Player Review

80 - CL
3.5
Really good mid-low tier Striker!
By kylehpp, 10-10-2018

I chose Latauro Martinez from Pick 5 Player pack for getting the champions edition. He has been extremely good for me so far. I am honestly a pretty bad fifa player, I play in the upper part of div 5 so far, and from a offensive stand point i struggle to attack and score at will. That being said, he has been fantastic for me scoring wise. I have a sniper on him because this game feels clunky as shit and was hoping the dribbling would help. He scores most of his chances for me. I would say he hits 8/10 shots in the box with people on him, and surprisingly hits an awesome amount of long shots.. He has insane power for some reason and just bangs them in especially if you get the timing right. he has really good positioning as well. headers are OP so I wont count that as a pro, but he hits them. He has negatives are ill put them below.


Um i would say if you get the big dogs like mertens, immobile, dybala, etc. They will be way better, but as of now any 86 rated striker or less is probably not better than him, belotti, to me, is miles worse then him, he can score but he doesnt really create like martinez. For the price tag your main competitor at this point is icardi, I havent used him but he doesnt look super great.


FINISHING- very good, scores with people on and off of him within the box... He even has that ability where you kind just panic-press B or O and fling the directional stick, and it happens to just fly in. I love that

LONG SHOTS - has horrible long shot attributes... like 68... but my go from like 23 to 28 he hits a lot of shots... I think a big reason for it is his shot power, I dont know what it is but it literally flies. My first green timed shot with him from like 28 to 30 was literally so fast I couldnt see it. It was sick

POSITIONING - He in really good spots for the most part.


CLUNKY - feels really... blahhh on the ball even with sniper

PACE - I really shouldn't list as a con but hes not going to run by defenders unless hes already ahead

STRENGTH - Its not bad.... BUT its underwhelming, he gets bullied a lot for some reason, and if you combine the bullying with the clunkyness, it triggers me big time.

PASSING - sucks

Simply Amazing

I packed Lautaro Martinez in my starter packs. I built a cheap 20k hybrid around him and went into division rivals Div 5 and he absolutely killed it. His turn and finesse shot was so accurate and his strength on the ball is crucial. Defo worth a buy on a RTG

Better than he looks like

Did him cause I need him for chemistry and I had not enough coins for CR7. I was very suprised how good he is. Played him in the last WL most of the time as LCAM (4-2-3-1) or ST (4-1-2-1-2(2)). For me he performed much better in midfield, his pace and physicality on the wing against the RB was a game changer in some 50/50 games. Passing and crossing are sometimes a lil problem but with an offensive left back his crossing is...
