WHAT A BEAST
By Wmenon06, 04-07-2019

he is by far the bestest player on fifa, i play more than 100 games for him. i use him with moments pele maradona and toty and tots ronaldo and messi but he outshines all of them and has a better goals per game ratio with any of them. my english not good me from russia, my bad

his free are so good, better than cr7s or messi and 46 stamina is not problem as his is so good for shooting and dribbling. his long shot is amazing and his finesse shot is shot is so good. 28 balance is lie and he is better than toty messi.

nothing, but he is little too short

RoboCrouch: The Goal Machine
By EthanPugh, 02-06-2019

Just as a foreword, I think this card may actually be broken or something. His stats do not reflect the way he plays at all and most of the time I feel like I'd prefer to use him instead of my current strikers, TOTS Jovic and Prime Kluivert. Saying that, I use this card primarily in friendlies' and Squad Battles and have a bit of fun with his card; I don't use him online because, as you'll see, he struggles to stay in the game for longer than 40 minutes. Although, the few games I've taken him online he's done exceedingly well for the time he's actually on the field/able to breathe.


Pace


I'd be lying if I said he was fast. He just isn't. He has small bursts of pace throughout matches that come out of nowhere but they take off maybe 2-3% of his stamina alone so I wouldn't recommend trying to use him for running. The way I use him doesn't really require pace but nonetheless, his pace is awful. Just try not to hit it over the top for him to run onto and definitely do NOT set his instructions to get in behind because you'll have absolutely no fun.


Shooting


I can safely say I've never used a player in any of the FIFAs I played UT on (13 through 19) that can score goals as consistently as Crouch. His stats would suggest he can't score anything that isn't a tap-in; his stats must have been input incorrectly. Crouch is able to score 30 yard shots pretty flawlessly and even in awkward situations. In all the games I've played with him, he consistently hits the target from all distances ranging from to 10 to 30 yards.


Another thing that's clearly incorrect is his shot power. His shots are faster than most of the strikes I take with Jovic. Something that is potentially accurate is his curve when shooting although he pulls off absurd finesse shots seemingly randomly without me even pressing finesse. His positioning is also spot-on. He finds himself in enough space to turn and shoot despite not having good pace or dribbling, which is very impressive.


Passing


Crouch can definitely perform a key pass here and there and assists a fair amount of goals for me, but they're not usually anything spectacular. That being said, I wouldn't expect a great deal of passing considering I tend to just press shoot whenever I get the ball around the penalty area with him.


Dribbling


60% of the time, turning can feel like a real challenge and does often cause a loss of possession. In spite of that, he does usually body the ball well and finds himself in positions where he doesn't need to turn. His ball rolls and drag backs look like they're in slow-motion because of how long his legs are, so I wouldn't recommend to perform skills to often.


Defending


He's got long legs so he pokes them out a lot to block passes and makes the occasional tackle through people's legs and that's pretty useful. Otherwise, he's useless for actual defending with his dreadful pace and stamina. Bringing him back just cuts off 5 extra minutes of useful playing time with him before he needs a breather.


Physical


Shouldn't be strong but he is. He muscles off defenders with ease if he's in front of them and wins most aerial battles in and out of the box. He doesn't score a lot of headers for me because I like his shooting but he wins corners from the headers or just helps retain possession.


Something I wish I could change is his awful bloody stamina. He really can't last a full half, which is upsetting because I'd like to use him for an entire game. Alas, nothing can be done. He goes down by about 10 fitness if he's used until the final whistle and by that point, he usually can't jog properly. If a game goes into extra time without being subbed off, he'll almost certainly get an injury or just pass out.


Conclusion


This might seem like a bit of a joke, but he's worth trying against a friend considering he's worth at most 1000 coins. If you can't afford the likes of Ronaldo or someone else with insane shooting, just buy Crouch and hit a volley; it's the same effect really.

  • Very tall.
  • Long legs.
  • Extremely good shooting; broken dev-card.
  • Decent passing for a silver.
  • Kinda strong.
  • Snail's pace most of the time.
  • Stamina feels like it was set to 0 by accident
  • Poor agility; feels like a lorry.
  • Bad dribbling; better luck using Neuer or Ederson.
