Pros

He dominates physical duels and shields the ball with ease, especially effective against lightweight midfielders.

Strong in tackles, interceptions, and defensive positioning, a reliable wall in front of the backline.

Surprisingly smooth on the ball in tight spaces compared to typical defensive mids.

Holds position well and provides a calm, physical base in formation setups needing defensive cover.

Cons

Lags behind during counters or when chasing fast midfielders/attackers.

Offers virtually no goal-scoring contribution; best kept away from final third involvement.

Can feel stiff under pressure despite high dribbling stats.

Limited Skill Set (3 star skill move & 3 star weak foot) restricts flair play, quick direction shifts, or confident off-foot passes.

Alternatives

Final Verdict

Sissoko is a powerful, physical CDM best suited for users who value strength, stability, and defensive presence in midfield. His tackling and physicality make him a rock in defensive formations, and he's reliable in breaking up plays. However, his lack of offensive threat, limited skill set, and average pace prevent him from excelling in fast-transition or attacking roles.

Ideal for players needing a no-nonsense ball-winner in defensive midfield, but not recommended for meta-focused or attack-driven strategies.
