Rodrigo Palacio FUT Birthday SBC Analysis

For a little over 200,000 coins, this is a superb card for a Serie A or Argentinian team. FIFA 21 has had some incredible Argentinian players as SBC or objective players over the course of this game cycle, most notably Paulo Dybala's Player Moments Card, Javier Pastore's League Player card, and of course the 96 rated Player of the Month Lionel Messi. This set of central attackers, with Palacio up front, make for great chemistry and deadly attacking play. Opponents will definitely be left guessing who will be taking the final shot on goal in the box or even out.

As for Palacio's card individually, he has been given a terrific boost. With his body type and base agility and balance rating of 90 and 95, he will feel like he's dribbling on air, and that's before you capitalize on his five-star skills. It will be hard to get the ball off of him in the attacking third.

And as a striker putting the ball in the back of the net, his finishing is also lethal. 98 positioning and 95 positioning is great, and with a chem style to boost his 86 finishing his shot will be nearly perfect. He also possesses the finesse shot trait, which opens up even more angles in or outside the box.

For a chemistry style, we would recommend either a Deadeye to improve his shooting and passing, or a Marksman to improve his shooting, dribbling, and physicality. Either of these makes him a quality striker, either by himself or with a partner. He can even play CAM for you if you want to use his physicals and solid passing in the attacking midfield position. All in all, Palacios is a great card for a reasonable price.

The Palacio SBC will expire in one week's time.
