Player Review

I bet most of you are thinking whether Drogba is a wise move to get from the swaps or not. I can tell you by 1 WL of experience (30 games) of how i feel about Drogba as i was fortunate enough to pack baby Zidane and try this beast out. Before i start the review lets wrap out his stats in my club: 30 games: 28 goals & 13 assists. Chem style used: Engine. Rank in WL: Elite 3.

Pace 7.5 / 10: 85 pace for a guy who is 6'2 tall and heavy as a tank is great. He can use his pace and same time use his strength to shield the ball. Sadly though the agility makes him look a little slower than he really is, he usually just feels clunky with the ball so you cannot run past players so "smoothly" like you could with Neymar or Mbappe. That's why i give him only a 7.5.

Shooting: 9.0 / 10: You could be thinking why "only" 9.0 rating when he has a beast of shooting. Well it is great he finishes like a animal.. usually. Only thing which could be a little better is his composure. Too often i missed a clear 1 on 1's with him even though he had 85 composure, but its still not great. Its not like with Ronaldo who has 95 composure. If you want a ELITE state striker you could wish he has a higher composure than 85. With higher composure i could give him 9.5 rating. Perfect 10 with 5* wf. Still amazing shooting don't get me wrong, but you could expect even a little better from that state of player. And his workrates is great though, makes a lot of good runs with that 92 positioning.

Passing 7.0 / 10: Not great, not bad either. He sometimes gives some nice through balls here and there but its not like having a Messi upfront. Also that free kick accuracy honestly makes him look a better passer than he really is, unfortunately. Its still good enough passing for a st but its not anything special.

Dribbling 5.5 / 10: I'm not trying to be too negative on this but honestly.. its trash. Hes missing some of the most important dribbling stats you want from your top elite state striker. Agility & composure. With the way how servers are this year.. probably a worse than ever.. players with a low dribbling feels so daamn clunky, unresponsive & slow its crazy. That's why i hate all the low dribbling players in general and love players like Messi or Neymar. Only positive thing i can find from his dribbling is the 4* skills, but you cannot do them properly with 70 agility. Not even the composure is that great also. 85 is decent don't get me wrong but from your top striker you want it to be in the 90's. With higher agility and composure it would be a unstoppable card, now its like having a slightly upgraded Lukaku in your team.

Defending N / A: As a striker you don't really look at his defending.

Physical: 10 / 10. Only thing beside shooting i absolute loved about this card. Hes so strong its crazy and he wins headers so easily. But again the way how headers are atm you don't really get rewarded from good heading players. I maybe scored like 3 headers with him. He just won a lot of headers from goal kicks so that helped me a lot. But the strength is just something crazy. You could so easily just hold down the L2 and shield the ball and do like a drag back and easy goal. That's one thing i loved about this card. So good at inside the box when he gets to be back towards the defender. Its so hard to get the ball off from him and even if you are shoulder to shoulder with a defender he can't tackle you unless its like a VVD. Absolute amazing.

So after a deep dive do i think its worth the 23 tokens? As how the gameplay and servers is right now & if you are only at looking a player who is best choice to help you get wins then no. There is so much better choices to put upfront than Drogba. I liked Son, Messi, Neymar, Mane more than a Drogba upfront. But if you are only looking at a player which could be a fun player to use or you don't care too much about if he helps you get wins then this is your guy. Its a good card don't get me wrong but for a player you need to get 23 tokens out from 24, i just don't think its worth it.
