So where do I start of? I first bought Robby Baggio and played him as a CAM, he was wonderful. Until the 50' where he was already dead. So i wanted an other Italian Icon.
I bought him for 920k i think (Prices where a little higher). I have now played 20 games with him as a ST. To use him I had to change my formation and play with 2 Strikers.
In the beginning I thought that Immobile while completly disappear. But, that was truely not the case! They play really good together!
The first match i played with him i saw a tall and big guy, standing beside koulibaly and i thought: Damn! This guy is more a tank then Koulibaly! In my first 10 Games i struggled a bit to score with him. So he only had like 1 Asist and 4 Goals. The more i played with him, the better i got. He is now at 20 Games with 27 Goals and 3 Asist.
I dont know how many goals i would have had scored with him if i wasnt such a bad finisher. Absolutely amazing posistioning, can shot on target like 10+ per game.
Pace (9/10)
With Hunter on him, he has 93 Pace, which really is enough. Didnt noticed him as very fast, but was never a lack.
Shooting (10/10)
I mean this guy really knows how to shoot. Slap Hunter on him, 96 shooting rating then. Doesnt matter if outside or inside the box. He just bangs them in like nothing. He is also a very good header! You dont notice his 4* Weak foot. Just shoot with both feet, he rarely miss the target.
Passing (8/10)
Doesnt miss much passes but doesnt make much asists neither.
Dribbling (8/10)
I am not the type of player who dribbels past 100 defenders. I like passing 1 or maybe 2 players with a fake shot.
Defending
He is a striker, im not judging that.
Physicality (10/10)
Absolute Beast, you can not push him aside or so. He also has like an "Aura" which dares you to have respect.
I am not even thinking of replacing him in the future, altough i could afford higher rated players. He is just so much fun to play with.
On a very quick note, I originally got Hagi from the SBC, but I found him to be so disappointing that I decided I couldn't wait for the next Icon SBC. I would advise you to steer clear of Hagi.
First of all, it's worth noting I've only used Vieri for 5 games. But let me tell you, those 5 games were my final 5 FUT Champions games, and we all know how hard they can be. In those 5 games, Vieri amassed 15, yes 15, GOALS. He also notched 4 assists, which is satisfactory, but believe me when I say that his primary function is rustling the net. In these games I used him in a mix of 4-2-3-1 and 4-1-2-1-2, as the ST in the 4-2-3-1 and an LS in a 4-1-2-1-2 to utilise his 'Finesse Shot' trait.
In the air, the only more dominant player I can think of is Cristiano Ronaldo, who happens to be 2.5mil. For the price of 750k, you can bag yourself the most lethal aerial weapon on Fifa 19. But if your play style is more about quick passing and through balls, Vieri can do that too. Let me be honest when I say his long passing and vision is average, but for those short one-two's his 85 short passing makes him more than capable.
Generally, he is an incredibly capable player, and if you play to his strengths you too will reap the rewards that this monster brings so often to the table. I'm typically a Gold 1 (22 wins - feels bad) calibre player, and I have a very good team to support Vieri. However, even amongst Neymar and Hazard POTM he is the player I will always give a chance to if I am given the option. I am currently using him with the Hawk chemistry style, because I do not believe that A) he needs an agility and balance boost, and B) that any them style would make a significant difference to this.
If you're looking to do future Icon SBC's and want someone to play with in the meantime, I urge you to consider Vieri. I was very skeptical myself, and his face card stats are incredibly deceptive. Look in closer detail and you will see that he has some ridiculous stats.
Overall I would recommend playing him in a two-striker formation alongside a nimble forward, but he was also exceptional in the 4-2-3-1.
Pace 9/10 - With Hawk he goes to 89/88, which to be honest is more than good enough for a big man. If he gets in behind, chances are he'll be quick enough to score. If you like Mbappe, Vieri will obviously not have the same play style.
Shooting- 94 positioning, 94 finishing, 91 shot power. Those stats speak for themselves, and my goodness are they reflected in game. Vieri kicks the ball so hard I'm surprised he doesn't puncture it. Assuming you don't hit a red timed finish, everything with this man is going in the back of the net. First minute, last minute, header, volley, arse - it's all going in the net. If he misses, I'll tell you now, it was user error.
Finesse Shot Trait - All of the best players this year have this trait. Vieri is no different, and with this trait he is able to stick it top bins most times.
Weak foot - Vieri has a 4* weak foot. This is incredibly useful in most game situations. Do not hesitate to shoot on his right.
Strength - This man is like a bull. Whilst his balance neglects this a little, with a hawk he does to 94 strength with aggression in the 80's. In a shoulder-to-shoulder battle, you will enjoy watching many a defender rolling over on his arse as Vieri charges through on his next victim.
Heading/Jumping - Goal kicks, corner kicks or crosses it does not matter. Vieri will win everything. His strength/height/jumping combo makes him an absolute unit, and unless your opponent has a running start with a Ramos lets say, no-one is out-jumping him. In terms of Heading Accuracy (93), it's a goal. Every. Single. Time.
Dribbling (First touch/Reactions/Composure) - Everything you'd want from a forward. Good reactions, a superb first touch and composure that means he will stay cool even when you don't.
Stamina - Assuming you don't use Constant Pressure, Vieri should be lasting you the full 90 minutes, and perhaps even 120.
Short Passing - 85 short passing means he will rarely misplace a pass at short range.
Agility - Yes, it's low. Yes it's VERY low. Should you be concerned? Absolutely not, You can just as easily turn an opponent with Vieri as Mbappe if you know how too. Utilise the shielding mechanic to your advantage and you will not notice this agility as much.
Balance - Probably my main gripe with an otherwise superb card. Occasionally he can be knocked off balance by a defender and miss as a result. Also if you're using the bumper dribbling I recommend you time your shot between taps, as otherwise he will not be in an optimal position to strike the ball. If you can manage this main issue, I don't see why you wouldn't enjoy this card.
Skill moves - Only 3*, and I think 4* would be a nice added bonus. However, at times I think it improves my game using a less-able skiller, as I am more focused on the basics and don't attempt things I cannot pull off.
Defending - He's a striker, what do you expect? Mind you, I reckon Nepenthez would still put him CDM. (Love you Neppo)
Did the sbc because it worked out the same price as the cheapest icons on the market, and i had planned to submit him in a later sbc anyway. Wasn't expecting a lot from him, but I was soon becoming very surprised. I have played over 200 games with this card, mostly in the weekend league and he is an absolute unit. Using the hawk chem style really boosts his strength and jumping, and he is an absolute monster in the air. He's very hard to push off the ball, and the best CB's in the game really struggle. His left foot is lethal, and he has 4* weak foot so his right isn't too shabby either. Overall, the card is amazing, don't be put off by the low agility because if you know how to use him, he can still turn and dribble and tear defences apart.
As this year I played a whole lot more FIFA than the previous years, I finally was able to buy my first icon ever and wow was I excited to try this guy out. I got to say that my expectations were pretty high for this dude, but he was absolutely able to fullfil them. I played him with a Hunter and mostly on divison rivals (rarely have time to play FUT Champions) on divison 3 and 4 beside Bale and Asensio (two other absolute madlads).
To start off, you expect this man to be a f*cking bulldozer up front and that is exactly what he is, challenging all kinds of centre backs with his anormally large shoulders (for real, this guy is Kim Kardashian's hips large) and winning headers all day with his great jumping and Hawkeye-eske heading accuracy.
His shooting with the Hunter is crazy, first timed shots anywhere near the goal are certified bangers and his shot power is the wet dream of any medieval cannon.
Pace wise don't expect him to sprint like Aubameyang even with 93 pace with the chem style, but do expect him to outrun pratically any centre back on through balls and 1 on 1.
His dribbling is just enough for a striker, can turn with a lot of efficiency and controls the ball very smoothly but you can feel the clear lack of agility and balance, though he blasts like Usain bloody Bolt when you use those OP stepovers.
His long passing is not great, sometimes lacks when I need to supply the ball to Bale or Asensio on those smexy through runs, but is impecable on short passing on those 1-2 situations.
I am not gonna comment on his defending but his physical presence is the reason why I win the ball on very dangerous areas up front.
Overall, I obviously recommend this monster, he is the perfect target man and the best striker that I tried this year easily! Do expect this guy to appear in the perfect spots to tap it in and make sure you have fullbacks with great crossing because it will 100% benefit having lads placing milimetric crosses to his golden shiny gorgeous forehead. He doesn't need much to score, just make sure you place it on his left foot and you can lay back on your chair while gently pressing the shoot button and he will bury it 4/5 times. For 300k you are getting a genuine poacher which will win you games when you most need it, so try him and enjoy the living sh*t out of him!
Impecable shooting anywhere near the goal;
Awesome strength;
Pace (a little slow in comparison to some fullbacks but demolishes centre backs);
Crazy jumping and heading accuracy;
Pinpoint perfect positioning;
Great short passing;
3 star skills can be an issue on 1 on 1;
4 star weakfoot but feels more like a 3 star on long shots, though finishing with both is impecable;
Turns a bit sluggish comes the 80th minute;
Long passing lacking a bit;
46 years old makes him terrible on career mode (jk);
Para iniciar quiero decir que traia unas expectativas bastantes altas al momento de comprar a esta carta, anteriormente habia utilizado a Lukaku IF y me habia parecido un gran jugador pero queria dar un salto de calidad con Vieri y sin lugar a dudas el jugador me funciono bastante bien, es un jugador que cuando arranca es casi imparable gracias a su fuerza y los tiros de calidad y sus tiros potentes son de lo mejor eso si su agilidad no le ayuda mucho y en espacio reducido es mejor pasar el balon por que a Vieri le cuesta mucho el driblling pero tiene un gran pase corto que le sirve bastante para ser un excelente nueve de area, goleador y muy potente. Le doy un 9.2/10 por su falta de agilidad.
-El increible tiro.
-Fuerza y potencia.
-Pase corto y su gran calidad para las jugadas de pared.
Amazing, this guy makes goals like who drinks water kkk. He's strongh, not very fast, but is enough for me, incredible header and great short pass.
The unique bad factor is aglity to turn around the opponents, but hes maked 34 goals in 30 games in Weekend league, made me a gold 1 and i paid for him only 700k using black friday.
