FIFA 19 Player Review

5.0

Best RB i've used

By Shreddybrek, 21-02-2019

For a start being a Wolves fan i initally brought Doherty for that reason alone. Using a premier league hybrid squad currently he sits next to Flashback David Luiz, Future Stars Militao and Grimaldo. I start with a 4-2-3-1 for link purposes with SBC Doucore, Prime Nakata, FUTMas De Bruyne Inform Hazard and POTM Rashford and IF Jota(again being a wolves fan but he is a beast and has stuck in too). I consistently hit between Elite 2 to Gold 1 on Futchamps and I'm in Division 2 rivals. I've used many rightbacks Walker, Flashback Alves and inform Lala to name a few but Doherty IS THE BEST RIGHTBACK i've used. The guy is a unit! I find alot of people try to attack down his side expecting him to be the weak link in my defence but nothing gets past him. His strong enough to deal with more physical wingers and he may not be the quickest but he has enough pace to get back and cover spaces but his positioning and interceptions are that good he rarely needs to chase back. A lot of the way i play is utilizing my full backs in an attacking sense. If you tend to stick your full backs on Stay back whilst attacking, SIGN HIM NOW! He will not let you down as defensively his a rock, i currently use anchor on him as well. Also with the OP crosses after the patch his ideal for defending crosses at the far post due to his size and heading ability. If like me you like to use your fullbacks going forward then again you'll love this card his stamina is insane. His constantly up and down the pitch for 90 minutes and his runs just seem to be perfect always arriving on the overlap at the right time and has scored me a few goals late on doing so. His strong enough to hold off other defenders and his dribbling although sometimes feels abit clumsy due to his size actually feels really nice to use. In 68 games for me he has 12 goals and 32 assists which is a good turn around for a right back i feel.

Solid

Could have a bit more pace

Sometimes sluggish dribbling with the ball

Perhaps value for an 83 but i have to say i think for the player you get its worth it

If god was irish

After getting him in the guaranteed pl TOTS sbc I felt kind of upset, but god, was I wrong! Considering that before him my right back spot was covered first by 89 OTW Cancelo and then by 87 IF Lala, I must recognize that he's 100 times superior to both of them; he's fast, strong, and actually quite tall as well, all qualities which make him the best right back in the game, end of discussion.

Much better than you think

-Read carefully his stats; weight 89kgs, with anchor chem style, 94 agression, 89 strenght, 95 marking, 98 standing tackle. -Now imagine what it means.-Yes, it doesnt matter who is the attacker, if Doherty is close to him, the ball is yours.-As an addition, rest of stats really helps. 99 jumping with his physical condition is a secure value defending corner kicks, Good passing, good ball control, good ...

Surprisingly good.

I packed him in the guaranteed sbc and was very disappointed. so much so i didn't feel like playing fifa very much this week. eventually i got over it and decided to try him out and he wasn't as terrible as people made it seem. sure he isn't the best. TAA is probably better but for the rating and price of this card he hasn't let me down once in 20 games. admittedly i am yet to play weekend league with him so it could all ch...
