87 - PL POTM

5.0

Jamie Vardy POTM - Fantastic Mr. Fox

By ashwin1411, 11-11-2019

To begin with, I'm basically a gold 2 or a gold 1 player. When this card was about to release I thought that this would atleast cost me 100k or 200k. But EA had other ideas and has given us one of the top strikers from EPL for about 15-20k.

I Play him at ST in 4-2-3-1 as a Get in Behind ST using SNiper Che. Now breaking down Vardy's Stats,

Pace: He is super fast and can will make crazy runs behind the opposition defense line when the get in behind instruction is given. Vardy's 92 pace feels lesser in game. He's faster that that.

Shooting: An absolute monster when it comes down to shooting. Inside the D box, Press O for goal. His 89 finishing with 89 Shot power is the best part about shooting and the he fires the ball past the goalkeeper most of the times. Haven't tested his shooting from outside the box so I'm unaware of his long shots. His 90 positioning will make him come short for asking passes and also will make him run behind the defense line without you triggering his run.

Passing: The card's main con comes into picture here. His passing is average. 71 short passing is enough to make 1-2s and runs but his long passing is bad. Don't trying putting long through balls to wingers.

Dribbling: Vardy's dribbling stats doesn't look good on stats but can be improved by using Sniper. His Agility and Balance Increases and also He doesn't give you the truck feel. His dribbling is more than enough as he has 86 composure and he'll make quick turns to linkup with players.

Defending: His 85 heading is good if you are a player who plays crosses. Vardy will head the ball into the net when he's provided with crosses. He looks and tries to intercept passes as he's very quick. Apart from this nothing else from the defending stats.

Physique: His 71 strength doesn't make him feel weak like rest of the players because he has an aggression of 91. He can be pushed off the ball by strong defenders but he'll make sure he wins the ball back using his Aggression Stat.

Vardy, a real game changer

I decided to buy this TOTSS Vardy when I saw his stats, and his price who was only 800k at this time. I wasn't disappointed. He is a real game changer, I use him for all my futchampion, and he was THE player of my futchampion. He is real fast, one of the faster player I used in the game. His shoot is amazing, one shoot= one goal with this guy. I'm not a skiller player, so his 3 stars skills wasn't a problem, but it c...

Absolute bargain!!!

When I first saw the requirements, I was like - THAT MUST BE A MISTAKE BY EA. But it's not.I've done this card basically for free - as a supersub for WL and his 86 rating - useable in SBCs.I was very curious of his perfeormance, so I slapped a marksman and used him as a supersub in every FC match today and some Rivals before - 20 matches in total. At first glance, the card seems to play exactly like the stats ...

Perfect Get In Behind ST

So I got Jamie Vardy from my guaranteed and slotted him into my team next to my Red TOTSSF Jordan Henderson (who is amazing as well) and I was excited. I play him at striker in a 4231 with Dennis Bergkamp, Moses Simon and FB Saint Maximim at CAMS and Vardy has stolen the show in champs so far. His weak foot feels like a 5* and his power shots across goal or near post are perfect. His pace is incredible, he feels faster than...
