90 - FUT Birthday SBC

5.0

Unbelievable

By DCWSimon, 28-03-2020

So about two weeks ago I restarted my account. I just wanted to build a new squad with new players that would come out. When I saw this card I was absolutely stoked on getting him and I was able to do him for 60k with item out of my club. Oh boy, I do not regret that. You got to now that I played him as a CAM and as a striker with the Hunter chemistry style.

The card is only out for a few hours and I’ve played 10 weekend league games with him so far, and I can tell you that he is unbelievable. I’m a bad player overall and I hope to get Gold 3 in a good weekend. This card made it so much fun to play though. Managed to get 8/2 in WL which is insane for me.

His 5* weak foot is incredible. Being able to bang in goals from both feet is really OP this year, so this card is not an exception.

With Hunter he is actually quick enough. Manages to get to the ball early and it doesn’t feel like he needs another pace upgrade.

His shooting stats are insane as well. I noticed that especially volleys are insanely overpowered. He managed to get goals with volleys from angles where I couldn’t even pull it off if there was no goalkeeper. He does it with Ter Stegen in goal.

Passing is enough, I use him in 4-1-2-1-2 (2) where all the players are close to each other. Quick combinations are great with him.

I’ve seen people complain about the 77 balance stat. I gotta admit that I somehow didn’t check that stat before getting him, and it really didn’t influence his game. I mean that I never wondered: ‘Wow his balance must be really bad’. He felt great on the ball and I have no complaints about it.

So his physical stat is the only downside of this card. You can pretty much sub him after 70 minutes, which is fine by me because I have enough good subs. His strength is terrible and I haven’t really seen him win challenges. If you need a player who can win a challenge or two, he isn’t ideal.

Overall I believe that his card is an absolute steal. It made the game more fun for me to play and I’d recommend him to everybody honestly.

Amazing CAM, he can do it all!

So I have OTW Pepe and POTM Auba so Özil fits straight into my squad no problem, and my god hes amazing, anyone who didnt take time to do the objective to get him is serious going to regret it! I play him as a right CAM in a 451 or a central CAM if I switch to a 4231 he can play both amazing and cutting in on his left foot makes him lethal

Mesut "Avatar Eyes" Özil Review

Mesut Özil is a great player attacking wise, but shockingly terrible defensively. I played him with Maestro at CM in a 433(2) for fun mostly in Division 6 Rivals and fun I did have. The best thing about him is his Dribbling and through balls. It feels like you are playing with Slender Man when you use him. His skinny frame allows you to get out of tight situations as well as his amazing ball control and dribbling stats. Hi...

Absolute beast

I tried it in division rivals to see if it turned out for me in fut champions, but his passes are too smooth, his shot is brutal and he doesn't feel that agility 84 with that style of chemistry, it's worth every coin, also his passes are a work of art and a joy to watch,both legs are excellent.For me is one of the best fut birthday card they have released in this fifa
