So bad it´s unreal
By LordLarsenV2, 17-02-2019

Well where do i start... I used Shev in a 4-2-3-1 at Cam, with flashback Ibra up top as a false nine (Which means shev is at ST for most of the game)


Pace: 88 pace is decent for any striker, top that with a chemestry style with boost and you can surely expect to outrun most defenders. But not ol´ Shev.. Despite his decent looking pace, he feels very slow in-game, where centerbacks such as Laporte and SIF Fabinho caught him all the time.


Shooting: Just a no from here. Compared to flashback Ibra he hits nothing og the post. Timed finesses from outside the box gous into the stands. open nets are guaranteed to hit the posts. The only value i have found from his shootings are his free-kicks, cause they are magical! However, free-kicks are lesser important in this case


Passing: 72 passing makes you wonder, whether he can make a good and key pass. The answer is no. Even with boosted passing he rarely makes an important pass that benefits the team and creates a goalscoring chance, and that´s unfortunate..


Dribbling: With good looking stats, the card looks promising, but again he feels clunky and slow, and the 3* WF does NOT work in his favor. The dribbling is clunky and he often falls over the ball.


Defending: Can´t defend, Does not intercept passes and contribute in defense.


Physical: His lack of aggression makes this card even more disappointing. He does not head anything in og chase a ball like other strikers (Ibra, etc). furthermore, his stamina is a huge letdown as well, meaning i subbed him out in the 70th minute with Mbappé, if i haven´t lost my mind over how bad the card is before hand.


So.. 160 games in, competing only in Rivals and WL and this card is just disappointing.. Don´t buy him. There are much better alternatives out there

Prime Shevchenko review

I used this card for just over 50 games and I'll tell you all he is an ANIMAL. In the 50 games he scored me 83 goals and they were from all distances and angles. He is hands down the best card ive uses so far and a great benchmark player for the rest of the game.Pace.His pace is phenomenal and combining with extremely high attack positioning he makes outstanding runs and can keep away from defenders...

The Real Sheva

Completed Sheva SBC two days after the release and since then he is my main striker. Played him in 3 squads over that period, but the formation was pretty much the same. To start, I must admit it was an unplanned move to do the SBC. The first two weeks were painful for me to cope with a striker that only has 3* skill moves. But every single game with him showed me that there are...

Waste of coins

I used this card for 30 games, all weekend league. In general i Like Shevchenko and I had his card on Fifa 18 where he was an absolute goal machine. So I decided to unlock his prime card when he was out as an sbc. I spend around 700k for the card, but save your money and unlock another icon. He feels very very slow, his positioning is very bad (the card says 94, with hawk he got 99), he never wins a header and he feels very...
