Player Review

80 - Normal
4.0
R.Jiménez - Cheap and worth as a taco
By NosPegan, 01-11-2019

[Disclaimer: I've been using him since first day of Fifa20, mostly in my World Class - Leyend Squad Battles]

[2nd disclaimer: congrats mexicans, you have one hell of a player - said by a fellow Spanish speaker :_ D ]


I'm not a pro player nor an expert when it comes to make a review, but I should say "Bravo" to this card. It feels way more good that his card actually says, as in real life. Of course, we can all agree that there are far more better strikers to use, even more outside the Premier, but I still can't leave him out of my team.

Don't be fooled by the 79 Pace, it is a bit tanky when it comes to start running. It won't be the Rashford type, but he would make it trough if you create a little bit of space for him to outrun the defenders. He is strong too, what felt as a plus to me when a rather not so tall but quick defender try to outpower him. You can also trust in his shooting. Not Agüero level shooting, but the power and the 5 weak foot will guarantee you some good goals... and I mean pretty great goals. They way he turns when receiving a pass is unrealisticly perfect. I've had scored a huge amount of those goals, or even assisted, just by turning with the joystick. Talking about dribbling and passing: enough for an 80 striker as tall as him.


I've had played some more tankys as Abraham and non-Premier strikers, every one of them under 84 rating, and I love Jiménez. Its card has been magnificent for my squads battle (and for releasing Rivals and FutChamps' stress)

  • Faster than it seems.
  • Enough strengh to keep the ball when dueling again defenders.
  • Shooting power.
  • Solid weak foot.
  • Decent passing.
  • High defense workrate.
  • Lack of jumping (tall enough don't worry about that).
  • Not a good dribbler( until you get used to it).

Good for a free card

His tall and stocky-ish body type makes him look slow but he is actually really fast, outpacing van dijks with shadows and such.Suprisingly feels pretty good on the ball.

Great Finisher

So after I picked up this player from doing the objectives, I decided to try him and swap him for my 91 Owen (who's been really good btw) and Jimenez's finishing was just next tier. While Owen might have been better at finesse shots, more agile and more meta, this dude just scores from anywhere. He seems to have 200 shot power with his rocket shoots, and the 4* weak foot feels more like 5 because there was barely any differ...

Jimenez Review

So I just started playing Fifa again recently. I played through all of Fifa 18 and some of Fifa 19. And for his value (being free) he is a very good player for people who may be in lower divisions or maybe just plays for fun. He feels pretty fast in game and the dribbling feels better than I thought it would. But still you don't want to be trying to dribble around defenders with him because of his very low balance. His sho...
