Player Review
84 - UCL LIVE
(As of writing this review, his card is 84 rated)
I picked up Philipp as I am currently saving up for 89 Klose, and he performed above my expectations.
He delivered 11 goals and 7 assists in 10 games which is amazing as he had the likes of Reus, Gotze and Podolski behind him.
He had a slow start as I bought him with a hunter, his dribbeling was average and his finesse shots were not exceptional.
After 3 games I slapped a sniper on him, and that made a huge difference for me
.
His finesse shots and positioning became deadly and he he dribbeled with a lot more ease.
His passing was great, for a striker. This was also the main reason why I chose him over Werner's IF.
His pace was good, not outstanding but he was able to outrun defenders- That is, if he wasnt being bullied by them.
He was no good at dueling with any defenders, which is a con.
He furthermore had the issue of having too low jumping/heading stats which would've made this card a lot better than it already is.
Also, a con is his composure, which I personally had no issues with.
Overall a solid striker, he delivered for me but may be a bit pricey for his quality.
