Good, but not worth it

By KLoaf, 01-05-2019

So as an Arsenal-fan I love playing with this guy as a CAM, right behind the King himself (Henry), he gets the job done, but for that price I expect more. I did his SBC and got it for around 600k, so at least i did not spend the 1,5m he cost at the time. He is without a doubt the most frustrating player I have ever used. He can score absolute screamers yet fail to score tap ins. He can fire those driven shots in from anywhere, yet misplace a finesse shot by a couple of Peter Crouchs'. That 96 shooting feels like a lottery, press the shooting button and he will either show that 96, or do like a 54. And he can not. stop. hitting. the. post. In the 188 games I've used him he has scored 95 times and assisted 101 as a CAM in a 4-2-3-1 (gets the job done as stated above), but he should have at least 50 more goals. So many clear cut misses, misplaced shots, hitting the post, firing out of the stadium almost. Very inconsistent shooting.

His short passing is good, as the stats show, and his long passing is not good, as the stats show. He his horrible at setting Henry up, hits the defenders almost every time when trying to play a through ball, but is amazing in the box at finding the right man. This, and his relatively low pace makes him an undesirable CAM, I used Catalyst to boost his biggest flaws, and the speed is now ok, the long passing is not affected.

The dribbling is really smooth and he can croqueta through an entire defence with ease. His physique is good enough, will be bullied by Campbell and VVD, as will everyone, but can stand his ground in midfield. Decent defending as well, tried him as a cm couple of games, did okay defensively.

All in all, if you like me love Dennis, get him, he will get one goal or assist per game, but for that price you can get so much better players. I feel no real difference from Eriksens TOTGS, which is the best CAM I've used this year, except from when he shows that 96 shooting (50% of the shots he takes). For the same amount of coins I have also tried Prime Seedorf and Prime Del Piero, both better and more consistent. I wish I hadn't done this SBC because I want to get rid of him now that I've enjoyed him for a while to get someone better and more consistent, but now he is just 600k I'll never get back.

1 point per game guaranteed.
Shooting (freaking insane 50% of the time)
Short passing
Dribbling
Fun factor, it's Dennis Bergkamp for crying out loud.

Shooting (terrible 50% of the time)
Long passing, especially through balls (Y/Triangle)
Stamina, lasts 90 mins if he has 99 from the start, otherwise he will tire around 70 mins. He will not be able to play extra time.
INCONSISTENT, in everything he does. Except dribbling.

It was fifa 18, when i first time saw his card.. Not so much pace, amazing shooting, very good dribbling, great stamina, 10 on the back and great in-game model. I told my mother that I fell in love for the first time today. When his loan over, i was very upset, besause i don't have enough money to unlock his card. But i knew that he would come back. And he come back. I unlock his card for 900k on PC, for me it is a good pri...

I completed his sbc as i was looking for a new player to play my central cam position in my 4231 formation. He has been worth every penny i put into his sbc (around 800k), he scores nearly every realistic shot i take with him. His shooting is so good on the edge of the box it is a waste bothering to time any finishes he easily puts away non timed power shots. He is a much better Cam than striker in my opinion ...
