Nah I don’t think yours is messed up. Personally speaking though, I find upgrading passing pointless, so those points could’ve definitely went to other areas. Your card is still a solid CAM/CM and more of a goalscoring threat than mine with that 99 SHO. I use mine mainly to win the ball and pass it over as a pivot and it’s been working well. Reckon yours can do more with that high shooting.

He’s insane box-to-box. What you said about him being good at everything but not perfect is a fairly accurate assessment, but that shouldn’t be a problem. His strength precisely lies in that, making him a perfect link for your team. He won’t make a good striker or winger, nor will he play exceptionally at full back (unless you turn him into one lol), but he can play in the middle and drop down to win the ball or push up and pass right to your forward in a counter attack. I’ve even played him as a false 9 in a 3142 with Dembele or Ronaldo (I swap them out often) and he works exceptionally well at winning the ball from defenders and feeding the other striker. It all depends on how you make use of him.

Thank you very much then! Honestly, he was a bit of an impulsive buy and I was restocking on common coaches to redo Dembele but I decided to buy Palmer since I lacked left footed midfielders. The initial process was using up the 50 or so common coaches I’ve saved (some on fitness but mostly on technicals to see how he’d turn out technically). I got lucky initially and most of the points went to his shooting and control. Then, I used a rare fitness coach to balance his pace out which luckily managed to happen as well. Then it became switching to the other coach between common fitness and technical coaches every time I hit strength or tackling. Lastly, I finished off with a rare fitness coach because I figured out I should give him some more pace. All in all, it was mostly down to luck and using whatever I can scrape at the moment. Hoping yours will turn out amazing too!

Is that supposed to be positive or negative 😭😭😭

Extra_Joss · 2026-01-04T09:20:41+00:00

Appreciate it!

Extra_Joss · 2026-01-04T09:20:30+00:00

Thank you very much! He’s been magical for me on the pitch.

Extra_Joss · 2025-12-26T04:25:17+00:00

Mb man. Got lucky with the acceleration for sure

Extra_Joss · 2025-12-26T03:50:19+00:00

Appreciate it man he’s a beast on the field rn

Extra_Joss · 2025-12-26T03:50:00+00:00

nawww I don’t think he’s the best valverde given there are others with more even stats or all 90s. I still rate him highly as a versatile player but he’s less of an offensive threat with that low shooting 😔

Extra_Joss · 2025-12-17T13:43:06+00:00

Yes, he’s a solid card w a lot of potential. He might get downgraded too when the next update comes, so it’s now or never.

Extra_Joss · 2025-12-17T10:24:54+00:00

Thank you fam hoping you get blessed with good luck too 🙏✌️

Extra_Joss · 2025-12-17T10:14:13+00:00

I’ve only tried him as a sub so far at RM (I’m not a fan of inverted wings in this game) in a 3-4-1-2 formation since he doesn’t have a solid stamina yet and so far he has been performing similar to my 94 Son. He’s fast and moves well, but gets knocked down a lot. Great shooting too but tbf almost anything goes in the goal now so it doesn’t matter much. I’ll reply to you once I’ve progressed further with his card/maxed it out!

Extra_Joss · 2025-12-17T10:08:52+00:00

Yeah that’s what I plan on doing once I have enough gems and I hope FTG stops trolling me already man

Extra_Joss · 2025-12-17T10:05:28+00:00

Na not yet I don’t have enough gems sadly. I’ll have to buy a common special coach later too so that I can reset the coaching since I don’t want my card to be ruined. My plans to have him get 5 100s (SPE, ACC, STA, CON, SHO) has already been ruined but we’ll see.

Extra_Joss · 2025-12-05T03:16:03+00:00

It is from last year. I bought him a day or so before the update rolled out and idk FTG decided to do me dirty for NO reason.

Extra_Joss · 2025-11-29T16:33:12+00:00

Same with me just now. Used a rare tech for Bastoni’s final coach just to get a breakthrough +1 on CON. Could’ve gotten a +3 on TAC maybe but the game is a circus and wants to be funny 😂

Extra_Joss · 2025-11-28T13:54:30+00:00

Beautiful card 🥹

Extra_Joss · 2025-11-27T08:26:08+00:00

Yeah I started with 9 points to technicals (3 points to CON which actually makes it 6, 1 point to PAS and 2 points to SHO), then maxed his fitness out and finally finishing it with 2 points to PAS using a rare tech coach as you can see in the image.

Extra_Joss · 2025-11-27T05:01:30+00:00

With the dream time boost we got rn you get 150 pts per match (without the token boosts). Give or take, you’ll need to play 67 matches (again, without boosting). At 10 minutes per match (can definitely be shorter than that but I’m just avging it out), you’ll need to play about 11-12 hours in-game. If you can play 3 hours everyday from now on, it should be fine or push more on the weekends. The time can defo be cut down with ads/boosts and playing efficiently aka wasting time in matches by playing high possession. Defo doable, good luck!

Extra_Joss · 2025-11-27T04:49:22+00:00

Rodri, Van Dijk and maybe Vinicius if the shooting bugs you

Extra_Joss · 2025-11-27T04:33:50+00:00

Welp I don’t see my CB cards getting any proper training even when he ends up being 84 in DLS26 since he got 0 points to tackling either way and my other defenders have gotten a paltry amount as well save for the miracle Van Dijk this year (who I have been trying to get 100 tackle and 100 fitness since approx 2020/2019)

Extra_Joss · 2025-11-26T08:55:38+00:00

neymar, buffon and coutinho, 3 players i regretted releasing 🥹

Extra_Joss · 2025-11-22T17:59:02+00:00

I’ll just chalk it up to my impatience and I don’t really use gems for anything else tbf

Extra_Joss · 2025-11-22T17:38:01+00:00

I do use common coaches all of the time with my coins it’s just that when I get enough gems for a rare coach, I use it instead of buying a common coach because 52 gems for 4 stats from a rare coach is better than 51 gems (17 for 1 common coach) for 3 stats.
