Marco van Basten

Two words : Goal machine

Needed a top rated striker for my team, van Basten definitely was the answer.

Guaranteed goals with shots from inside the box.

I use him as my lone ST in a 4-3-3.

Pace : Putting a hawk in him does enough to boost his pace.

Shooting : OP stats for shooting, his goal stats speak for itself. No weakness in any aspect of shooting.

Passing : His passing stats are his lowest but he does not seem to misplace any passes. As a ST, it does not cause a lot of problems.

Dribbling : Quick and agile. Easy to move around and beat defenders if dribling is your game. Skill moves are only 3 star though.

Physical : Not the strongest but can hold of most defenders to make the shot.

His jumping is also one of his best stats. He will out-jump everyone to get that header in.

Stamina drops a little towards the end but it does not affect his shooting. Can change the game with his shots at any time of the game.

1.Shooting. His finishing is his weapon, has a strong weak foot too.

2.Heading ! He will jump over everyone and with his 90 Heading acc. you dont have to worry.

3.Dribbling. Quick and agile, can beat defenders if dribbling is your game.

1.Pace (low for the coins you spend)

2.Skill moves - 3 star

3.Physicality and passing

Best ST I used so far

Last year I tried some Van Basten card (not the prime card) and it was a big disappointment. I sold him very quickly and lost coins.This year I was afraid of spend coins with him, so I tried a lot of strikers:- The striker I most used was Aubameyang and he is really really good! He is the best striker at PL in my opinion. Anyway, I wanted someone more clinical so I tried other cards;- I tried...

A slower but stronger CR7

I've tried many different strikers and many different play styles this year in order to keep this game fun. Played strikers like Messi and Butragueno who were able to carry the ball from the middle of the pitch to the goal line, Suarez and Lewa who performed so well in the first few months of the year and was also decent later, Carniball Inaki Williams and Bale who ran and score, ran and score. Prime Raul who was suc...
