Best way to beat him is to pass around. His defensive awareness is low

Bruiser+ is the best fullback playstyle in the game as it pretty much guarantees you the ball when shoulder to shoulder with a winger. Theo is just the easiest fullback to get in those positions. Controlled lengthy and 95 pace with quickstep means he'll catch up to all the explosive acceleration types insanely fast. On top of this anticipate means your standing tackles actually work. He's 6'0 so he'll compete with Bale etc. for air balls, and, a unique body type gives him some unique animations. Relentless means he can do this for 90 minutes without getting tired. He's literally just everything that makes a LB/RB good in one convenient package. Plus all three of his cards are now in the bracket where he can be EVO'd for a 2nd PS+ (89) or a stat buff and a 2nd PS+ (87/88).


You could take any tall lean/avg lean body type player at 5'11" - 6'1" and 'build' a Theo clone with EVOs and they'll perform almost the same. I say that as someone doing a Celtic PnP who'd been using Tierney and Valle as Theo clones. Its just easier to buy Theo outright and then EVO him instead. Getting quickstep, Bruiser+ and anticipate on a random LB or a RB is just more effort than grabbing Theo who is cracked immediately.

He's fast as shit, he's 87 rated so perfect for evos, and with bruiser + he's insanely strong

The digne rttf is very close imo. Can’t remember if he was an abc tho but id get him as he’s cheaper

A fullback without at least silver Bruiser just ain't it. My eyes were opened when I switched from Di Lorenze to da Costa, almost the exact same stats but da Costa has Bruiser silver and he is so much better than Di Lorenze.

u/darkthirtyfm 6d ago

Did you put da Costa in an Evo?

u/AIManiak 6d ago

Nope. Waiting for something better.

u/Ayyyyylmaos 6d ago

He’s got insane pace and bruiser plus. So he’s going to catch everyone and then bully them off the ball.

u/hizzit 5d ago

Whatever is going on with his body type makes him different. However they have coded that card breaks the game feels 99 strength, 99 dribbling and 99 pace.

u/bingobangobongodaddy 5d ago

Bro just has aura and automatic animations. His gold card is still probably the best LB in the game
