94 - FUT Birthday
So in the last Weekend League I used Eden Hazard FUT Birthday as a striker in the 4-1-2-1-2 (2) formation with TOTY KdB as CAM and Drogba 89 as the second striker. I've played Joao Felix FS the week before and I thought Eden Hazard could be a decent looking upgrade to the Portuguese Wonderkid (Spoiler: He was).
KdB and Hazard formed a deadly combination upfront and with their clinical finishing and sharp passing they caused some serious damage in my opponent's defense. Pace, Dribbling and Passing are wthout a doubt his biggest strengths. He feels very agile on the pitch and clunky defenders have no chance to stop him. He also played very good though balls and gathered 13 assists in 29 appearences for my club. His Shooting was great too, inside and outside the box he did well with both feet when he had some time and space. Sometimes he lacked a little bit shot power, but I am complaning on a very high level. The biggest surprise was his stamina, he never ran out of power and even in extra time he still performed like he did in the first 90 minutes.
Eden Hazard definitely lacks strength and aggression. When my opponent parked the bus in front of his goal, he got kinda crushed between my opponent's CB's. You also shouldn't try to score a header with him, that probably only works against a bronze GK.
I really recommend you to buy and try him, the Value for Coins is great and in comparison to Joao Felix FS he did way better in the exact same squad.
