Who? Just got FUTTIES Walker, but I've been rather underwhelmed... I almost feel like TOTSM Mbabu was better

    Mbabu probably is the best ive used purely defensively. Best defensive outside back imo and ive used many of the top ones.

    Not the biggest or fastest guy. He seems better as a balanced fullback. Idk his stats don't overly impress me as a pure defensive option (H/L WR too)

    Mbabu seems really dominant tbh. Best I've used from a defensive standpoint. Have you used either of TOTS Dumfries or Da Costa?

    Da Costa probably.

    But sold him and did walker not much in them to be fair.

    Not price difference anyway considering walker cost me 50k and I got 400k for da costa on PC.

    i've used TOTS Dumfries. Reminds me of Ferland Mendy on the R side. Strong with headers. But Mendy gets me more goals at corners

    I use Da Costa on Balanced and he is incredible on both ends. I have untradable Tots Lala and Cancelo but prefer Da Costa. He is like a faster RB version of Vieira with his huge frame.

    I used Prime Zanetti for ages as a good defensive rightback. If you just want your fullback to sit deep and rarely go forward, he's ideal. His main downside is poor jumping

    I've swapped to TOTS Dumfries now. Suits my game better and is great in the air, but gets caught out of position more.

    I had TOTS da Costa, he was good but was 3rd choice, as I rotate TOTS Lala and Cancelo....

    Cancelo is the best from the 3 for me

    I gotta agree. Mbabu felt the best ive used so far. Problem is i just put him in the Walker sbc....walker has been disappointing so far.

    I’ve never felt the need to upgrade Carniball Yedlin. Rarely lets me down.

    Yeah, from the right backs I've used out of CB Yedlin, TOTSM Mbabu, TOTS Cancelo, FUTTIES Walker, and TOTS TAA, I feel like CB Yeldin and TOTS Mbabu are my top two from a pure defensive standpoint. The weird thing with Yedlin is that despite being 5'8", I don't recall him ever losing a header. I guess it's his mad ups (maxed jumping with Anchor).

    Cant recall the last time I played a game where the opponents full backs even came over the halfway line. Every time I broke up an attack and countered, there was a back 6 in place with the CDMs too.

    I like to use my RB/LB to get on, am using TOTS Dumfries and TOTS Mendy and have no issues with either attacking or defending. Dumfries is also a great target on attacking corners, which Mendy takes from the right side too.

    with Fast Buildup, the fullbacks get up too much on Balanced. Even on "stay back" they still get forward on occasion.

    I've used all of them and Walker is the best.

    What I meant was. I'ts July. why think about defensive FBs when you can involve you FBs in the attack and try to enjoy some attacking football.

    I don't use fast build up. but when I tried it. I didn't like it. not a lot of passing options under pressure. but I understand your point.
