Pro

Standing at 6'3", Bastoni has the physical frame needed to handle aerial threats and offer a presence during set pieces.

Arguably one of the best passing centre-backs in the game, Bastoni is a top-tier left-footed distributor.

His calmness on the ball is one of his standout traits. His composure helps maintain shape and flow even when pressed aggressively.

Defensively intelligent, Bastoni positions himself well to intercept passes and avoid unnecessary challenges. His anticipation helps compensate for his lack of top-end pace.

Bastoni is comfortable in both a back 3 and back 4. In a back 3, he thrives as the central blocker.

Nachteile

While positionally sharp, Bastoni doesn’t possess the explosive acceleration needed to chase down rapid attackers. He can be exposed in high defensive lines or when isolated in transition against pacey forwards.

Despite his size, Bastoni isn’t an enforcer-type centre-back. He can lose out in physical duels against more robust strikers.

In ultra-competitive or pace-heavy setups, Bastoni might be overlooked. Players favoring high press and fast CBs may find quicker and more aggressive defenders fitting the meta.

Endgültiges Urteil

Bastoni UTOTS card is technically refined and tactically sound. He id ideal for players who want to control possession, build from the back, and operate with structured defensive lines. While his lack of pace and physical edge may deter meta-focused users, he’s an elite fit for patient, strategic gameplay where intelligence and ball progression are prioritized over raw speed or brute force. He may be overlooked for pacey options but theres no holding back while saying his work rates currently make him Top 5 in game.
