Flashback Ivan Rakitic Player Review

If you're not sure whether it's worth the effort to unlock Flashback Ivan Rakitic by complete this new SBC, part of that will depend on how your squad already looks.

If you could use an incredibly well balanced centre midfielder, Rakitic is someone you absolutely can't miss out on.

All six of his core attributes are 86 or above, with four of those in the 90+ category, and those are all rooted by some very solid underneath stats.

With with the exception of Jumping and Heading Accuracy (42 and 70, respectively), Rakitic has 80+ ratings in every other attribute, including 90+ ratings in 21 different attributes.
