I used 2 swap players to get him and pleasently suprised how good he is. Currently use him as a super sub at the moment. Is anybody impressed with him?

    Glad to hear this, I'm about to pick him up for the same reasons. Tend to sub on someone to play striker most games.

    Yeah definelty worth picking him up. I was needing a striker as back up and he is unreal to use. Next one I want is Wendell now. So easy to do with only needing 2 swaps.

    Has all the good attributes.
    Might get him.
    Got 2 swap cards so far and I doubt id ever get to 7.
    The cards requiring 4 look a bit mehh to me.
    I think I might just get balde diao and wendell
    Both look like great additions.

    Yeah very true. Tbh if I did manage to get 7 I would get Insigne. He would fit into my team now

    Balde Diao is awesome indeed. Didn't expect him to be so good either.

    I'd say get Hendo & Balde... you can buy better left backs than Wendell for less than 10k.

    He looks decent but I think I'll hold on until the end of the promotion and see how many swap players I have. Sanchez would be preferable but also could be tough to get.

    @Pieman25

    Have you played with any of Sanchez cards in your team or Draft?

    He has to be one the most disappointing top player I've used in any FIFA (I've had his normal + special cards in multiple drafts)

    Something about him doesn't tick for me, I even get better results with Hazard who I always felt under performed too.

    Haven't used any of the Sanchez cards this year @sonnyfilth, he just looked like the shiniest toy out of the bunch haha. Appreciate the advice though, do you think it was down to the workrates?

    is there only a total of 11 cards available to get?

    as in the only ones that I can see me using would be Diao (super sub) and Sanchez...

    If only 11 cards are available in total I may as well get Diao now

    He does look a really nice card and I'd probs get him if not for wanting Ibra to complete my squads theme.

    I honestly think it was down to his height and not a high enough strength to offset how short he is (not sure if his balance/etc are low as well, but he definitely got bullied off the ball way too easily for my liking, he had to be put completely clean through to break away from the defenders)

    Even using someone as small Dybala felt like CR7 after using Sanchez lol

    Some thinking to do then before next week, Insigne was my other choice along with Koke. It would have been nice to have a cb option in there but I suppose they can only put so many choices in.

    He's awesome. Tall, fast strong. Good link up play too, I actually ended up using him as a CAM in 4222.

    True, but not many good Bundesliga options at LB. I got Wendell and he's been quite good on my Bundes team. Diao is next for me too though.
