Player Review
97 - TOTS
Having played with his POTM2 card since its release date, I was very anxious to get my hands on this new shiny version of Werner. My expectations might've been the biggest liability on this card. His POTM2 card was an absolute cheat code at a stage in the game where 90+ defenders were few and far between. There was just no stopping that card when he decided that he was gonna get into that box. With the release of this card you would expect this to amplified, but in truth, the OP defenders that also come with the release of TOTS have the impact that this card makes, toned down. Don't get me wrong, he's still fast and he reacts like a bullet to balls in behind. But what I increasingly experience now is that defenders are hauling him in from behind and pushing him off the ball a bit too easily. If you have better ability than me (I'm a Gold 2 Fut Champs Player) to get your strikers into space inside the box, I have no hesitation that you will score bucket loads with this card.
Still very fast
Does not miss when put into space in front of goal
Still has that thing where he loses the ball, but he fights to death to get it back again
He actually heads way better than you'd expect from a player his size
Feels a little more clunky than his POTM2 card
Gets removed off the ball very easily
He's passing in a 2 striker formation has also let me down on a few occasions
