Reviews

This year the fifa gods rewarded me for many years of almost religous devotion to fut. For the first time ever my luck had turned and I finally got the start of my dreams!

This card, though it is not the prime version, feels very much like a prime icon. He can do it all on the pitch and suits the new game play very well, with his big figure, good pace, and excellent crossing.

I used him as a left wing on the new 4-2-4 formation and from that wide position he manages to do so much. Since there aren't many good right backs, in the game right now, he is a safe bet from the goal kick. He always wins the ball, and very often, you get the chance to head it to your midfielder who sends a through ball past the defender and back to Henry. From there, you can cross it into the box, or go for goal with him. He is always dangerous from the distance, but with his 90 pace and 87 dribbling he is the nightmare of every defender as well. He is so quick on his feet, and doesn't need much time or space to send a powerful ball at the goal. Should you get into a good position to send in a cross, he is also magnificent. He will send them in with surgical precision and if you have tall attacker you will bully opponents with headed efforts on goal.

"Coach why I have to play in the center?"

"Because you're BORN TO BE A STRIKER!"

Arsene Wenger reply to a young Henry's question

So, I write this review on late July for a player that after TOTS and Futties is maybe a little bit underpowered, but if you're a casual player like me and you like use Icons and expecially you're a fan of Henry you cannot miss this gem.

I want from the formation in which Henry was in, I like to make past and present teams and Arsenal was one of them. Starting from the left median in a wide 4 2 3 1 formation and switch him into lone striker position in a narrow 4 2 3 1. Behind him in central CAM position Dennis Bergkamp to form one fo the most incredible partnership I saw in FUT so far.

As a striker I was impressed about the ability of Henry to cut down from a wide position stopping high passages from behind: he makes perfect runs, absolutely perfect. After controlling the ball with grace (his ball control feels higher than 89) he's able to overrun every single defender in game (with Hunter style). It seems to be again if FIFA 15 when the only thing you need was a pacey striker and the job is done. But Henry is much much more. Is a perfect mix of strenght, grace, pace and finesse. EA just do a good job to resemble the real Henry sensation when you play with him, you got the sensation to have a player that can take the ball in the middle of the pitch and score a goal that no one else can score.

I'm a bad player, but he's the only striker on my whole FIFA 19 experience that got more goals than games.

So go on the market, by him and put the Arsenal kit (if you are a neutral supporter like me). Then switch the English commentary and listen at Martin Tyler that in every sigle game will shouts "THIERRYYYYY HENRYYYY! what a goal! is a normal day of work for TH... hat trick for him!"
