Player Review

88 - TIF

5.0

Game changer

By funkmastabobo, 17-12-2018

This player is an absolute game changer for me. I used SIF Werner and whilst I liked him, there is definitely significant upgrade here. He has that explosive pace that takes him away from the defender and most are unlikely to catch him.

In and around the box, his finishing is fantastic. This includes with his back to goal, swiveling to shoot and in the air.

I use him with LM Reus up top and he is always making great runs which if you time your pass well, will beat the offside line. Once this happens, he is away and nothing is catching him.

Why do I call him a game changer? It's because through balls are now a viable option. After handily winning a weekend league game, my opponent sent me several salty messages complaining that all I played was through balls. He was obviously used to playing a high line and blocking finesse shots from range. Gives your opposition a lot more to think about. He's also the first player that I've used for more than 30 games and had a positive scoring record. All games are WL or Rivals.

His passing could be better. If he is on his own up front then you need players close to him as his mid to long range passing is not great. Stronger than I thought he would be, but he does get bumped by the stronger defenders.

Very good dribbling. The ball doesn't stick to his feet like glue but as long as you are not spamming RT/RB and flicking the stick then you should be able to keep it under control.

This player gained me an extra three wins this weekend league. Can't wait for hi 4IF :)

Deadly finishing, including with back to goal.

Insane Pace.

Positioning.

Should last well in to extra time.

Mid-long range passing.

Could be stronger.

Links aren't the best.

Fantastic

FUT Birthday is upon us and Timo Werner has become the first SBC player of the promo. I used his headliners card earlier in the year when he became 89 and was not fully impressed with the card. The passing boost due to his RW position change makes him look so much better for a hold up 1-2 pass then run on the the ball player. I ran him in a 4-1-2-1-2 (2) next to Prime Butragueno and POTM hazard at CAM for an all around dead...

IF Timo Werner The Best Striker I used so far!!!

Werner is an absolute beast he never disappoints me in the most important situations, he is very good in front of goal and can really trouble the defenders even though he has 3* skills.His key stats are finishing and pace, I can say one thing about those two thing...BROKEN.Even though he has 90 finishing he practically never misses in front of goal, and his pace is OP one through ball and he in a 1v1 with the ...

SIF Werner, the counter attacking sniper

I've only played 11 games so far with him yet (get in behind, press back line I think).He scored 7 goals and 11 assists against good players (a div 3 player in 4 friendlies and div 4-5 matches).I play him with a sniper chemistry style to increase his composure, and that makes him more 'snappy' imo as well.
