Cheap and deadly

Tried Mkhitaryan in Fifa 17 and it never really clicked for me, plus there were better options at RW/RM/RF to chose from in the EPL.

I packed him and decided to give him a go. Took a while for me to work out how to use him properly though.

Tried him as a Right winger, found he was a little slow to get in behind and went missing.

Tried him at CAM, found he didn't get forward with the attack enough.

i was about to sell him then tried him at LF and........... WOW!

Honestly, give it a go! He's awesome there. He's played over 271 games for the club and the first 50-100 were while i was figuring out how to use him so his stats do really do him justice (271 games 109 goals).

Once at LF he was banging them in consistently. Fut Champs, Squad battles (legendary), divisions, he now assists or scores every game. Not really sure how many games he's played at LF but he's involved in at least one goal every game at the moment.

Starting in a 4321 formation with Henry and Jesus up top with him. At the start of the match i switch Henry to ST, Jesus to RF and Mkhitaryan to LF.

He just seems to know where to be at the right time. If i need him Wide, there he is. If i need him cutting in, there he is. Even though his finishing stat isn't that high he seems to find the back of the net regularly. Driven shots with the left foot, cutting in and finessing with the right, he does both easy.

With a Hunter card his pace is half decent and he can get in behind if you time the pass right. I use to have Hazard at LF and Mkhitaryan has been far more effective for me than Hazard was.

(Hazard's driven shots with his weak foot are trash by the way. honestly feels like a 3 star weak foot not 4).

Mkhitaryan's card is so cheap for how he performs. Go get him, switch him to LF in game and watch the goals fly in! I hate the term OP but i don't know how else to describe him. Overpowered!

Henrikh Mkhitaryan

One of the BEST CAMS in the game

I bought OTW Mkhi (86 atm), thinking he would not be really good, but he's AMAZING. I switch him to CAM during the came, his passing is really really good, and his ball control is also amazing.Driven shot is 8/10

Henrikh Mkhitaryan

The best Armenian player

Never tried Mkhitaryan before. Actually I was not going to buy him in FIFA 18 too but he came to my team from free pack (untradeble). It is a bit challenging to use him with La-Liga squad because of rare nation hopefully Mata+Manquillo helped to create good links. What can I say? He is brilliant and real hard worker on the field. Comparing to Dembele he has less speed and dribbling but shoot...

Henrikh Mkhitaryan

GOAT BEST RIGHT WINGER IN THE EPL

Henrikh Mkhitaryan has brought me from div 3 down to div 1 and from gold 2 to elite 3, im using him after his first in form and was lucky enough to pack him. His pace mixed with 4 star 5 star brings a powerful asset to a front line consisting of morata and mane. His strength is also amazing mixed with his passing. he is definitely worth around 200k
