94 - Icon

5.0

Super Man Basten

By drdolphenguin, 18-05-2019

What can I say, this man has one of the most broken shots on FIFA. His shot power and accuracy are insane, his high positioning makes him placed always where you need him. With a catalyst, his passing is fixed, as well as gets a huge boost to pace. His strength helps him hold off defenders to get a powerful shot off that will most likely blast into the back of the net. He can last a full 120 being played on stay forward and if you have a pacey striker as I do [TIF Werner] has a great link-up play with him, sort of becoming a second CAM when needed. His headers are a strong pro, seeing he's 6'2 with 87 jumping and 94 heading accuracy. Overall a strong traditional 9 striker and well worth the cost of his SBC and if you'd like him tradeable, worth the 1 million.

1.Shot

2.The decent pace with a chem style

3. Enough strength to hold off a defender or a key pass or shot

4. Dribbling, his balance is average but the rest of his dribbling stats are up to par, however with 3-star skills he won't be breaking ankles left and right\

5.Heading is very good, he is a very strong aerial threat, but could be beaten by OP defenders such as Van Dijk and others.

without a chem style, his passing is below average
Because of his low balance, he can sometimes be slow to turn.
He is not the fastest player in the game, you'll have to rely on his positioning to do most of the goals.

Van Beasten

Well, after a little search finding the best baby icons that I could pack in the end of the month in the garanteed pack of fut swap, I realized that the probablity of packing something that could enter my team was very small. So I start searching the best( and affordable to my budget) icon sbc's. The one I imediately knew that was made for me was Van Basten, amazing shot, great height and strength, nice composure and dribbl...

Prime Moments Marco! Is he worth it.

I did this SBC prime moments icon Van Basten as I started to get a lil bored of having loads of different teams and I wanted a player I can use in any team. I decided to choose Van Basten as I saw that 98 shooting and I thought he'd be immense. 6 foot 2, can head the ball, good strength, immense finishing, composure... I knew he'd be a perfect out and out striker that I can rely on to put away even the most difficult chance...

Amazing value for what you get

I've never written a review before, but I had to do it for this guy, Marco Van Beasten. I did his Top Icon moments SBC to use him in this weekend league and what an amazing decision that has been. His SBC goes for around 850-900k (price for him on the market is around 1million right now) and I had a stacked club (with untradable baby Icon) so I was able to do his SBC for a little over 3...
