensive Awareness, Strength and AggressionSticks with his 3*WF 2*SMThis is an interesting card that is not that much different from his base. However, i'm not sure if it's really worth it to spend around 300k on this SBC or get his tradeable base card.If you have a lot of untradeable fodders, then go for this SBC, otherwise skip it!
Why you should do this SBC: Insane PaceGreat Physical statsGood Reactions, Dribbling and ComposureDecent Shooting4*SMOutside Foot Shot and Solid Player traitsWhy you should skip this SBC: 2*WF for a ST is terribleBelow average BalanceNeeds a Finishing, Passing, AND Balance boost at the same time --> no chemstyle can do thatRequirements are terribleInteresting boosts compared to Inaki's base card, that's a fact. However, considering how stupid the requirements are, I don't see this SBC as a good deal. Unless you love Inaki, or you have a lot of fodders, you should skip this SBC.
Why you should do this SBC:- Great overall Dribbling and Passing- Good Shooting- Good enough Pace (just needs a Chemstyle)- 4*4*, H/M- He is THICC- Stamina is okay- Good linking options (vive la France hehe)Why you should consider skipping this SBC:- The required 86 rated squad (?)- Alternatives ? (Depay, Griezmann)For me, this is a good SBC card. Complete, useful in different positions (CAM,ST, RW). The only issue i have would be the 86 rated squad, but even that ain't that bad.You can do this SBC if you need a new French/La Liga CAM!
That's why i put "(?)", some people might find this as a con, others won't
Why you should do this SBC: Great Physical statsGood overall DefendingAerial threat: good Heading stats, Power Header traitGood Reactions and ComposureM/HNice Pace upgrade compared to his base cardLive card: could get upgradedLinkability is okayWhy you should consider skipping this SBC: His Passing is "meh" '(for now)3*WF (?)Available Serie A options : Koulibaly, SkriniarCompared to the POTM Koulibaly SBC, this looks like a better deal for Serie A teams. With an upgrade or 2 he might be more solid.If you have useless fodders, if you love Juv.. Piemonte Calcio, then go for it!
Why you should do this SBC:Great overall Passing qualityExcellent Stamina4*4*, H/MOutside foot shot and Flair traitsDecent Defending... for a CAM Good Positioning/FinishingInteresting for Bundes/German squadsGood overall Dribbling...Why you should consider skipping this SBC: .... but TERRIBLE Reactions (he may feel "slower" in his movements)Terrible StrengthLow Sprint speed compared to his AccelerationInteresting card with some good stats, plus the Bundes doesn't have a lot of CAM options as well (Nkunku, Sabitzer(?)).You can do this SBC if you need to get rid of some fodders!
Yup ! Had a long time break because of work matters, and the fact that, somehow, FUTBIN didn't let me post any small review since a few months :neutral_face:
He's currently in my squad. I've also tried Diego Carlos, Skrinar, De Ligt, Ramos, but Kounde has been by far the most solid CB among these. Maybe EA will release a better CB, but for now he won't get benched anytime soon!
Why you should do this SBC: Good overall Defending, just needs a chem styleGood Pace for a CBDecent Ball control... for a CBDecent Reactions, Passing and Physical stats....Linking options are decentWhy you should skip this SBC : ... except for Stamina maybeTerrible workrates for a CB Expensive compared to one good and tradeable alternative : Jules Koundé First Flashback SBC of this FIFA, but another dissapointment from EA, especially when it comes to the player's choice, the boosts, and the requirements. Unless you love Sam Umtiti, STAY AWAY FROM THIS SBC.
