Player Review
87 - SIF
So I decided to buy this card after the totw sbc came out and his price crashed. I ended up paying 292k thinking I got a steal (he goes for 250k as this review is being written), but honestly I don't think he's going to leave my club for a while. There's a number of things that must be touched upon about the Brazilian Monster, Bobby Firmino. In the 8 games I used him in I had SIX RAGE QUITS, so his goal record could've been much more insane than it already is.
Pace 9/10 (With Hunter)
This card is nowhere near blistering fast, but it's much more than enough to get past the best defenders in the game. Firmino will not be caught up to if he receives the proper through ball. I pair him up with Mertens and my god are they deadly together. But overall, I am a player who loves utter and shear pace, but Firmino's mediocre pace does not bother me whatsoever
Shooting 11/10
I CAN NOT MISS WITH THIS CARD. His shot is just utterly stupid and unsaveable, if he gets the slightest amount of free space, it just takes a finesse shot to ruin the keeper's day. In addition, his inside the box finishing can turn any keeper into a statue, it's so fluid and smooth that there's practically no effort needed to score. I truly feel that this card can take any shot from anywhere and put it in the back of the goal with his monster of a shot.
Passing 9/10
Firmino was more than proficient in this department, and was much better than I expected. He easily made passes to Mertens and constantly picked up assists left and right. Honestly, the through balls that Bobby can create are massively effective and will get you tons of goals overall
Dribbling NA/10
Look, this is where this boy shines. There's honestly not a number that can justify Firmino's dribbling. I can move left and right, spin, and basically everything in a blink of an eye with this card. Defenders stand absolutely no chance against this guy in the right hands, his balance is also extremely helpful in fighting defenders. All in all, the only player that I've used that has dribbling like his is Neymar or Messi.
Physical 9.5/10
Strength and Balance are the way to go for all my strikers, this guy has it in absolute abundance. Honestly, this man does not get knocked down that often and if he does, it's usually a foul. He feels like a strong super dribbler, and that's what I enjoy about him. He's different from what I usually use and was extremely fun to use.
Overall 10/10
I've never used a player on this level before. I enjoyed players like Neymar, but he's too weak. I enjoyed players like Suarez, but his dribbling isn't great. This card is practically the best of both worlds and I just love it. I may have lost over 60k on my purchase, but who said I was going to sell him? Seeing how insane he's been for Liverpool, i'm sure he'll only continue to get more special cards, and I promise you I'll be first in line to buy them.

- Basically a Complete Monster
- If You Purely Rely on Utter Pace This Could Pose an Issue, But a Hunter Chemistry Style Helps A LOT
