87 - Flashback SBC
4.0
The Little Target Forward
By Blaj4, 22-11-2018

Everyone keeps talking about he isn't worth it, and that Aguero and Aubameyang are better, but I feel most of these people haven't actually USED him, just looked at his card. He took a bit of getting used to, but he is a quality striker and a great target forward.


Pace: Honestly not as quick as I would have hoped, might be better with a hunter(I use finisher). His acceleration is good as his card suggests, but Varanes and other center backs run him down fairly well. Good enough for breakaway goals though.


Shooting: Sharp and clinical. Long shots aren't too great, but with Finisher chem they are up to 86 which is more than enough. Very good at turning and shooting. Heading is fantastic. Scores from a lot of crosses and near post corners. Almost like a small Harry Kane with more speed in the box.


Dribbling: 3* skills are always a let down, but his close control and dribbling is pretty good. Not as agile as I would have hoped, but good enough for a lone striker.


Passing: Passing is not great as you might guess. As a lone striker in 4231 he also needs to create, and at times his passing has not been stellar. He can still play nice through balls and make quick 1-2s but not quite a maestro.


Defending: Low defending workrates, doesn't really try. I prefer it though because he has low stamina.


Physical: Suprise suprise. Chicharito out jumps everyone. Machine in the air. Still can't beat tall centerbacks all the time but his jumping allows him to be a great option on corners and breakaways. His strength is not very good however, and with his small body his is pushed off quite easily by big backs. His stamina is fine. People are overeacting about stmaina, he's a striker with low defending workrate, and you don't even notice it.

Incredible finisiher

This card has caused some real controversy recently. Everyone in the comments is at such a split decision on whether to the sbc or not. I took a gamble and did it think I have nothing to loose. This man has completely changed the game for me. I was close to giving up on FIFA this year because of the struggles of finding a striker that works for me. He is just an irritant to play against and I would absolutely hate to play...

Think about this

I don't write many reviews on this platform, and I'm definitely not the best FIFA player out there, but for some players i think it's important to write one from my own experience. As the title says, think about this when you are planning to do this... It will cost you around 120k I believe, for that money, you have Kane, Lewandowski, Cavani, Almost Lukaku... But when i saw this card i wanted to do it right away. I didn't e...
