Player Review

90 - Winter Refresh
4.5
IbraGODovic
By rafaqfangueiro, 27-02-2020

SOOO, 1st of all sorry for my english. I was somehow able to pack 90 WR Ibra in an untradable pack, meaning that, no mater what, i had to use him in my main squad since i dont have the best team ever (team in game in the link below). Well, after i saw some reviews of him (most of them giving bad feedback) i decided do give it a go and have fun... im a G1 player currently playing in DIV2 and i gotta tell you.. this man is a beast... In the first 4 games i used hunter to boost is pace to the max but then i realized that dribble is what this card needs the most, so i sticked do sniper... used him in a 442 formation with werner 90 as the other ST and NIF mertens and dembele as RM and LM. (and again, teams link below)

and oh god, he is amazing. In 30 games he scored 43 goals and assisted 12


Pace - 8/10: Ibra has 88 pace but i gotta tell you, that even without the pace boost from chem styles he was quick for a man of his size. most of the time he would just outpace defenders due to his acceleration that is 89 i believe.


Shooting - 9,5/10: This right here might be the best reason why ibra is so so good, he simply does not miss.. very clinical inside of the box, even headers and volleys, he is amazing in the shooting chapter, outside of the foot, low drivens, decent curve, he does it all, and i think that happens cause of is composure, he wont shake and dont forget the 4 star WF. i wont give the 10 simply because there is no player that can score everything. Expect him to be on the right place at the right time every single time due to his positioning


Passing - 7/10: Dont expect him do be your game organizer, he has enough passing to do some nasty 1-2 but beyond that he wont do as you expect.. but, he can easily do some trough passes and trust me that he can hold up the ball pretty good so take advantage of that to win space and time when u make passes with him, his high composure will also help in the passing chapter.


Dribbling - 8/10: At first when i was using hunter i would say his dribbling would be a 5/10, ye... 5... but, with sniper i can say u have your problem solved... after i use sniper on ibra he started to preform, he turns really fast, respondes to the skill moves really fast, feels smooth on the ball and the 5 star skills are a good bonus since u can do a lot more skills that will help your attacking gameplay. And due to his size you can surprise every player that dont except ibra to execute that fast, either the turn or the skills, the only downside on this card is his balance... sniper boosts it a little but sometimes when he loses a strength challenge with the oponnent CB he will fall to the ground


Defending - ?/10: I dont think i can say a lot about defending, due to his agression he will intercept immediately afeter losing... he can win some duels on defensive corners. Since headers are not very good this year dont except him to score for you in every corner, but he will score some


Physicality - 9/10: And we're reaching to the stat that makes this card beautiful.. the physical stats.. let me start with the strength, he has 99 so be ready to see some VVD and Campbells get bullied by your ibra, it does not happen everytime but it will happen, he can pretty much bully everyone in this game.

Then his agression, its really useful if you play with an high pressing team like me that has instructions to try to recover the ball after losing it.

The other downgrade is his stamina.. 68 its kinda boring cause you can only play him till minute 90', after that he will be playing like he has cement on his toes.

-Pace (even without hunter you can say he his good)

-Shooting

-Dribbling

-Opponents underestimate him due to his size

-PHISICALLITY

-5 star skills and 4 star wf

-Size

-Attacking Presence (good positioning)

-Balance

-Stamina i think if you have to play beyond 90 minuted

Actually not a bad player at all

Did him as soon as he appeared beacause Zlatan. First of all, he is awesome just because you get to use one of your favorite players. I have heard people complain about him not being up to the task because he „feels clunky”. I am here to tell you that he is not clunky; he is tall. Know the difference!

True beast

Scream Zlatan works great as a powerful, central striker or CAM. For me he immediately became the focal point of my offensive play, as his strength and size makes it hard for defenders to bully him and his dribbling makes it easy to win space for a shot or a pass. I usually use him alongside a small, quicker striker as Zlatan lacks somewhat in speed. The speed works fine in most situations, but he will not outrun most defen...

An Elite 3 Player's Review of the Swedish God

I read the other two reviews for Ibra, and despite those reviews being very good and shedding some initial light on the card, some of you may be wondering if he is a viable option for gold 1 and higher level players. So, here's your answer!PACE: 8/10- I mean, 94 pace explains itself. Ibra is very rapid, but if you can, play him as someone who is the 'focal point' or target man in your team. You want to pla...
