87 - Icon
Unbelievably good player. Bought him just to try him out, was my first huge purchase on this FIFA and although I'm still gutted to have parted with 470k of coins, he hasn't disappointed! In 7 games he's scored 10, most of them worldies and set up 5 too. Gets in excellent positions and has enough stamina to last a full match. Incredible range of passing, great control of the ball too and has enough pace to be in the game this year (would have struggled in prev. FIFA games). If this card is this incredible can only imagine how good his 89 and 91 versions are. I play him in a midfield 3 with a holding mid and a high/high mid next to him to do a lot of the defending and running, freeing him up to produce magic on the ball! I haven't listed his tackling and strength as weaknesses because anyone using this card should already know not to expect either of those things from it. What you get is quality passing, control, movement and shooting!
Passing and vision - pinpoint even if long range.
Shooting - outside the box especially but also a solid finisher from closer in with his 92 composure.
Positioning - seems to be involved all game and gets back in for tackles as well as pushing forward.
Price is high
3 star skills and weak foot (isn't noticeable to me though)
Perfect play maker...if you have enough coins to buy this icon you must do it..especially if you are fan of MU. His passing and vision are magnificent. His position on the field is about the centre line. He has a good interception and his tackling is ok.
Long Shots....)))...almost every shot is a goal...it's like a gun shot if you use timed finishing.
I play him with hunter and his pace is nice
He has no problem with agility and he feels like a butterfly in game.
Passes, especially long passes!
Great long shots
Positiong on field
Perfect play maker and box to box player
None
Agility is better then in his stats
Pace is not a problem if you play with hunter or shadow
When I packed this guy in my Baby Icon pack, I was gutted. On paper his stats are terrible, slow with average shooting. Oh how I was wrong, this man is an absolute beast!! Can scores from literaly anywhere, his long shots are INSANE they always fly in. I played him at CDM for over 150 Games and despite his terrible physical and defending he was incredible. In game due to his height he feels incredibly quick and his interceptions are amazing!! Such a steal and a Quality card and acctually feels like an Icon!
