83 - IF
5.0
Simone Zaza is the best player in fifa 18
By EvoHS, 08-12-2017

He's one of the first players I've bought in fifa 18 and i sold him to make a squad with Mbappe and martial as ST's. Safe to say i bought him again.

I feel he's better than fast strikers, he can resist almost any defender in the game, he can score from almost anywhere as long as he shoots with his left foot, he's got the best shooting I've ever experienced in any FIFA game. Seriously his shoots are outstanding.

His pace is enough for what you want from him, his passes are ok, and his 80 in dribbling makes it so you can pass through a defender and then make an inbelievable shot because that's what Zaza does. In 1v1 situations, he scores almost all the time with his left, and he scores enough with his right foot.

You just have to pair him with a fast striker (i had OTW Bernardeschi as ST for a long time, but IF Immobile is just an incredible striker TBH) and he does the job, he will strike at least 1 goal every match, since for me it's almost 2 and i'm not a good player.

  1. He's one of the best shooters in the game (seriously, try him, you'll see.)
  2. He's kinda cheap
  3. He's strong
  4. He's left footed
  5. He strikes A LOT
  6. People wil add you to ask "Who the F* is Simone Zaza?" (srlsy, happend twice)
  7. You can pair him with one of the most solid striker (IF immobile)


  1. His pace is below average
  2. His right foot is kinda lackluster
  3. You have to use him in a Liga or an italian/Calcio hybrid so no Gabriel jesus for you :/

The Best Target Man in the game

I always like a striker who you can always count on the win a header from a GK but can also play, and Zaza's IF card is that. Pair him up with a fast striker and hit him for those 1-2s. Knock it long and get him to hold it up and wait for support. Whip it in to him at the near post at corners and make your opponent ragequit

What a BEAST!

Where do I begin? I bought Zaza because I wanted some physical presence up front in my BBVA squad. First impressions were extremely negative, didn't enjoy him at all, thought he was clunky. I decided to switch up my play style and play to his strenghts and WOW my opinion quickly changed. This guy is the BEST target man I have used this year, the L2 shielding is filthy and his left foot is insane. His shots fly in from every...

THE MONSTER

Well, where can I start? I bought this man a long time ago, maybe a month before he came out and I have used him ever since. He has scored goals from every kind and angles (even overhead kicks), he wins 95% of headers so he's deadly in corner kicks, his finishing in crazy and if you want to try from outside the box he won't let you down. I use him as st in a 433(4) with Griezmann and they are the deadliest duo I've ever us...
