By turkeydinosaur1, 13-02-2018

I feel that the previous review has not done this man justice, that is why I am writing this review. You cannot judge a man after 4 games, I don't feel like I can after 30 games however I feel I have a slightly better idea over such a large investment. After sinking most of my coins into Del Piero SBC and reaping the benefits I had built myself up to 800k and was about to pull the trigger on the Van Basten SBC. As soon as Shevchenko was released I made the impulse decision to do that instead. After 30 games I am happy with my choice. And around 700k (again most of my coins) for such an excellent prime is outstanding. Let me break it down.


Games: 30 Goals: 76 Assist: 11 Chem: Marksman


Stats


Pace: In my opinion he is blistering. Next to Del P he pulls away very fast, and on top of that his strength means once at top speed he is difficult to stop. 8/10


Shooting: This is where I entirely disagree with the previous review. This is why you want Shevchenko, his shot is incredible. Much alike Del P, yet I find Shevchenko to be even more clinical. The shot power is what I think takes him to a next level and the ability to do it with either foot despite only being 4*. He is, for me at least a master of the 1v1, especially with the low driven shot and low driven finesse. 76 goal in 30 games says it all. 10/10


Passing: I would say this element of his attack is poor. His quick, close quarter 1-2's are acceptable but anything more and he will struggle. I rely on Del P to thread it onto the on-running Shevchenko. 6/10


Dribbling: I thought him to be a very competent dribbler. His first touch is divine, on the run he has a curious style of dribbling that I didn't think I would get on with but he seems to have a long touch when sprinting. For Shevchenko this worked in his favour meaning he ran onto the ball and his strength meant he kept it even if a defender got in the way. For me it worked despite it normally not being my dribbling style but take this into consideration as it may not work for some. 9/10


Defending: N/A


Physical: He is a striking menace. He is tall at 6ft and feels a lot stronger than the 79 strength stated. Stamina could be an issue if you were to go into extra time but for 90 minutes is A bully that you wouoldn't want to play against. 9/10



  • Shooting of any-kind will, almost always, result in a goal.
  • Pace is more than sufficient.
  • Dribbling style that suits him as a player.
  • Physicality, both on and off the ball.
  • Passing is poor
  • Stamina if in extra time.
  • Cost, but I don't regret spending practically all my coins.

A class of his own

After using the 88 version for a short time and the impact he left on me i decided to save for his prime and didn't regret it, he is just amazing in every thing i could score in almost every situation even the ones that i thought impossible,his pace, pass and dribbling are way better than what they look like even the stamina is not bad at all, sometimes he is the only player standing until the 120th minutei ha...

Andriy Shevchenko, The Eastern Wind

Andriy Shevchenko. One of the best football players in the real life and my childhood hero, he was awesome playing for dynamo kiev and AC Milan, but it's the same in fifa 18? let's see.I've used his 88 version at start of fifa, and i kinda liked it since he was scoring goals even without i wanted to, but he was lacking of pace and a bit frustrating to use against great defenders. Something that i thought...

Best striker ever

I only used him for 11 games but i absolutely love him. He is the best striker i used entire game. H/H work rate would seem as a problem but he covers it with positioning.
