Now that TOTS has dropped and many high rated cards are coming out, I was really hesitant to do his sbc (worries some better cards would come out). In the end I realized I could do it for 2.9 million with all the untradeable in my club, so decided to go for it. This was by far the best decision I’ve made on FIFA.
I already had an extremely strong squad, but this card will take any team to the next level. While I am certain TOTS with similar, if not better, stats are coming out for cheaper, there something about this card that makes him better than anyone I’ve tried in the game: his positioning. I can’t begin to explain how he’s always in right place and making the perfect runs all the time. The guy always scores the crucial goal in the dying minutes of the game. I played 30 games with him, scored 40 (10 of them being winners in the last minutes). This record is even more impressive considering he plays in such a strong team, where I tend to score with various players
He’s unplayable. In terms of his finishing, he will score from anywhere as long as you have a clear shot on goal. His 5 star WF makes a huge difference, because all you need to do is make space, either on his right or left, and he will score. His dribbling is fantastic. Great hold up play, can easily play his way out of any tight situation, and can beat a defender with his eyes closed and humiliate them with his 5 star SM. He is also extremely rapid. There might be some quicker players out there, but he gets a huge pace boost when he’s running past a defender to pick up a through ball. He also scored some absolute banger volleys and long range shots.
The only criticism I could give him is that I wish he jumped just a bit higher. His heading accuracy is perfect but he sometimes he looses balls to bigger defenders. Last point is that he could also have slightly better passing (not very important when playing him st).
Overall there is just something about this card I haven’t seen in any other. Best striker I have ever played with by a mile (never tried toty Ronaldo). Don’t be scared of other TOTS because no matter how high their overall is, they’ll never be able to compare.

Could have better passing and jumping (very minor)
