I sat staring at my Base/Mid ICON pack and I found myself reflecting on the amount of grinding that went into it. The numerous silver packs opened to get the remaining two silver French first owned players (with a keeper starting at striker); the heroes without capes honoring the golden goal gentleman’s agreement in Friendlies; the time spent staring at the AI strikers, staring at my keeper, who was staring at the ball. It was at this moment that I realized that a poor pack pull would crush me. *Click* and the animation begins… Netherlands (wait this is going to be good?) … CM (no way, I can’t help it, my mind immediately pictures 90 Gullit) … 86 Base ICON Ruud Gullit. Honestly, I can’t really describe the exact emotion that I felt at that moment as I asked myself the classic W or L question. Certainly, a million coin card is a huge W… but why did I feel so let down? Obviously greed and being spoilt for options is a big part of it, but it was more than that. 86 Gullit has always been a card that in past FIFAs I have chalked up to be too expensive due to the insane hype around his other versions, and now here I was faced with the opportunity to actually try the card for my first time in any FIFA and see for myself. It was obvious that Gullit would take the place of a CM in my 4-4-2 this weekend and I played him about 50/50 in the more defensive and attacking role. The SHADOW/HUNTER (I switched his CM position after 10 matches) chemistry styles were applied and Gullit was off to the races, providing the strength and power all weekend in the following squad:
I flip-flopped about 15 times between an 8.5 and a 9 out of 10 for this overall and honestly, I could probably be persuaded either way in a debate. The card has some crazy upsides that I have not witnessed very often in FIFA 21… but at the same time is lacking in too many key areas to dominate and take over a match. In the end, I went for the 8.5/10 because there were too many times when looking to my bench to Freeze Aouar in attack or RTTF Atal/Moments Ox in defense just seemed like the better option to get me over the line in close matches. Time and time again I subbed Gullit out .. mostly for the 78 STAMINA which is quite poor… but more so because he just isn’t quite at the level the current cards demand to compete. Here is the breakdown...
Main Statistic – Physical
Physical Rating: 9.5/10
Height: 191cm | 6’3
Trait: Power Header
Having just had a go at his stamina I should explain that I considered this deficiency in my rating and is truly the only reason I didn’t go full 10/10. This card might have flaws, but being bullied is certainly not one of them. This card is well and truly a juggernaut in the center of the pitch, winning headers, winning tackles, holding up play and driving forward on the ball. 82 STRENGTH feels like 110 with this card and this year I can only think of VVD as a player I have used who feels this strong in-game.
Main Attribute - 5 Star Weak Foot
Shooting Rating: 9/10
Weak Foot: * * * * *
For how low the Shooting statistics are with this card you would expect a poor level of quality. True, the 5 STAR WEAK FOOT is going to be a huge factor, but everything looks bang average and even below average with this card offensive statistics. This leads me to believe that the only explanation is some hidden ICON statistics that we have all experienced before in various players… either that or I just got lucky with the results. You will notice that we used two pictures for this review. The 18 matches I played previously were actually as a center back when I was trying to complete some objectives, while the 38 match photo shows the results after the 20 match review. 6 goals in the 10 matches as the attacking CM is a quality return in my mind and speaks to the clinical nature with this card despite only 86 FINISHING.
Value/Coins & Good vs. Bad
Value/Coins Rating: 4/5
Good vs Bad Rating: 4/5
1.2 million is simply too much for this card. While I will touch on the deficiencies in the Good vs Bad section it ultimately comes down to trust. I just could not trust Gullit to be the difference maker in my squad in key moments throughout the weekend. Whether it was important matches or important situations it was never Gullit rising to the occasion. The 8.5/10 overall depicts that card perfectly in this sense… Gullit is a steady eddy that you can trust to do a job every match, but that is all he does, never exceeding expectations or taking matches over when he is needed.
A legend once referred to 90 Gullit as Superman… and unfortunately 86 Gullit has been hindered by the biggest kryptonite in FIFA 21 … a lack of pace. With 87 ACCELERATION & 92 SPRINT SPEED, I thought his card was going to be just fine, but the result was very lackluster. Mix this issue with the lack of movement in the 74 AGILITY & 78 BALANCE and it makes for an extremely clunky card. “Lumbering around” is how I would describe it and it truly sucks the life out of this card's quality. It is sad because there really is a ton of potential with this version of Gullit. The size again is so key to the defending and as my Defensive CM, it was a nightmare to get around him when he was parked in the center of the pitch. 94 STANDING tackle wrecks anyone that comes in contact with Gullit and then he is able to play out of these situations and into the counter-attack with his 85 SHORT & 87 LONG PASSING statistics.
Closing Words
Having watched streamer after streamer opens up their own and viewer’s packs I know that I was lucky. There are a ton of 85 Ashley Cole(s) floating around out there and doing all of that work for that reward would be depressing as anything. However, I do not truly believe that this Gullit should be priced in the bracket he is and 800-900k feels more appropriate. In the end, I feel like you are paying a “Gullit Tax” with this one as the name drags you in with promises of Weekend League domination. While Gullit was not a bad option and was able to physically impose himself on my opponents all weekend, the issues still run deep and I would pass on this version of Gullit at this price tag. The card is just too sluggish, the midfield too big, and his dreads just too small. Hoping you are safe and well. Cheers for reading
Played him in a 433(2) on balanced instructions, scored 6 goals and assisted 1 time in 5 matches. on paper his stats are not that good, but he plays a lot better than his stats say. He is a frickin beast in the air and also has a really nice shot with the 5* wf. Possibly the most important thing is his runs, he makes great attacking runs and is a presence in the defense. great player but maybe a little overpriced, you're basically paying for the name
Great in the air
5* wf
Makes insane runs attacking wise
Defensive presence, will win the ball when he is anywhere near your opponent
Stamina, only 78 so gets tired by the 80th minute if not earlier
Can sometimes feel clunky on the ball even with an engine, most of the time it's decent tho
A little bit overpriced for the card, If he was under 1 mil he would be great value.
Hello everyone, this is my first review ever on FutBin. I really felt the urge of writing it since this card doesn't have enough reviews which is weird since it's the most accessible one because his mid is over 5 mil. I play 4222 in game and have Gullit as my left cdm and I can easily say he's one of the best cards I've ever used. The stats on the card are really boosted in game he feels very different so don't be scared of buying him because his card doesn't look "meta". He is very agile in the field and almost always in a good defensive position. In the field he feels like 9 feet tall he's really giant for headers and duels but also agile for making good runs in the midfield. I don't think he will be good used as cam but he's the perfect cdm. I've had prime Makelele before him and I can say they work very similarly in defense even if Makelele's stats look much better but Gullit does everything he does and more. The only thing that is bad is his stamina, it's actually not always a problem sometimes I can get him to overtime but when I play games that are really physical and fast he might struggle to finish the game so a good cdm might come in handy. To sum it up, I think base Gullit is one of the best cdms in game, he does everything perfectly and his only problem is his stamina. I know a lot of people say that he's overpriced and that might be true but for some people it's the only way they can get Gullit to play in their teams and I find him pretty satisfying. It's a shame I don't see him good in any attacking positions, people would want Gullit slaying their opponents and scoring tons of goals but unless you're willing to sell some of your organs you might as well enjoy this one's brilliance defensively :)
1) Tall guy, good for headers in field and from corners.
2) Mighty strength, hard to take the ball from him.
3) Good defensive positioning.
4) Great passing, he assisted like 7 goals in 3 games from cdm position.
1) Stamina, might need to sub him off.
2) Other versions of him are very pricey.
3) Shooting, he always positions himself well when I'm in the box so he can take the shot from the outside. Very powerful shots but 90% of the times Lord be with the spectators.
First of all, I got him from a base icon pack first reaction was that he was amazing and I checked his price and I was very happy indeed. I was in the middle of building a new team aswell and he fit pretty well getting my rw on a decent amount of chem, how he plays ingame is a whole different story. He is the most inconsistent player I have used so far, his stats look so well rounded and good but I was so disappointed and annoyed when I used him in wl. His price is ridiculous for how he feels. So many better cms in this game for his price. For example, I used Valverde alongside him and he felt and performed 10000x better. He is an icon which means he links well which is a con but so many better choices for his price.
