Review

Pace - 88
He is very quick and agile, mainly because of his 93 Acceleration. Even though his sprint speed is an unimpressive 86, he is still very speedy and can easily sprint past defenders.
Pace Rating 9/10

Dribbling - 84
He is a good dribbler with 85 ball control. He has the traits, Flair and Speed Dribbler which makes him great at changing direction quickly, this is also helped by his 4* skills.
Dribbling Rating 8/10

Shooting - 84
His shots are like rockets! Having 89 Shot Power, 89 Finishing, 91 Curve and 86 Long Shots really helps to make him great at scoring from any distance or angle. He can beat the greatest keepers with his powerful, accurate shots that fly into the top corner every time.
Shooting Rating 9/10

Defending - 50
Defending isn't important for a LW so his low stats are not a problem.
Defending Rating 5/10

Passing - 79
His passing was good, nothing spectacular but he could find his man consistently. He has 76 Long Passing and 82 Short Passing so he can play good passes to his team mates
Passing Rating - 8/10

Heading - 48
He is dreadful at heading. With only 45 Strength, he is unlikely to win any 50/50 chances. He has 74 Jumping, which is decent but with his low strength he can't push players away to get a clean header. 39 Heading Accuracy means that he can't head the ball in the right direction even if he does win the header, which is a rare occurence.
Heading Rating 4/10

Is he worth it?
Yes! He is a cheaper version of Hazard with almost identical stats. He fits perfectly into any Belgian team.
