-Decent card has good stats and can score goals

-Doesn't require much grind

-Can be completed in 2hrs, maybe 8 games

-Easy to get doesn't requires wins

-Would be worth easily 150k+

Having played 40 games with Victor Osimhen (85) in order to grind out the objectives to unlock the 88 version, I can confidently say that he was the most frustrating card I've ever used on Fifa. It was difficult to pinpoint exactly what was so wrong about his card, but I believe the following factors contributed to his atrocious performance on the pitch:

Pace - 91 pace sounds like a lot. It should have felt like a lot. It didn't. The problem I kept finding was that his low acceleration made him feel incredibly slow on the game. When playing against an opponent who played with constant pressure and high depth, I would often find opportunities to launch a through ball past the opponent's back line for Osimhen to run onto. Time and time again he would take so long to reach his top speed that the opponents defenders were already caught up to him and ending the opportunity. Even on short runs when you think he has a step he would still get caught quickly and easily by the opponents defenders.

Dribbling - When I wasn't playing a high depth constant pressure opponent, I found myself playing a drop back 1 depth opponent. Osimhen was unable to score against this type of defense either. My strategy is typically to be patient, wait for my striker to find himself in space, make a quick move and fire a shot. Osimhen was never in space, couldn't make a quick move, and never had the chance to fire home the shot. His dribbling is as clunky as they come. Osimhen dribbles as if he has stone feet. Each touch flies away from his feet and every pass received by Osimhen winds up in a direction that you did not want to go.

Movement - This is likely down to his High/High workrates, but Osimhen was nowhere to be found on so many attacking movements. He would occupy the space of whoever decided to make a run into the box, whether it be the CMs or RM/LM. Even when I changed his instructions to Stay Central, Get in Behind, and Stay Forward, I found him behind my CMs when I would break for a counter. Against drop back one depth he would just around being marked by a defender until I manually triggered his runs.

Shooting Animation - Different players have different shooting motions in Fifa. Osimhen's is the clunkiest and slowest wind up of any player I've used. He lines up to kick the ball like an NFL field goal kicker. By the time his foot connects with the ball there are three defenders who have closed down on any angle he may have had.

Passing and Physical - Both very poor. I thought it might just be the awful gameplay, but after 40 games I'm confident he just can't pass or hold onto the ball.

Reactions - When I put on high pressure, oftentimes I would get in a tackle on an opponents defender and the ball would come loose in the box. No matter how many steps ahead of the defender he was, Osimhen would never be the first to react and get back the ball.

To summarize: Osimhen didn't have the breakaway speed to find space for a shot, did not have the movement to get open for a shot, did not have the dribbling to create a shot for himself, and when he finally found himself in a sliver of space, his slow shooting animation would lead to his shot being blocked. He couldn't create for others due to his poor passing and how easily he was bullied off the ball so he was completely useless. Thankfully I've now unlocked the 88 version which feels 100x better in every aspect. Full respect if you're going to grind for the 88, but let this review be a warning for the frustration ahead.
