Amazing Striker for the Price!

By mbesh, 28-04-2020

John Barnes Moments has been incredible for me. I play him with a Hawk chem as a right ST in a 4-1-2-1-2 narrow or lone striker in 4-2-3-1 and he bangs goals in. I think because he is a relatively unknown player he doesn't receive some of the attention other icons have or else this card would be worth far more than the current 665k. With a Hawk chem style, his stats impress for a ST:

94 acceleration. 98 sprint speed
99 Positioning, 98 Finishing, 99 Shot Power, 86 Curve
89 Agility, 83 Balance (this didn't make much of a difference to be honest), 87 reactions, 93 ball control, 95 dribbling, 93 composure
90 stamina, 93 strength, 94 aggression
High attacking work rate + 94 aggression means he's always pushing forward
Medium defensive work rate + 94 aggression + 93 strength allows him to win back the ball after losing it
Traits: outside foot shoot, finesse shot makes his shot even more deadly

Over 32 games he got me 38 goals but that's playing D4 and Gold 1 finish so I'm not the greatest player to ever live. Nevertheless he has been exceptional and I highly recommend him to anyone

Strength
Finishing
Stamina
Aggression
Excellent traits

Plays LW so would take the spot of someone like Neymar who is more agile

Good Quality Winger

This is my experience when using John Barnes. This player was an animal at attacking. I used the formation 433(4) and he managed to get into good positioning has great pace which is expected surprisingly good strength as well when facing defenders can guard the ball well. So far I have played him for 12 games and has got me 6 Goals and 14 Assists (has that good crossing which you can take advantage of. I am definitely gonna keep using this card as i reckon he would be good for competing with TOTSSF teams and he is cheap now. Plus he did manage the 90mins so thats also a good plus. I managed to get him at 695K when he took that massive cut and I am not regretting the card at all. The only thing i would say is that the heading could be better.
