88 - Flashback SBC
5.0
One of the best players in PL
By makkan00, 25-11-2018

I am a casual player who likes to get challenged (elite one level player in squad battle mode). I had Aubameyang (POTM) and Jesus as strikes in 4-4-2 formation and I wanted to try a higher rated striker. I have tried Lukaku and Kane along with Aubaeyang and finally settled on Sturridge. Mind you, when EA is offering you POTM or flashback players, they are usually special ones (if their stats are good). I was in two mind, first, to get this SBC done or second, buy Kane. I had few players in my squad so this card cost me £100K top whereas Kane was cheaper than £100K.

My concern was lower stamina (72) and poor balance (69). So, I got the SBC completed and ohh boy, I am glad that I have done it.

This player has transformed my front line. The first thing you will notice about him is his paces, making runs and appearing at the right place at right time. He was man of the match for his first three matches. He is fast, he is aerial threat and pairs up well with Aubameyang. Keep him on the front RIGHT and he will put the balls in, no matter what! He has played 14 games and scored 20 goals so far which is > one goal / game. This has made me write this review as this player deserve praise and thanks to EA to create his card.

I used Sniper chemistry to complement his attributes and ended up with finishing (99), positioning (92), agility (90), balance (74), Reactions (90), ball control (92), dribbling (96) and composure (93). He keeps the ball well, dribble really well and finish anything you give him around and inside the box. His first touch finish and finesse shots are out of the world. Mind you, he uses the outer edge of the foot as well.

Now, low star weak foot. Is this a concern? I have not noticed it in all honesty. Stamina reading is false as Aubameyang and him both finishes 90 minutes easily. In last 10 minutes both are tired however both make runs as they do in the first minute.

I have played with Lukaku and Kane and I found Sturridge better than both, especially dribbling and finishing.

I will personally give him 10/10. He is a special card and if you can finish this SBC around £100, then its definitely worthy. You will not get him again!

-Pace

-Finishing

-Dribbling

-Finesse Shots

-Aerial Threat / excellent header

-Works really well in the teams where you have two strikers.

-Add Sniper chemistry and no regrets!

-Low Stamina (80-90 minutes) can be problematic in ET.

-Seriously, not other issues. (Weak foot, haven't noticed it to be an issues)

Other Daniel Sturridge Reviews

Why so negative???!

Seen so many negative comments on this card's page, but decided to get it anyway, and I DEFINITELY DON'T REGRET IT! Clearly those commenting either didn't bother trying the card, or getting the card, or just can't play the style suited to it. Sturridge has electric pace, great finishing and is always in the right place when needed. Great in the air, great from low crosses and the 2 star week foot is not important due to the...
