Player Review
94 - TOTS
I love hulk as much as probably everyone else that plays fifa. His left foot is something out of this world and the combination of pace and strength makes this player a bulldozer when it comes to breaking down defences. However when I say he is a bulldozer I mean it. His balance makes him able to run in a straight line with tiny variances. He turns quick but loses control of the ball which makes it simple for defenders to swoop in and start the counter attack, which in this fifa is very good and can cost you the game.
I used hulk as a striker and rw/ram in a 4-4-2 and 4-3-3(4) and 4-2-3-1. He had a combination of starting and coming on as a sub. My first impressions of him were not good. I subbed him on as a get in behind striker in the 4-4-2 beside tots Mahrez and he was very underwhelming but as time went on I learned his movement and how he feels and got better, He can play striker but the 3 star weakfoot was a huge detriment and lost me a game, he decided to take a shot from the middle of the box to the right side with his right foot and completely missed. As a winger he is good. He feels like an Adama with less pace but amazing shooting and passing. His finesse shots are exceptional and if you play to his strengths he is a great winger/ram. The only difficulty is playing to his strengths. He plays differently to your high agility balance winger and like I mentioned earlier feels like a slower but better Adama.
In conclusion I think if he drops to 200k and you can and want to use him in your team and try and go for a csl or Brazil team. Go for it he is good. If you want to buy hulk for any more than 200-250k and he isn’t one of your favourite players/you really want to try him. I’d swerve this card as he is good and fun but overall his weakfoot and balance really take away from all the good things this card has to offer. If you have him untradeable like me, try him out, sub him on and keep him for later like futties and festival of fut, when a lot of the tots are really cheap and you can make a very good csl/Brazil team.
