El Buitre

Soo Butragueno where do i start? i was lucky enough to pack him in untradable rewards! He fit perfectly in my team since my new RB Ramos and David Villa needed links, i was allready looking for an attacking icon so Butragueno fit nicely.

I have never used a player like him before he really was something for himself, The squad i included is how i played after minute 1. I first tried him in the weekend league and it was a slow start with him cause i wasn't used to the 3 star skills. I knew i just had to get used to him to get him going and boy was i right! After a couple more games he started banging in goals left right and center although he hits the post for me quite often. He started scoring 2-3 goal every match and saved my WL.

So his weakfoot, 5 stars its absolutely amazing, of all the players i have tried Butra definately got the best 5 star weakfoot of the ones i have tried. There is NO difference between his right and left foot.

3 Star skills. I never really use 3 star skill players and prior to packing Butra i was using Shapeshifter Mahrez so it was very different with the 3 star skills. I think his skills arent the best but his dribbling stats really make up for it, he has great turns and using ballroll, Dragback and fakeshots he easily passes defenders. One thing tho is that he is really weak and you will notice that at first but you will get used to not running him into players. (Marksman is a must for him)

All in all i think Butragueno is a great card that is really fun to use but i think his price right now is a little bit to much for him (1.7 mill) When you can get the likes of Messi for 650k.

I sta

Pace (His dribbling stats makes him feel really rapid)
Shooting (Amazing with both feet) But he hits the post for me a lot therefore -1
Dribbling (Get used to 3 star skills and you will not have any problems)
Short passing
Great for links

Strenght (You will notice it, but can easily get used to it)
Long passing (Not very accurate)

The God of Goals

Butragueno, the god of goals! I was lucky enough to get him in my prime icon pack from swaps and was so happy. The 5* weak foot is a gamer changer on any card for me so to get him was perfect. He's the spanish sniper, so accurate he could snipe singular coronavirus off your hands! Honestly though he really doesn't miss. The 5* weak foot is a game changer and makes it so much eas...

The best striker I've ever used

So, just a few days ago, when the second icon swaps was released, I naturally started the grind with the prime icon pack in mind, since I had chosen Maldini in the first round. When I'm opening the pack, the Spanish flag appeared and gladly I saw this guy pop up instead of a puyol or hierro. Looking at the card stats, the only flaw I was able to find was that 3 star skill moves. I tried two chemistry styles on him, Maestro ...

GREEK GOD

I got him in my prime icon pack and i was meh about his sm but he surprised me. He is so quick and good on the ball, agile... His sm cant be problem if u have him as a second striker. Strength for me is a small problem.
