Xavi 94 Dreamchasers Icon - Player Review

Hey guys, time for another review. Todays player is midfield maestro Xavi Hernandez. I used him in Champs and Rivals. He played 22 games, scored 2 goals and made 16 assists.

The formation i used was 433(2). I mainly used Xavi with DLP++ Role, Playmaker++ was also used but i settled on DLP, as i think it fits him better.

Price:

He currently costs around 1.2 mil on the market. Pretty expensive, but i can tell you in advance, he is worth every penny:)

Pace(88):

Very solid. I had no issues with his pace, good off the mark, alright sprint speed. As a CM, thats completely fine. Was the slowest of my three midfielders tho.

Pace Rating: 8.4/10

Shooting(86):

I think i shot twice with him and scored twice:) Fun aside, is used him on the left CM spot, so i didnt really shot outside the box with him. He was the distributor and gullit was the man that banged them shots in. But when there was a chance to shoot, he took it good, but its not comparable with gullit for example. But goals scored where inside the box, havent scored a long shot.

Shooting Rating: 8.4/10

Passing(99):

I have nothing to say. Just one word: Perfect. Every Playstyle, three PS+, he is the best passer in the game.

Passing Rating: 10/10

Dribbling(94):

Silky smooth. Sadly only 4 star skills, but you dont really need it. Amazing close control, very reactive and agile. Even under pressure he can hold the ball, which is nice. Very very good dribbling for a CM.

Dribbling Rating: 9.5/10

Defending(84):

He is not the best at tackling, but he can do something else really good: intercepting. He literally reads the opponent. Xavi has won so many balls, its crazy. The other defending aspects are pretty average tho, i recommend to have a defensively strong midfielder next to him, or behind him(a cdm). Is heading ability is poor, rarely wins a header sadly.

Defending Rating: 8.5/10

Physical(87):

He can run for days. 97 Stamina with relentless, very good. His strength is alright, he is not the tallest, so he can get bodied. One thing that surprised me, was his aggression. He was good at standing on the opponents feet. With that is teammates had an easy time getting the ball. Again tho, aerial ability not great.

Physical Rating: 8.2/10

Summary: Overall Rating 9.4/10

He is the best creative midfielder in the game. His passing is unmatched. Similar players would be TOTY Bonmati or Fut Birthday Gavi, but again, Xavi is unique and unmatched with his passing and style of play.

He is definetly worth it, i you have the coins, give him a shot, he is very fun to play.

Bit shorter Review than last time, but i hope it still helps you. Thanks for reading! Have a nice day:)
