83 - IF
4.5
The Colombian Beast
By HulkenHasse, 23-02-2018

The only reason I got to try IF Muriel was because I packed him in my monthly rewards, and actually used him as a super sub at start... But boy oh boy did i miss out! After using him and playing really well with him as a super sub I played Muriel besides Suarez in a 4-1-4-1-2(2) formation with prime Rui Costa at CAM. He's amazing to do 1-2's with and can outpace some of the fastest defenders. Furthermore, his strength is outstanding and combined with 82 balance he is nearly impossible to push of the ball. As first I was worried that he would have gotten outshined by Suarez, but he proved me wrong. You can combine Muriel with any striker in the game and he will do well. Although his composure isn't that high I did not have any complications with it, and he finishes nearly anything inside the box because of his high shot power. However, I did not try out his long shots as much as the closeup finishes, but he did score one banger from 35 yards out. As you can see on his card his dribbling stats are amazing. Nothing to complain about there, he dribbles close to his body and can dribble in narrow spaces. The only downside about Muriel is his passing, but I did not really suffer from bad passes, because i just used him t do fast 1-2's with Suarez. I would not recommend using him to do long passes and crosses. His 4 star combo is also nothing to complain about. All in all, I would say that IF Muriel is worth the money, and he is one of the best strikers in the game. Go buy him!

He is BROKEN !

I don't know where to start...He is absolutely one of the best players i have used this year. First, he is so fast. It is stupid when you give the ball to him, it doesn't seem to affect to his pace at all. What makes him even better without a ball, is his attacking positioning. He was making great runs behind the defenders, thanks to his High/Low WR. His dribbling is also a big pro. With that kind of pace ...

Not Bad.

So i tried this guy because la liga strikers are not the best. and the good ones are pricey. ive tried his regular gold card and i was impressed. with this inform im blown away. his performance was amazing. he very quick and can easily weave through defender. and when hes infront of the goal he can finish anything into the back of the net. His 88 strength feels weird on a striker with this much pace and dribbling.but...

Don't miss out

Muriel was one of the first strikers I bought in FUT this year, being that he is so affordable and his stats seemed to be better than any other La Liga player at his price tier. But let me tell you, he's far far better than his stats would indicate. His pace speaks for itself. His finishing is very solid even though his finishing stat doesn't seem that high. His strength allows him to break through the opponent's back line ...
