Player Review
92 - Icon
I did the Bergkamp SBC because I wanted to try a striker that was a little taller and slower than most players I've used and so it was a bit of a gamble. However, after getting using him for 5/6, making sure I had him playing in the right position with the right chemistry style, I can happily say it was worth every coin. I initially tried him at CF and then at RS, and didn't find much success. But once I used him as a lone striker with two wingers either side, I found his true potential. Despite being 6", he can still pull of close-control skill moves to get out of tight situations and when you do and you find a bit of room, just shoot. Most of the time I have confidence that it will glide through the air into the back of the net. And this holds true for his week foot as well.
Also, from inside the box he is great at pulling off low driven, and especially low driven finesse shots, to guide it past the keeper. In his 47 games for me so far, he is on around 10-15 hattricks from Div 1/2 and some fut champs also.
Also, his pace is rarely and issue for me as I have two very fast wingers that I can lay the ball too if nessecary.
I used a finisher chem style to pretty much max out his shooting and give him 87 strength.
