Player Review

92 - Icon

5.0

El Pistolero (Hristo Stoichkov)

By sweatygoalssince2003, 31-01-2019

Only way I can start this review is by saying he's INSANE! His SBC cost around a mil in total, as I used my prime Rivaldo (also a good player) as the Icon. To describe Stoichkov or even compae him to a single other player is impossible, because there's simply no one like him. He has the pace of Mbappe, the finishing of Van Basten, the dribbling and ball control of Bergkamp and the physicality of Ibra (his strike partner). Overall, he's an absolute monster and game changer and worth every penny.

Pace: this dude is rapid! outpaces almost any defender when in a full sprint, rapid on and off the ball.
Shooting: 99 in every shooting stat but long shots (still a 92) with Hawk, his left foot is unmatched. If he's in the box with almost any space, 8-9/10 times the ball is in the back of the net
Passing: really solid for a ST, gets a ton of assists (particularly on crosses)
Dribbling: excellent on the ball and in transition, can beat any defender with a simple feint.
Physicality: high aggression enables him to win the ball back easily, and his high strength makes him a pain to bring down.
Stamina lasts all game easily
4*SM

3*WF, which barely affects him
5'10 isn't ideal for a ST but he makes it work

The Gunslinger

I got Stoichkov thinking that he was going to be an amazing forward and my god was i right. I played him with a hawk which gave him 97 pace, 99 in every shooting stat aside from long shots as well as 88 strength and 99 aggression. The man is absolutely incredible... 67 goals in 41 games later he is my second favourite player behind Prime Best. He feels absolutely rapid, pace could be 199. His shooting is un-fucking-believab...

Amazing, but not so much coin worth

Very good card. I packed him so that is why im saying coin worth is high for this card. Worth it in different ways. Finishing is spot on. Outsides finess or power shot; makes no difference. You don't really need a striker with passing, but its good to have one. doesn't feel as fast as he looks card wise, but is still fast, don't get it wrong. He can hold up play, but doesnt have as much strength as his card says. Fells weak...

Stoich 2 Glory

This is my second review on Futbin. I know Stoichkov isn't one of the most popular players in FUT, but he is so so good on this game. He's the best forward I've owned so far. I've used Aguero, Lewandowski, Neymar, 2IF Salah, Mbappe, Flashback Pato, Flashback Sturridge, etc... I put my entire team into his SBC. Including, UCL Firmino, Aguero, Kante, 2 IF Van Dijk, Varane, Rui Costa, IF Alisson, Futmas Alli.(all undtradable)...
