Not Worth the Coins

By FisforFifa, 16-12-2018

I have used this around 40 games and in the end I had to sell him for a loss. I expected a lot from him and put him instead of Harry Kane, next to Agüero. I would say he was only slightly better than Harry, which is ridiculous when you think about 800k difference in their price. Agüero stole the show almost every game from him. He was scoring, but it felt like he scored only when it didn't matter, like either I was losing the game, or winning the game by 2+ goals. There were many, many games that he was just invisible on the pitch especially when the game was balanced. He felt clunky and couldn't use his pace to outrun the opponents.

I would not invest my money on this card

His shooting is quite good.

He is strong.

His pace is a big let down.

Clunky.

Work rate is only medium, which I believe caused most of the problems.

Underrated ICON ST

Ever since Fifa 19 launched, I have been trying out few ST Icons with in 500k-800k budget considering this year FIFA has been harder to finish comparing to last year. Main reason I picked Van Basten (baby version) up was his traits for Finesse shots (OP this year for sure)He also provides you the Height and Strength. Played him in Div Rivals (Div 5 and 4) and also WL matches. The only in my club who...

Best ST i've ever used!

So i have been looking for a good consistent striker for so long now. I tried Ronaldo, i tried Shevchenko, i tried Cruyff, i tried Kluivert and so on. But none of them seem to be consistent for me, they could be invisible for a whole match. I needed a striker to play for me in weekend league and be consitent the whole time. So i found Van Basten, he looked insane. He is frickin 188cm tall, he has amazing shooting, agility a...

Amazing goalscoarer

My favourite player so far this year! A little dragback or a ball roll, then press r1 and do a finesse shot. If you do red timing, no problem. It is a goal. every single time. Totally recommend if you just need a beast in front of goal. Will score you a lot of headers to. I aim for him on first post corner, and he scores them too, with his height and jumping(hawk applied). I use him as Left striker, beside...
