Player Review
93 - Icon
First review but was compelled to write one after playing 10 games with the brilliant Van Basten. Now the first thing to say is he suits my style of play perfectly, I'm not a big skiller but like the odd heal flick and ball roll so his 3 star skills is perfect for me. His hold up play is fantastic and has a brilliant ability to keep the ball when you would normally lose it, in the box he always seems to be able to get a shot off when other players would have been blocked. Pace has been fine, but blistering but a decent through ball and he doesn't get caught. Heading has been very good (not 89 Ibra good but good, I play Zlat just behind, the two of them are deadly) but the main thing obviously his shots, Wow some of the goals I've scored with him are outrageous and as you get more confident with him you just start shooting from silly angles and distances. He's crashed 4 in off the crossbar from down town and with his positioning is alway in the right spot and makes the right runs.
Ive played with decent strikers and currently have 6 Icons all SBC bar Jay Jay 87 (he's a good lad too) but Van just feels Elite and for me has been a game changer.
