For those who have him, I'm curious about a few things:
What do you generally use him like (using his acceleration or dribbling in the box)?
Who do you usually pair him with (like with a tall pivot CF or with another fast nimble striker)?
Where do you usually play him (lone cf or SS or paired CF)?
First time posting, these are 4 cards that I've used for abt 25-30 games and found really enjoyable. Wrote a few words abt each of em. Purely based on in-game feel, their stats are way off from the Top 10 cards unfortunately. If you own these cards or similar cards, give em a go once.
● Joan Garcia :
While the stats are pretty decent for a potw card, his in-game performance punches way above its weight. Good shotstopper with a decent player model , he always seems to save those long shots and his positioning is really good too, especially now since gk 1v1 has been buffed in the new engine. He's also got the Low Punt skill (essential for me personally). Overall, most matches had good performances from him.
● Ryan Gravenberch :
The 190cm Dutchman provides a good balance between attack and defence (especially since this was a outside the box thundercvnt card). With 95 stamina, he's good for the new engine and he's also got good passing with 90 low pass. Because of his good dribbling stats, he's also pretty easy to turn and shoot/ use DT shoot or go across a defender and thread a pass to a forward. While he does have additional shooting skills, his finishing is a hit or miss (one or two long shots don't hurt once a while).
● Mickey VDV :
My favourite potw card, this guy is just straight up insane to use. I found the best value out of him at LB where his 90 physical and good pace is utilised best (can be used as his default CB pos, good there too) This was the solo goal card so he's got 88 dribbling (mad stuff) and 75 on finishing. He's also defensively robust with all def stats at 87+. His jumping stats may be shit but in-game he's adequately aerially strong because of his 193cm height. Just hits that 90 stamina mark too.. He also has double touch level 1. Never misses when he's on good form.
● Bruno Fernandes :
The last person I expected to be this nimble on the ball, as I hadn't used any of his cards before, he is really fun to use. Good ball carrying stats, good passing, decent finishing, I found his best value at AMF. B2B card with 92 stamina is not too shabby. His pace is mid af but since he's always available for passing opportunities (or even shooting with 84 finishing and 87 curl), I didn't really feel the lack of pace in-game. Honestly, in the final third he was just astonishing to use. Good ball treatment and ✨️Marseille turn ✨️ meant lots of spin n shoots. He's also got long range shooting and fighting spirit so a good option for taking outside the box thundercvnts.
Almost always on good form since he's having a banger season.
