94 - TOTS

4.0

Tank

I've been using this player ever since he was released alongside Ronaldinho and either Crespo or Uth as my CAM in a 41212(2). Mind you I have not used him in a lone striker position, and I do not intend to do so in the future. This player needs to be surrounded by fast, agile players who can run past defenders and deliver accurate passes to this striker. That's the word that really suits him the most - striker. His only purpose on the pitch is to score goals, not to do fancy moves or deliver Bergkamp-like passes. Despite his 87 agility, he does turn like a truck sometimes, although I do wish to add that even this late into the game, he IS agile enough to compete against top-tier defenders. TOTS Petersen trying to get past icon and TOTS defenders now, is like trying to get past cheap-o defenders with Andy Carroll back when the game was first released.

In front of goal, Petersen does not disappoint. He definitely manages to stand out from the bunch even alongside 94 Ronaldinho and 90 Crespo, almost never missing a low driven shot. With him, you're getting exactly what you expect: 99 Positioning, 99 Finishing as well as 99 Composure, and it sure feels like that. Get this man in a good shooting positioning and you will score 9 times out of 10. Using this card to its best abilities takes some getting used to, especially if you are used to playing with strikers that are very fast and agile, but it's a welcomed change of pace, at least in my opinion. By the way, I have only used him in Fut Champions, so I wasn't messing around using him against the AI or on Online Seasons. So, that being said: for the price he is probably one of the better cards you can get at the striker position, but he won't be a game changer unless you're upgrading from a Petersen-type striker with worse stats. But since his price is so low for what Petersen is, do not hesitate to try him out and see if you like him. Oh, and his short passing is alright too... At least it's much better than Crespo's. I remember using 91 Van Basten a few months ago when he was close to a million coins, and Petersen indeed feels very similar to what Van Basten felt like back then.

Better Than Expected

I am a huge Dortmund fan, so when TOTS Bundesliga came out I was ecstatic. Today I opened the TOTS guarantee pack and before I thought, "okay the only players I don't want are Peterson, the goalkeepers (cause Fahrman is a beast), and anyone I can already afford (under 100K). Well, I saw the German flag, freaked out cause I thought it was Marco Reus, then I saw the ST position so I was expecting Gnabry which would be cool as...
