95 - TOTS
4.5
Unexpected best striker
By Bastelinho, 30-06-2019

When I was supposed to collect my WL-Reward after the Ligue 1 TOTS I had to choose between either Cavani or Lala. It was a really hard choice since I already got Laporte tots to link Lala with. Nethertheless I went for Cavani and managed to build a Team around him. I Use him as ST in a narraw 4231 connected with Aouar (95), Vieira (91) and Di Maria (95). The most of the 47 games were during the WL and I am so happy for that decision to choose him. I was worried about the balance and the speed, since you really need to catch up with really good players in WL and Division 2 in Division Rivals. So I slapped an engine on him and it works pretty fine for me, To put the result in a nutshell: He might be not the fastetst and passing ist not his strongest pro aswell, but it feels so good to score with this lad. I guess 50% of the goals are headers and an other 30% are one touch finishers. His positioning is fabulos and his finishing just astonishing. Moreover he is really dangerous with both, his strong and his weak foot. When he is near the box he either takes a intelligent run to beat the defence line or stands just perfect to hit a one touch wonder. For a long time I didn't score with corners. Cavani changed it.

+ Finishing (Headers, strong foot but also weak)

+ Positioning (Always on Spot)

+ Jumping (He is able to beat quite tall defenders due to his jumping and positioning)

+ Stamina (Really enough for 120 mins)

+ Aggression (He goes for lost balls)

+ He fits in my short passing style with one touch football and crossings

- I guess you can use him as a central striker only

- Passing feels some kind of shaky sometimes, espacially long passing

- 3 Stars Skills reduce fun in game, but at least I can arrange myself with that

- You can get around defenders, but it is not as smooth as it might seem statwise for dribbling. The fact that im rather a short passer than a dribbler might explain that feeling

- Hard to link when you have to use Ligue 1 players

Honest review on Cavani

I purchased Cavani for a total of 48,000 coins and he's worth every penny of it. He scored 45 goals in 39 games for me, most of my games are from Division Rivals (Div 5) and a few from Squad Battles. I can't remember how many time this guy saved my ass from losing a game. His shooting, and positioning are perfect for a Striker, plus he has Poacher in his Specialities, so he'll always fi...

Absolutely amazing!!

I bought this card wanting a strong tall physical striker that would atleast handle some defenders. I play along side Butragueno I prefer the 1 small fast striker and 1 big tall striker. Combo works well for me. I was genuinely shocked I didn't expect him to be this good. His jumping and headers always go in! From crosses to corners he will guarantee you goals. Weak foot is good too for 3*

Converted by Cavani

First time to ever post a review of a player, but felt it was necessary to summarise Cavani as he's not a popular player. Firstly, Cavani is like no other player I've played with. His shooting is at an icon level. Inside the box, he will drill low shots into the corners. From outside the box his finesse shots are immense, whether using a timed finish or not. There's no real need for the timed effort as he ...
