FC 25 96 Shapeshifters David Beckham Player Analysis

Team of the Season has ended and the new Shapeshifters promo looks promising with unusual player positions. David Beckham, reimagined as a RB, is the subject of today's review. Despite being versatile to play CDM or LB, RB is the recommended choice.

This is Beckham's third promo card this season, showing upgrades in various stats compared to his previous versions. The card boasts playstyle pluses such as Incisive Pass and Jockey, although lacking Rapid and Quick Step which may affect his perceived speed despite the pace boost.

Players can unlock the Shapeshifters Icon Beckham SBC through different segments with varying squad requirements and ratings. Despite expectations of a pricier SBC, value-wise it seems reasonable. Whether it surpasses other players like Lala or Frimpong will be the ultimate test.

In-game performance review:

• Fantastic passing, especially the whipped pass.
• Solid defensively with good anticipation.
• Capable of scoring goals with finesse and low driven shots.
• Agile dribbling under pressure.
• High stamina and relentless playstyle for consistent performance.
• Missing Rapid and Quick Step playstyles affecting perceived speed.
• Low strength makes him vulnerable in physical battles.

Verdict: While not surpassing top right backs, Beckham's card offers elite-level performance and is enjoyable to use. A cost-effective Icon SBC, suitable for players looking to add a fresh dynamic to FC25.
