Manchester City and Germany’s engine in the midfield, the man who makes the midfield tick, İlkay Gündoğan has his Showdown SBC available in FIFA Ultimate Team now!
The former Borussia Dortmund player has a very expensive SBC, coming in at a price of 683K coins and needs 4 segments to unlock the card.
The card has some characteristics such as:
- 88 Acceleration and 83 Sprint Speed even with a Controlled AcceleRATE type which makes him fairly quick in midfield
- Very good Shooting stats with 89 Positioning, 87 Finishing, 85 Shot Power and 87 Long Shots
- 91 Vision, 93 Short Passing, 90 Long Passing and 91 Curve make him an elite distributor of the ball
- 86 Agility, 84 Balance, 90 Reactions, 95 Ball Control, 89 Dribbling and 91 Composure make him very solid on the ball
- Good Defending stats for a midfielder with 84 Interceptions, 86 Defensive Awareness and 84 Standing Tackle
- Good Physicals with 85 Stamina, 84 Strength and 81 Aggression
- 4-Star Skill Moves and 4-Star Weak Foot Combination
- High/Medium workrates are good for a balanced or box-to-box CM
His ideal position in game will be as a balanced CM in a 3-man midfield or the secondary CDM in a 2-man midfield.
He has a similar player profile to UCL Road to the Final Leon Goretzka.
There a few drawbacks to the card including:
- 70 Jumping and 56 Heading Accuracy despite his height make him a poor aerial presence which might be felt while defending
- He has the Average body type and despite his high dribbling he will feel clunky in game
What Chemistry Style to use for Showdown İlkay Gündoğan?
The suggested Chemistry Style for Showdown İlkay Gündoğan is: SHADOW. The +8 boost in Pace and the +7 boost in defending including the +15 boost in Sliding Tackle allow him to boss that Box-to-Box midfielder role.
Showdown İlkay Gündoğan: Complete or Yeet?
The card is very good and Manchester City have a good chance of winning at home against Arsenal which will give him a +2 upgrade. Despite that, the card is heavily overpriced and with only 3 days to complete the SBC with close alternatives being cheaper this SBC is not worth it. My verdict: YEET!
