Great player + Good Investment

By TheMCM80, 18-11-2017

I was a bit hesitant to put almost all of my coins in one player. I purchased Baby Owen for 580k at the time. I slapped a hunter on him and decided to see what happened. I started out with just a 10k squad around him, and then built up to what I have now. Owen has been wonderful, and I am thrilled with how he has turned out. I tried him in a few variations of the 4-3-3, and tried to use him in different ways. What I found was that he is by far the most lethal when running in behind and running on to through balls over the top. With the hunter he has blistering pace and finishes almost everything. I also believe he is a solid investment as we keep going with the Icon SBC releases. For any of them that require an Icon ST he will shoot up in value, so you are unlikely to lose a lot coins for a while, and at the worst will probably break even.
