I already had the NIF from a pack and then paid 21500 coins for the IF version.

I found the NIF version to be outstanding and he also managed to score from 30 yards+ with his favoured right foot. I played him at RCM in 433 (2) but he was always out of position due to his High / High work rates. He scored in the penalty shoot-out 4-5 loss and was awarded Man Of The Match after a solid performance and surprisingly had 6/7 Tackles Won. Performance 8.2

The IF version was much better both on the ball and with his off the ball movement as he spent most of the game lurking around the edge of the box and managed to score and got an assist in a 2-1 win. He was Man Of The Match in this game also but I found his overall performance worse despite getting a better rating. His shot power is the most notable change and getting the ball to dip from distance is a nightmare. Performance 8.9

For a no nonsense player who has good passing and a decent finish you can't go wrong with the NIF for under 500 coins.

After using both players in the same position within the same formation I would advice to have a CDM covering to not leave a gaping whole to be exploited by your opponents.

Nice little sum up of the difference there. I've moved this in to the Player Reviews section and added your 25,000 SF Points.
