91 - Icon

4.5

Great No.9

By fedelcar, 06-01-2018

OK so I did the Icon SBC, cost around 500k.

I Play 4-1-2-1-2 narrow, Rui Costa, Higuain and Sharer up top.

So far, after 20 games, he's been AMAZING, snatching 22 goals (Divs 1 & 2 seasons and some WL) and about 10 assists.

I'm using the Hawk Chem Style as the Long shot and PHY boost is more important to me than the pace I'd get with Hunter (which isn't the best, though very good for a striker still).

First, let's list what he isn't great at:

Dribbling: not very good, won't skip trough defenses
Heading: Won't win headers on corners. With a good cross he'll score though.
Weak foot not great.

Having said that, he's a FANTASTIC FINISHER! Almost every shot is a goal. His positioning is awesome, long shots are great. Just pass the ball to him near the box and it'll be a goal. Good finisher on counter attacks. He's way better than any other strike I've tried this year (Higuain, Lewa, Griezmann, SIF Icardi, Dybala, Mertens, etc)

Alan Shearer

The longshot king

I will keep this simple. This guy may not look as a beast and other players will probably be laughing when the see him on your team because of the low drilling stats and pace. However, they will meet their butcher once this guy starts taking long shots and finishing 99% of the opportunities inside of the box. I am writing this review in may after I tried most of the most expensive and op strikers. I have in my team 95 CR7, ...

Alan Shearer

WOW!!!!!

Yo! He is completely raw. Shearer is not like the other fish in the ocean. His shooting stats is completely out of the ordinary. he has good speed and an indescribable positioning. (((I replace Romeu with Pirlo, and Roberto with Meunier.))) I love him soooo much. He is like my son. He score goals all the time. I think he is fantastic....

Alan Shearer

Clinical!

I decided to go ahead and complete the Shearer SBC because of his shooting stats, more than anything else. Before him, I was using Crespo (87 ovr) and I decided to sell. I was not too sure whether or not to go for Shearer or Puyol, but WOW, was I happy to pick up Shearer. The immediate factor in my delight at picking him up was indeed his shooting. It is amazing. If you have him, think of one thing; power....
