Player Review

94 - Normal
5.0
CR7
By KBars2733, 11-04-2019

Cristiano - I have been fortunate enough to pack this man not once, but twice this year - once pre-patch and once post-patch and I can honestly say that he is one of the few players that hasn't been rendered useless.


Pace

90 pace seems a little harsh, he feels faster in game - when he's sent through on goal, there's very few players on the game capable of catching him.


Shooting

All of his shooting is incredible. He's constantly getting in position for tap-ins and reboubds, his finesse shots seem crisp and accurate, his low drivens are net busters and his long shots are always on target - when he strikes the ball and it's green timed, he doesn't miss. His heading is absolutely exceptional - there have been loads of times where I've overhit crosses and Ronnie has still leapt above the opposition centre backs and powered his headers beyond the keeper - corners aimed at this guy are basically penalties.


Passing

The one aspect of this card that I actually have slight issues with - his short passing can be quite inconsistent at times, but I feel this could realistically be my fault - in an attempt to shoe horn other players into the team, I experimented with using Ronaldo as a CAM - this is 100% not the best role for his limited passing abilities. I've used CR7 in both 1 and 2 striker formations, and I have found that he seems to be more influential when used as a lone striker with CAMs with good passing to find him in good positions, rather than having Ronaldo as the supplier.


Dribbling

5* skill moves that are seamlessly pulled off, Ronaldo is a delight to dribble with - his custom animations make him very difficult to get off of the ball, and he seems to glide past players with posession, where the majority of other players would have lost the ball. At times his first touch can leave a little to be desired, but this is only when he is sprinting when he comes onto it - the same really with most players in the game.


Defending

Nothing major to report here - his strength does help him when pressing opposition defenders when they're in possession, his height and jumping is also a massive bonus when defending corners, he has a nack of getting infront of his man and clearing well.


Physicality

The man is a unit. 84 strength with the Marksman chemistry style, he bullies full backs when he's running through and more than holds his own against the majority of CB's in the game (minus TOTYs). His jumping is incredible - 6 foot 2 and 99 jumping leads to many a goal from crosses and corners as previously mentioned, not many can compete with him and he has out jumped opposition goalkeepers on numerous occasions

  • Incredible shooting across the board
  • Strength
  • Jumping and heading combination
  • 5* Skills
  • Custom animations help with dribbling, shooting and jumping


  • There are no negatives for Ronaldo - worth every single coin, has single handedly won me more games than I can count

God Cristiano Ronaldo will save you

God Cristiano Ronaldo TOTY is the greatest card in FUT. Like God himself, he can do anything and everything. He wins every header, scores every shot, makes every pass... God hates bullies but Cristiano Ronaldo is God so he's allowed to bully everyone on the pitch and win every single duel against any defender or midfielder. EA have decided to add timed finishing in Fifa 19 which is the most overpowe...

The review CR7 deserves

Hello everybody! And welcome to the very first player review we are doing. A little intro about who we are and why we doing this.Me and my roommate we share our FIFA account and split the futchampions games, we play one half each and it actually works pretty well, half stress and if one of us does not win the game, the other one will.
