90 - Icon

5.0

Henry the BEAST

By freben, 29-09-2018

This year the fifa gods rewarded me for many years of almost religous devotion to fut. For the first time ever my luck had turned and I finally got the start of my dreams!

This card, though it is not the prime version, feels very much like a prime icon. He can do it all on the pitch and suits the new game play very well, with his big figure, good pace, and excellent crossing.

I used him as a left wing on the new 4-2-4 formation and from that wide position he manages to do so much. Since there aren't many good right backs, in the game right now, he is a safe bet from the goal kick. He always wins the ball, and very often, you get the chance to head it to your midfielder who sends a through ball past the defender and back to Henry. From there, you can cross it into the box, or go for goal with him. He is always dangerous from the distance, but with his 90 pace and 87 dribbling he is the nightmare of every defender as well. He is so quick on his feet, and doesn't need much time or space to send a powerful ball at the goal. Should you get into a good position to send in a cross, he is also magnificent. He will send them in with surgical precision and if you have tall attacker you will bully opponents with headed efforts on goal.

Pace - He is fast, so good when beating the defenders to the through ball

Dribbling - His dribbling is great, very quick and agile, and you can send fast balls at him as his 89 ball control, will get everything under control very quickly

Shooting - 93 positioning and 91 finishing really speaks for itself. He gets into some very dangerous positoins and finds the back of the net so, so often.

Physicality - When using hawk on him, he has 77 jumping, 83 stamina, 85 strength, and 76 aggression pair that up with him being 188cm tall and you can imagine how good he is. He wins every header, he is not easily pushed off the ball and he manages 90 minutes easily. Such a Beast!

Passing - His passing is very good. Whether it's on the ground or in the air, you can always count on Henry to deliver the ball safely to the other players on the pitch

Icon - He links with everyone and helps out with hybrid as he strong links into all the french players of which there are so many in fifa 19! Besides that, there is just something about icons. They just feel better than "normal" players, like winning the ball more often and managing shots other players wouldn't be able to pull off.

Price - He is very expensive, I would never have got him if not for my insane pack luck. However - should you have around 1 mil laying around, he is definetely worth it.

Bald Beast

i have played 32 games with 25 goals in champs in division 1. He is absolutely unbelievable. I received this guy in the mid icon sbc and thought another useless lw to sit on the bench in my team. I was wrong.I played him as a striker in a 41212(2) and 4231 and every time he got the all i felt i could glide passed opponents. I abuse the iniesta skill move with this guy and is shown with his 94 ball control(with chem style) s...
