Where do I start. Been waiting to do my first review, and finally found a player worth doing. Was very sceptical of the price of this card but in some ways more than others, He's worth it. All in all a beautiful fun card to play with, with 96 dribbling he feels absolutely majestic when on the ball. EA have done well in perfectly crafting his left foot, he just can;t miss and scores wonderful goes. An even though he's got 2 star weak foot, his left foot ability allows him to fulfill the role of the Robben we've all known and loved to watch.
Pace- Can beat past any defender
Dribbling- Majestic maestro with all his dribbling stats being 90+
Passing- Especially short passing
Finishing- Truly prolific anywhere outslide the box
Curve- I know fifa nerfed the finesse shots but it truly doesnt affect this player
Physical- can get barged off the ball at times
Stamina- Not really an issue if you instruct him to stay forward
Price- His Price to do the sbc is ridicolous especially considering the packs that i got which were woeful
2 star week foot- can be a pain when the opponent forces on to the right, but his dribbling ensures he can wriggle out onto his favoured left foot
As I´m a big Bayern fan, I had to try Robben out immediately after I saw his SBC. So I did the loan card and got what I expected: a complete end-game card with a 2* weak foot. Everything, really everything is just great about this card: The shooting, the passing, the dribbling and even the physicality... I´d really given this card a 5/5 if he had a bit better weak foot, but Robben has to have a bad weak foot, like in reallife! So you have to (like he does it in reallife) cut in and finesse or just bang the ball, but this movement is just made for Robben! He makes it in perfection, every time... All in all I have to admit that the price of the card is a bit much, but I´m still not sure if I should complete his SBC either. But trust me, you completely get what the stats show you!

Where do I have to start? This living legend has been my favourite player for so many years. He is so awesome. His shooting is better than anyone else. I thought that 86 IF HM Son was a god. Well, I hadn't used this 93 Robben yet. Any shot with his left foot is an instant goal. You shouldn't be using his right foot, but you probably know that already. His longshots are magnificent as well as his finishing. His finesse shots are magnificent and his normal shots are just as good. His dribbling is second to none(perhaps to Messi, but let's not mention that). When dribbling, he keeps the ball so close that he can dribble past anyone without difficulty. His ball rolls and croquetas are also awesome and I instantly cum when seeing him doing the moves. Robben can even head a ball and keep someone from taking the ball thanks to his (with hawk) 91 strength and (with hawk) 87 jumping. His passing is also awesome and he doesn't lack anything with passing either. He is also super fast and he can run past any defender. Even though he's 900k to complete, he's worth every coin.
Everything
Only a little bit his length he's only 180(5'11'')
His weak foot. Just avoid it and you're fin.
To start off with, i am a division 6/5 player who usually finishes silver 1/2 in Weekend League. I am Norweigan so sorry for my english, but i love dutch players like Depay, Sneijder, Promes and of course Robben. When i saw the first Flashback card, i knew Robben had to get one. So i saved up for him this whole FIFA. When he finally arrived i was shocked at the price, but since he is my favorite player i still did him and traded in players like 90 Thiago, 88 Naldo, 89 Falcao, 86 Joelinton, 89 Savic, 89 Boateng, 89 Huntelaar and 84 cornet. But lets start with the review.
I did Robben for Weekend League because i had to get Savic and Boateng ready. My first impression was like "God, he is fast, but his finesse shots are trash". I Used him in this squad https://www.futbin.com/19/squad/6716990. I played him at RF in game With Werner ST and Reus LF. I Use marksman on him, because i want to improve his shooting and physical. I also thought about using hawk, but wanted to improve his dribbling instead and he got more shooting then. My first impression of him was ok, he played nicely and scored some goals but it was in one game he showed off his worth. I was down 3-0 and was about to ragequit, but this man does still not know what hit him. Robben scored 4 goals and won the game for me. After that i was certain. This is the best winger in FIFA. He almost carried me to Gold.Lets get to the pros and cons.
Pace: 10/10. By far the best thing about Robben. I have used some fast players this year (Grimaldo future stars, Hernandez prime icon moments, Werner 84, Rebic EL PTG, Pulisic UCL PTG, Ibarbo SBC and Depay 85 IF) but none of them were as fast as Robben. Even without Hawk his accelration felt like 100 and his pace like 97. In this FIFA Pace does not work, but with Robben it did. He feels like the fastest players in FIFA 18, and ran from evryone except Grimaldo Future stars. EPIC!!
Shooting: 8,5/10 A bit dissapointing since i expected the best finesse shots from him, but he has still good shooting. His finesse shots is as good as Draxlers 83 card, but. His Long shots are the best i have experienced in my team. Every shot from him leads to corner or goal. Still it could be better, but the best in my team.
Passing: 9/10: His long passing is "Only" 78 but they dont matter that much when you are a RF. His short passes are so accurate, and his free kicks are also good. Still could be better, but basically also the best passer in my team.
Dribbling: 9,9/10: The GOAT. All i have to say. I have not tried Messi, Neymar or Ronaldo so i dont know if he is the best, but 99 dribbling with marksman is exactly what he plays like. He is by far the best dribbler i have seen. I dont use skillmoves (Yeah i have tried but i am trash) so i cant give him a 10, but 99 dribbling is equal to 9,9 so, yeah...
Defending: 6/10: Not a defender, but he does his job at corners, he also often gets the ball from the backs/ center backs.
Physical: 8,5/10: To get things straight, dont expect him to play as Zlatan. He is not a player i would recommend as a striker because he is tiny, but as a RW or RF. He outstrenghts evrybody. Marcelo, Alba, Grimaldo future stars, Alaba, Robertson not one of them could beat him to headers. He even beat Van Dijk, Ramos and Davinson ucl PTG in headers and that was the most shocking about this card. His strength was ok, his stamina was good but with 87 jumping with marksman he is absolutely stunning. I expected this to be the big downside of his card since his earlier cards were weak too.
Overall: 9,5 The only thing bad about this card is his stamina, if you play him defensively, his strength as striker, his finesse shots and the value, but i guess that this card would be cirka a million on the market, and you get good packs for the SBC
(First Review, leave some comments please)
Pace-feels like FIFA 18
Shooting-perfect long shots
Dribbling-The best i have tried
Passing-nothing special, just great
Heading-Shockingly good
Beautiful card
One of the best dynamic designs
Definately GOAT
Maybe strength
Maybe defending
price for SBC
This review can be a bit unaccurate since i only have 30 games with him.
As a Robben and Bayern fan I must have made this SBC, well it was pretty expensive but in my opinion absolutley worth it.
Pace - 99 acceleration and 91 sprint speed are perfect combo, he`s outpacing everyone,
Dribbling - 94 agility and 98 balance plus 92 composure makes it very hard to tackle him, unless you run into defender, you are not going to lose ball,
Shooting - finishing, shoot power, positioning, long shots (all are 92+) mix into lethal mashine, but ONLY IF YOU SHOOT WITH LEFT FOOT,
Passing - he`s suitable for combinational game, but also fits into counter-attack playstyle, even passing with right foot is decent,
Pshisical - 82 stamina for a striker is more then enough, so I can`t complain.
Weak foot - just do not shoot with it, you mat pass and it`s fine, just don`t shoot unless the goal is empty
This guy, so as I didn't have that many coins left after just completing the Kluivert SBC, so I had to trade my 91 Hamsik to get this end level boss in time. There was this inner voice that said, just do it, and I'm so glad I did.
His dribbling and his pace are out of the ordinairy, that alongside his signature skill moves make him a lethal winger who easily outshines any defender. It doesn't matter if you go inside and shoot or outside and assist. 9/10 the ball will go in.
And then there is his shooting, it's unbelievable. With his power and curve, the ball flies in where you thought it was impossible to even consider trying. Ok of course, sometime you accidentally use his weak foot and the ball goes airborne, but when it touches his golden left one, jizz..
His defense stats are a but underrated as well if you would ask me, as his physicality and speed compensates a lot. It's actually pretty easy to get a ball off an opponent when you read his play right. In duel or intercepting, he is a sneaky S.o.B.
So what are his downsides? his weak foot seems to be his only issue I have encountered. According to his stats his long passes seem to be a bit off, but I haven't noticed any trouble in that either. I would just say in conclusion, if you have slept on this SBC. I'm oh so sorry bro.
shooting: Volleys,timed finesse, low driven shots,free kicks, far corner, even headers, you shall not be dissappointed.
pace: I don't even need to explain
physicality: as in real life the man is made off glass, in Fifa he is unbreakable.
dribbling: out of this world, as long as you use his skill moves
his weak foot sucks a bit, but he will compensate for it with the joy of many goals and assists.
pretty expensive
Being a Bayern and Chelsea fan, this card definitely is a nice send off for a legend who has won so many honours and been very loyal to Bayern the last decade.
Rearranged my squad and sacrificed one of my TOTYs for this very expensive Premium SBC. I had done Thiago Carniball, Gnabry League SBC, OTW Goretzka SWAP March and Boateng FUTMAS - this card cannot be missed!
Haven't had a chance to run Robben in Weekend Leage (will do later today) but already had opportunities in Rivals. Applied Hawk chemistry. So far his blistering pace has been how we remembered this great player his whole career. On that right, once he checks and curls that ball to the corner, you know you have your Flying Dutchman
is his WF an issue? Depends how you play him, you can just deploy him on the Left as well. Overall, a passing stats are very decent. He seldom gave it away
in my 4-4-1-1, his after burner running gets passed the full backs and he's in a decent passing position. If you need him to shoot, CUT IN and do it Robben style! Jumping's not so good so forget headers. He doesn't also really trot back to defend
I also have TOTGS Bale and Red Card Sterling 89, this card is right up there with those 2.
Thank you Robben, We will miss on on the field and also in FIFA. Hope to have you as an ICON soon!
- Fast (very)
- Very good stats in this Premium SBC
- Potential game changer player
- Expensive (EA rode on our emotions)
- WF may be a small issue for those who are used to players that are good with both feet
- stamina a little low for this card specific
"I have two speeds. Fast and faster. I don't just run. I take it."
Robben defines himself
When this card was for the first time on the SBC I really don't care about it because I was not interested in Bundesliga players, but when it comes out the sencond time I was so full of high rated untradeable players that I don't think twice and finish this SBC in order to try what I consider a living legend of football.
The first 20 games I play with him I put as a right midfielder in a wide 4 2 3 1 formation or as a right CAM in the narrow variation. Good, but nothing impressive.
Than some terrific Bundesliga player comes out or simply dropped in price, so I just sell everything and start to build a squad around Robben.
The result is a 3 1 4 2 formation in which the Dutchman is my RM but basically I use him as a pure winger giving him the instructions to stay forward, cut inside and make low-aggressive interception to do not waste stamina. Despite this I can say that he surprises me in a positive way concerning his defending attitudes. Do not misunderstand it, I don't want to say that he's a right-full-back but he can win headers after the goalkicks, can intercept the roaming balls and somehow I feel that the low defensive workrate is false. He sometimes cover the gaps left by FB Vidal (the CM next to him) and sometimes is Robben that pass the ball deep to the Chilean player that makes amazing runs on the same wing; then Robben cuts inside, ready to get the ball and do his move: run-cut left-finesse-goal. And he can do it pretty often: 25 goals in 49 games is a score that is very, very similar to the real counterpart (see the Bayern period stats for him).
I can define him like a prolific winger that mainly build up actions for my finishers TOTS Lewa and Prime Klose. Robben can cross for them, finish himself or just create space for other players and this is how I define a userful, ductile player that can change your team.
Now the cons: the weak foot. He can use his right foot only to step out his home. BUT: as in real life, he does the same move for 10 years and, despite this, nobody can stop him.
In game is the same thing: he's predictable because you have to put the ball on his left foot? Yes.
Can the defenders stop him? No.
Reliability on the pitch: is the perfect fusion of a striker-winger-right median
Shooting
Headers (trust me)
Crossing
Movements on the right wing, he's smart
Is a one-footed man
Sometimes stamina. Try to do not press with him
Get a decent shooting angle from any distance. Put it on net using his left foot. It curls top left corner around the keeper and in for a goal every time. It's honestly broken and I love it.
Everything except
-defense obviously
-stamina could be better but is not an issue with stay forward and/or conservative interception instructions
