Fastest LB on FIFA 23, apparently

Just watched a video. He looks an absolute bargain for 500k. Very direct and absolutely loves a tackle

 

[Boro4life]

I did think we lacked abit of pace actually pleased this guy and Sammy will amend this

 

[BoroPhil]

he passes the FM test. looks similar to Giles positionally as well, LWB/LW but can play LB

 

[newyddion]

Already like him more than Giles!

 

[Branca2]

Exciting! Giles may be an assist king but he's weak, slow and not a great defender. I think he'll get ruined at Luton in the Prem. I was hoping we were on the look out for a stronger more athletic option. We obviously want left back to be very forward thinking.

I like it that Bangura looks a little wild! A bit unpredictable going forward and no nonsense at the back ala Quedrue

 

[Maccarone]

Plan B obviously

 

[coluka]

That’ll be yet another player missing after Christmas if he comes.

I feel pretty pessimistic right this minute

 

[BillinghamLad]

It may be a blessing in disguise if we can get a LB who is a stronger defender but can also contribute to our attacking football. Would sacrifice the odd goal for a stronger defence that concedes less and is overall a tighter unit. The price quoted looks good also and may allow more budget for the CF we undoubtedly need!

Captain so will bring some leadership too.

Lead them to 25 defeats in 34 games

 

[coluka]

His team were relegated and conceded 69 goals in 34 games. I appreciate that says a lot about the team not him, but another player who is unproven in the Championship and could be anything

 

[bevoboro]

Plan B obviously

Not necessarily, sometimes in football a new plan A comes along.

 

[starplayer]

Looks like a left footed Dijksteel.

Absolutely does not ‍♂

 

[sambaDTR]

We should have kept Bola and saved ourselves £500,000.

 

[Paulh10]

Got a bit of adama traore about him strong,quick, dribbling ability.Got a good tackle in him bargain at that price.

Bola wasn’t good enough either, better than Coulson but miles away from what we need

 

[MVBoro]

Giles will be a big miss. Be interesting to see how we go about replacing him.

I assume by “good tackle”, you mean good at fouling? As I said in the other thread, he will give away a lot of free kicks, and get carded for many, if he’s attempting to tackle like he does numerous times in the YouTube video.
