87 - Icon

3.0

A bit disappointing

By ooofi, 23-02-2018

A decent striker, good finisher, fairly fast with a chem on and yet a disappointing card of a much loved footballer. The trend is there to see. Lower and mid-tier icons have been short changed this year and Larsson is a good example. I've played with strikers with far less strength (Giovinco eg.) but Larsson isn't evasive enough with his dribbling or skills (also Balance 78?), he feels like a cumbersome stick figure with no clear destination. His passing is another let down. After the patch, somehow my opponents' defence seems crowded and I prefer playing a through lobbed passes. But man, his passing is just not useful. Because of these factors, I end up losing possession one way or the other with Larsson. The only way he seems to be effective is if a winger or CAM finds him with a clear pass in the penalty box. Then, he resembles an icon.

PS: Another thing that annoyed me was he has dreadlocks. This is supposed to be the bald version for Gabriel's sake.

His positioning in the box.
