Player Review

81 - IF

3.5

The slow, but dangerous tank

By CondensedSky, 02-01-2019

This is one of those players you will never expect to be good, and yes, he has some MAJOR downfalls but he has some great stats which, when used in the right way, may make him a unstoppable scoring machine.

As he is a former AZ Alkmaar player, I was hoping to get him from my WL rewards and actually use him, which I did.

I have played 131 games with him, he scored 79 goals, assisted 48 and most importantly: he was 131 games of fun.

When seeing the opponent's squad I always low-key hope to see the opponent using defenders like Azpiliqueta, Nacho Fernandez or Thiago Silva since this guy will demolish them in the air since he is 6'6/1.97cm's with 80 jumping on top of that.

Obiously, his biggest pro's are his height and then having his jumping on top of it. He wins headers from everyone, just make sure you have him on stay central, have "players in the box" on a high setting and have some decent crossers to deliver those crosses which make him so good.

He physically will bully a lot of defenders with his 88 strength and length and out-head defenders like van Dijk and Rio Ferdinand.

He will score you a lot of corners, make sure he's at the 1st goalpost and get the ball somewhere near him.

He's a deadly finisher with deadeye which makes his positioning and finishing 99 and his shot-power 95.

Deadeye will also up his passing a bit, but you'll mainly want to focus on using his shortpassing when using him.

He has a good 86 stamina and H/H workrates, which allows him to try and get the ball when the ball is being passed to the opponent's defenders.

Now, he does have a bunch of cons.

For one, he has no pace. If you're looking for pace, this guys is not the player you want to put as a striker, look at someone like Werner instead.

Secondly, he's a stiff tree when it comes to dribbling. Don't even attempt trying to get past a few defenders with him, he will lose the ball before you get 3 touches in.

And his longpassing is just plain bad, you will most likely lose possesion.

This card is mostly fun to use, not particularly good. He can be a monster, but he has to be used properly for that to happen.

I personally am looking forward to another IF since he will be 84 rated then, I hope EA will bless us with that card soon.

EA. What have you done. I was but a mere youngling when the first inform of this card was graced to me, and after playing a single game I was gifted 5 goals, a rage quit, and a death threat. I felt my body go through puberty with every game, and by the time this card was I released, the first IF Weghorst was the sole cause for my lumberjack beard, and my parents divorce as they realised that my only idol in life would be Si...

So, Wout Weghorst. What is there to say about this man, except that he is an animal. I have never been so pleasantly surprised in my life. I like to play crossing football, and I can say that this man is the best Aerial Threat that Fifa has blessed me with. I played him with HAWK chem style, which gave this man the most unfair statistics that I have ever seen. 95 SHOT POWER, 93 STRENGTH, and 90 JUMPING on a 6"6 behemoth mea...

Wout Weghorst: what an elegant player!

once i reached 100 matches played with him i feel able to write a review about Wout. i played mostly fut champions matches and he never disappointed me, i builded my team around him and an easy football concept idea: crosses and high passes. in order to make it effective i chose to use a narrow 4-1-2-1-2 pairing him with TIF Poulsen and behind them UEL Rebic (the amount of strength is impressive) the rest of the team was fo...
