as we already knew For a few daysToday the Wissam Ben Yedder POTM SBC from Ligue 1 has arrived on FIFA 23. It comes along with other content such as the new free envelopes there we can get it till march 21st. This version averages 89, the same as his Centurions card and only one point higher than the recent SIF. It could be interesting? Let’s analyze it.
FIFA 23 – Ligue 1 Wissam Ben Yedder POTM Analysis
Just a few days ago we tested their SIF and also used the Centurions. The event card is pretty much the same, with only a few slightly tweaked stats (plus the “Quality Shot” trait and five extra long waypoints). While the In Form is lower, but the stat difference is very small. In the collar we see a more noticeable upgrade and there are only two additional points.
From experience with his two previous versions, it must be said that Ben Yedder It’s not as special as in other seasons. His own body type doesn’t seem as beneficial, there isn’t much difference between him and the other options.
He continues to be a very useful attacker in the final meters, someone good enough to generate his own scoring chances.. It is his great virtue, to create and take advantage of opportunities in the region. Because his dribbling stats are very good, his body type doesn’t ruin them, and he shoots very well with both left foot and right foot.
After applying Hunter as his chemistry, Ben Yedder POTM will combine 99 finishing and 93 shot power. Don’t expect too much from long shots for 78, but inside the box it will be very safe. Apart from score differences from the other options for its stars, for its bad leg five and for the skill four. And while he’s no longer as valuable as he was at the start of FIFA 23, he does have the “Outside Shooting” trait.
Probably the big upgrade compared to its recent SIF will be precision as an assistant. Because he receives a +2 pass to reach 87 vision, 90 short pass and 72 long pass. The other element already addresses this aspect, but Player of the Month will be even more specific.
While its main lack should be performance in long races. After applying Hunter as chemistry, Ben Yedder POTM will barely reach 95 accelerations and sprints. Numbers that do not seem horrible, but that in the game we should notice even lower.
From experience with its other versions, He is not a footballer who stands out with spaces despite his good position. Maybe his body type and height of 1’70 make him harder to stand. Apart from the fact that his stamina (79 in the player of the month) is improvable. It can also help you underperform when you have to run at full speed.
The aforementioned deficiency leads to Ben Yedder tends to go unnoticed against typical rivals who advance their defensive lines a lot. And that can be very problematic against some demanding opponents in FIFA 23. Because a lot of people use high-level central defenders with a privileged sprint and very strong physically. And before them, it is normal that we see limited Wissam.
Therefore, as his numbers are very similar to the Centurions and only marginally better than his SIF, we expect this POTM to be very good inside the box. An attacker who, close to the goal, will have a lot of resources to generate his own goalscoring chances and make them happen. However, over long distances it could be uncomfortable. He will not be quick in these actions, and that could hurt us very badly against certain DFCs.
Compared to other seasons, we believe that Ben Yedder lost quite a bit of value in FIFA 23. Because while he’s still great at creating chances, he doesn’t seem so special anymore. While his physical weakness takes its toll at times.
We consider it useful for certain playstyles, as long as it is paired with more dangerous players over longer distances. But It doesn’t look like a brutal DC. He will have limits that could bother us in the most complicated matches.
So is it worth it?
We clearly do not recommend it. because the improvement in stats compared to SIF is very small, but the price difference is quite significant. His In Form does not even reach 100,000 coins and is transferable. In case you want to use Ben Yedder, we will buy this item before doing the SBC.
We don’t think the upgrade is worth its cost as it maintains 74 strength, barely increases one point in stamina and another in sprint. Wissam’s big lack is his performance in long runs, which in those situations usually struggles against top centre-backs. AND with such a low boost, we assume this won’t solve the problem. So we wouldn’t spend so many socks or coins on someone with this major weakness.
We recommend the SIF, in case you are looking for a really good CD creating your own scoring opportunities inside the zone and you usually dominate plays through possession. But should be accompanied by another more dangerous attacker with spacesso as not to be too limited against typical FIFA 23 rivals who use level DFCs and greatly advance their defensive lines.
Although we wouldn’t recommend it if you tend to attack quickly, like to counter and hit triangles frequently. In these actions, it is not special. In fact, although it may not be very popular, Jonathan David TIF looks even more complete. Precisely because he reaches 99 sprint with Hunter as his chemistry and is much stronger.
The Canadian is worse one-on-one in the box, but the difference isn’t huge either. He also has a perfect finish with style and a bad leg five. East someone more balanced, who knows how to better adapt to different types of rivals.
Ben Yedder is deadlier near goal, but much more boring when you have to run at top speed. Even if perhaps the Lille player is not part of your team. But if it would have chemistry, it’s an attractive option at a derisory price.
Recommended Chemistry Style
- Hunter: He will improve his pace to the maximum, reaching 95 in acceleration and sprint. That doesn’t seem like an awful number, but based on experience from his previous FIFA 23 iterations, we should rate him a bit smaller due to his height and body type. Although the shooting stats are very good, it will combine 98 positioning, 99 finishing and 93 shooting power.
