Player Review
83 - MOTM
This year EA forces players to grind friendly games and squad battles to achieve special cards, points, etc... everybody knows.
So, why don't try to have some fun in this non-competitive modes? Maybe buinding exotic teams?
Checking list: Old Trafford Stadium? Taken for 200 coins. Manchester United kit? I got it! What else... oh yes Champions League stadium theme? here we go... quick buy on this orange MOTM card? We do! Let's go.
I already found a Hawk style on him, so without expectations I decide to keep it on him and try to have some good memories watching Rooney on the pitch... I used him as a central median, but with attacking licence. Well, on the first game I scored a diving header catching a cross from the left. BOOM! after that on another attacking situation the ball rebounds outside the box and Rooney hit a volley with his left foot, approx 20 meteter away from the net.The shot was so powerful that the ball flies like a rocket in the top corner. Than I saw Rooney makes his signature move. Nostalgia. And I'm not a Red Devils fan, just a football lover...
So for one time forget about Weekend league, grinding results using the stay cover tactics, take the ball possession for 80 minutes... and enjoy the game. You may find also some hidden gems, like this guy.
All in all is just a game
Shooting: actually is more consistent and powerful than the stats suggest, not clinical but you can really feel the 99 shot power.
Strenght: combination of good balance and strenght makes him a tough guy
Passing: more than enough for a striker
Fun factor
Signature move after scoring
Stamina: high defensive workrates will proof this player, he will stand 70 minutes... but we will wait for his flashback with 90+ stamina... did you hear EA?
Speed: same as above
