Lucas Paqueta POTM card review
Contrary to popular expectations, Paqueta's POTM card is positioned as a striker and has an overall of 86. If he is playing in his base position, the SBC is not worth doing at this price, as there are plenty of cheaper and better options.
However, if he is converted into a CM, Paqueta's POTM card suddenly gains a lot of value. The 79 Pace, which is slow for an ST in the FIFA 22 meta, is more than enough for a CM.
With 81 Shooting, 84 Passing, 88 Dribbling, and 83 Physicality, Paqueta's POTM card indeed looks more suitable as both CM and CAM.
