Get Richarlison. For real. I specifically made a futbin account to write this review because I want everyone to try him, even people with millions of coins. He is one of the best cards I've used this FIFA. I have around 1,5 million coins but last week I decided to sell my team for a bit of profit and jump into the weekend league with an all untradeable team. All I was missing was a central CAM for a 4231 who could start at LW. I picked richarlison because he seemed like a fun card to use and cost below 1k coins. I put a marksman chemstyle on him mainly to boost his long shots.

I finished gold 1 and elite 3 with expensive teams, I am currently in gold 2 and have to win 3 out of my 4 remaining games to get gold 1 with the team I linked. Most of my goals have come from Richarlison, who puts everything away. Any decently timed finesse shot, doesn't even have to be perfect, from within 25 meters has about an 80% chance of going in, regardless of the angle. He doesn't have any problem creating space for a shot because of 5* weak foot which allows him to turn either way to go for a shot.Finishing from up close is a not a problem either, and he can hold onto the ball well thanks to his decent strength. The only downsides to Richarlison I've found are that he can feel somewhat clunky in small spaces, and his passing is a little bit off sometimes, which might cause trouble when you're facing a player who defends and pressures extremely well.

I have used the likes of Bale, IF Hulk, Son, Salah, Eriksen, De Bruyne and IF Reus at the central CAM position, and none have had a better record than Richarlison. He is currently at 39 goals and 17 assists in 35 games, all played in division 2 or weekend league.

No matter how many coins you have, give Richarlison a shot, use dragbacks to create space and use timed finesse shots whenever you are in space.

I will probably use him in a more expensive setup and see how he does in that, but from what I've seen I have no doubt that he will be great.

Ridiculous long shots

Good finishing

5* weak foot

4* skills

Decent strength

Dribbling (at times)

Passing (especially through balls, his short passing is fine)

Stamina. You have to sub him off in the 70th minute, sometimes even earlier, which is a shame because he really is the type of player that can clutch up towards the end of the match.

Underrated

i bought richarlisons otw when it was around 20k and i thought it would be a decent investment. i decided to use his normal card in my team and thought he was okay but nothing special. so when hes card got an upgrade i thought let me try him before i sell him. i decided to use him as a left cam in a 4-2-3-1 formation and all i can say is he is quite simply amazing. hes finesse shots are so OP and virtually every finesse goe...

Pombo: What a striker

Play him as lone striker, this is guy is a beast, in game formation 4231 alongside Baby Rivaldo, 88 Reus and 85 Malcom, every single match he scores, his positioning is awesome, 5 WF also awesome, and 4 star skills is very good for a tall striker, of course he cant be compared with Ronaldo, Cristiano and other legends, but for his price he is a beast, use with hawk, never mind his 80 composure, doesnt matter for this guy

What a beast

I bought this card to try as a replacement for Jesus and it is easily one of the best purchases I've made. He's incredible in front of goal, from both sides with his 5* weak foot and from all distances despite only having 74 long shots with Deadeye.While using Deadeye he has 99 Positioning and 96 Finishing, paired with his pace he is easily one of my favourite strikers and definitely my favourite Brazilian striker be...
