83 - SBC
4.0
Cristiano
By mhysimpson, 11-02-2018

So I had heard a lot of controversy about this card but knew that I would eventually give into the temptation of this card and decided to use it.

What can I say except in the small amount of time I have used this card it is probably one of the best I have used this fifa and I managed to do him for about 120k which is an absolute bargain whether you are starting him or subbing him on.

He is incredibly strong and wins any shoulder to shoulder, although his balance is low so is Henry and Cristiano Ronaldo etc. and it really doesn't make a difference this fifa.

He has the perfect combination of pace, driven shots, strengths, good weak foot and pure sweat.

He scores practically every driven shots if you are in the box or outside the box and scores every power shots. I play him up top with Luis Hernandez and Del Piero prime cards in a 4-3-1-2 and

surprisingly his passing is actually quite good. It is definitely one of the best of any strikes I have used this fifa. He does feel a bit big and bulky at times but he has excellent dribbling and even in my last division 1 game he was running straight through Sergio Ramos and prime Rio Ferdinand.

There are very minimal negatives but they are very noticeable.

His stamina isn't great and I often take him off in the 60th - 70th minute and sub on OTW Salah for him who I packed in a OTW pack.

He is very weak in the air and I don't think he has won a header yet so don't really expect him to be an aerial threat at all.

His composure is notably very low and it is very important this game. It sucks that it's not higher but every card has to have something wrong with it and for a price like this and all the benefits one or two negatives.

His positioning is also kind of noticeable not too much but you shouldn't have too much of a problem with it as he is very fast and can get in position quick enough.

Is He Worth It ?

I probably wasn't the only one who almost got orgasm when EA published this sbc card and luckily i had lot of Japanese League players so it didnt cost me more than 70-90k which is still a lot, but almost 2x cheaper than the actual price. He has insane stats in his card, but when you look closely his in game stats he misses all the important ones as striker. Lets start at composure. 64 composure must be one...

OP CRISTIANO!!!

As soon as the Cristiano SBC came out there was alot of hype! There were so many youtube reviews on him and people were getting excited. His stats looked brilliant. He looked like the complete striker; fast, strong, Tall, clinical, long-shot taker, free kick master. Cristiano is for me the best striker ive used so far on this games (better than Lukaku, ibrahimovic, Belotti, Benzema, Icardi SIF, Mertens) What truly makes thi...

Cristiano rubbish

Managed to pick one up for 80k, and he didn’t have the impact I’d imagine him to have. My strikers will always have a positive record, he however didn’t.
