90 - Icon
5.0
Overmars is broken!!
By Dieguiinn, 23-10-2017

I will start talking about this beast. I used to trade with icons, they drop and increase their price a lot on the market, so you can get coins easily. I decided to try 86 rated Overmars, and it went too good for my team, that I decided to do the 90 Rated SBC to try it... The results? He is broken, believe me, 20 games, 35 goals and 16 assists, using 4-3-1-2 formation, with 84 Alejandro "Papu" Gomez as partner. I used Mertens before, you can see that 90 Overmars and 86 Mertens on the cards are very similar, but no, let me explain you:


Pace (10/10)


We don´t need to think a lot, a player with 95 Pace is obviously very fast in game, and the 96 Acceleration - 94 Sprint Speed shows that. I can easily run from my area on a counter-attack and reach the other area in a few seconds, If you are thinking to use him as Winger, he will be good for you, I use him as ST, and it´s a fucking beast.


Shooting (9/10)


Let´s see, the card says 82 shooting, but believe me, this card has +87, if you put the instruction "Get in Behind" Overmars will run and stay alone, this knowing that Overmars has 5* Weak foot, so if you want to shoot with the Right or Left foot, the shoot will be brutal anyway. Personally i use to shoot with the Driven Shot, because it´s too effective for me, there it comes why I put 9/10 and not 10/10, I tried to shoot with R1+Shoot and it´s not effective, But if you try the driven shot, normal shots, and longshots, the shoot will be goal on 95% times.


Passing (8/10)


I don´t considered too much the Overmars passing on this review, as I use him as ST, so my priorities are the Pace and Shooting, but on the 20 loan matches I played with him, he made 16 assists, all of them to Alejandro Gómez, he is a good shooter and a good assistant, sometimes the passes don´t reach to the partner, but most of times are because of my faults.


Dribbling (9/10)


The reason of this 9/10 is the 3* at skill moves, because on all the other facts, Overmars is incredible, 88 agility, 88 Balance, 87 Ball control, 90 Dribbling, he is perfect, and if you improve this with a Chemistry Style, I can´t imagine the quantity of broken defenses you can reach.


Defending (6/10)


As I use him as a Striker, the defending doesn´t matters for me, but when I press to the defenders, on the 50 per cent of the times, I can get to the ball, it´s not a spectacular thing on Overmars, but sometimes is effective.


Physical (6/10)


There it is one of the things that I don´t like from Overmars, as a Striker, it would be incredible to have all the stats I mentioned before and also have good physical to avoid Defenders pressure, but Overmars is not a great Pressure Avoider, you should avoid defenders using his good dribbling, doing some skills before the defenders can reach you, because otherwise, You will lose the ball easily.

Way too underrated!

I did the SBC to get him for just over 300K & couldn't be more happy with this card! He ticks all my boxes exept for 1. I tried in in many different positions: LF, ST, LM & even CAM. I found that in LM he is best but also is pretty good at ST in central formations. But a LF & CAM he wasn't anything very special. I found him to last the full 90 mins every game due to his high stamina.

Very good if you use the good formation

I have used Overmars in a 4231(2) formation on the leftmid position, but in that formation he was pretty average.Then, I used him in a 4321 formation on the leftwing, and he was so good in that formation. Every 1-on-1 situation, with a low driven shot, is a goal. If you have the coins, and you use the good formation, he is definitely a must buy.

God

Well. how do I describe this guy? He is a god. He is literally ridiculously good. I got him for around 500 k through his SBC. So far he has played 284 games and he has managed to score a whopping 342 goals and assist 170 goals. I've used him both as a left forward in the 4-3-2-1 formation and as a striker on the right in the 4-1-2-1-2 (2) formation. as a left forward he was at his best for the first 10 games, scoring 42 goa...
