I have my fingers crossed as well for that.
Just let him stay forward & he'll do fine for 90min, as a st. I've had him for over 60 games and his stamina didn't run out once at full time. If you go to extra time then its a problem, but in this fifa st's don't need much stamina so they can do 90 min no problem. I agree it isn't great though, but its not anything problematic unless you use him as a winger or cam.
He isn't i can tell you already by experience. I've bought him and didn't like at all.
"The biggest worry is how we have played a wide variety of games over the years, (CS:GO, Fortnite, COD, Battlefield, Dota, Rocket League, to name a few), and have very rarely ever suffered with "delay" or ping issues." In my opinion you cannot compare fps games such like Cod, Battlefield, Cs or even Fortnite (not fps game i know) to sport games, the way how you feel delay is completely different.In Fifa your player may do lot of things different when there is delay, taking bad touches, turning slowly, bad reactions etc. In fps games you only REALLY gonna see the delay when you shoot.
