FUTBIN Player Review

ICON Moments Yashin Review

Keepers in FUT are like buying apples from the market.  You can find an apple that is bright and shiny on the outside but has become rotten on the inside.  Sometimes, the most expensive apple doesn’t mean it will taste good at all.  Other times, you come across a type of apple that is cheap, yet when baked in a pie is the perfect ingredient to get the job done.  In the end, you need apples, but they are never your first priority when entering the store.  
I do not remember a FIFA where keepers have been made so obsolete as FIFA 21.  Even the “cheap beasts” of old have simply just turned into “cheaper options.”  I see Nick Pope and Ter Stegen every weekend, but having tried them I am not sure they have any benefit over other options beyond the price tag.  However, this weekend I really wanted to put the keeper debate in my mind to rest, reviewing the 2nd highest rated and third most expensive keeper in the game, The Black Spider, Prime ICON Moments Lev Yashin.  I am not always sure if keeper chemistry styles are causing any effect at all, but for the purpose of this review, I tried the SHIELD and then BASIC chemistry styles, with zero noticeable difference.  Yet, one bonus I can not deny is that ICON keepers do make squad building that little bit easier… and Lev Yashin was the man in the sticks all weekend long in the following squad:

Overall

Rating: 6/10
Positioning Rating: 8/10
Shot Stopping Rating: 6.5/10
Kicking Rating: 7/10
Decision Making Rating: 5/10

This might be the worst keeper I have used so far in FIFA 21, no cap!  No seriously, he wasn’t wearing the cap… to be honest, I thought that might be part of the premium price, and I might have even excused some of his shortcomings if he had looked more like a character from Peaky Blinders and less like a kit man standing in my goal.  But I am serious when I say that Yashin was a disaster for me this weekend and I am not even considering the price when I say this.  I have come to a point where I currently trust Courtois or Ederson in goal, and that is about it for me.  They are generally consistent and you have a good idea of what they will do next.  With Yashin, I honestly couldn’t be sure if he would make a blinding reaction save, or drop the ball into my goal from minute to minute in a match.

I understand that in the comments there will be examples of all keepers being brilliant and others that have been abysmal, and I think that is the point to make here.  The keepers in FIFA 21 are borderline obsolete at this point and the amount of unexplainable events you see on Twitter feeds and Instagram pages every weekend just cements that point.  However, like I previously said… I know that Ederson is going to come for almost every cross and will get a hand to it… but with Yashin, I could never be sure where his head was at and resulted in terrible moments in the match.

I am kicking myself now that I was not more on the ball with the video for this review.  The fact is that I really thought I was going to be reviewing a keeper who would steal a match or two for me and really blow away what I had previously used. Because of this, I was only focused on the key saves he made, however, if I had my time back, I would have focused more on saving clips where Yashin was costing me goals and matches with his antics.  In the end, my video is more just a couple of saves he made in big matches and overall doesn’t paint the picture of what happened… my apologies for that.  However, I can provide you with some other proof in the form of stats.  This weekend I conceded 50 goals in 30 matches… this is a little on the high end for me but the breakdown is what really caught my eye.  In the 20 matches with Yashin in goal, I conceded 43 goals… while only 7 in the following 10 matches with Ederson.  True, I was obviously playing better FIFA myself at this point… but Yashin did nothing to bail me out during my struggles either.

Value/Coins & Good vs. Bad 

Value/Coins Rating: 2/5
Good vs Bad Rating: 3.5/5

For 1 million coins I want something… anything!  I would even take the gimmick of the hat and have been happy.  But what I received was a problematic experience of having an unpredictable and unreliable keeper… and in the end that is a lot of coins to pay for stress.  I can actually pinpoint the moment things went downhill for me… in my 6th match of the weekend… currently 5 - 0… a corner comes into the box and is falling on the 6 yard box… Yashin comes for it late… jumps… misses the ball completely… and Rooney nods home the winning goal in the 82nd minute.  From that moment on it was a continuous spiral and Yashin’s confidence never recovered.  

Truthfully I think a lot of the Yashin problems I experienced come down to the fact that he appears smaller in goal than his 189cm | 6’2 frame would suggest and this affects how he comes for crosses and also some shot stopping.  While I won’t deny that Yashin certainly made saves, I think the key is that there was not a single save that a gold Nick Pope could not have dealt with and is truly the most concerning observation for any FUT Managers planning on shelling out the coins to bring this card into their squad. 

Closing Words

I constantly review the best cards… new promos, new ICONs & all top options in the game.  Obviously, this leads to a lot of 9/10 and above ratings given the wide variety of strengths that these cards can display across 20 matches.  However, with Yashin, even after 20 matches I am not sure that he really demonstrated anything to me of value.  In the end I felt a consistent reluctance to play even one more game with him in my squad.  I think I was due for a good run of form in the last 10 matches that I played this Weekend League regardless of who was in goal…and a change to the 4-3-1-2 was a huge help (new tactics I am using, with a review on my YouTube: MaeNine coming this week), but I truly believe in the depth of my soul that I would not have managed Elite had Yashin stayed in the squad to complete those matches.  This card gets a hard pass from me… and I am interested to hear in the comments who you are trusting to protect the goal in your squads. Hoping you are safe and well.  Cheers for reading.

Lev Yashin
By thorbinio, 16-05-2021

Bester Torhüter den ich bisher im Tor hatte. Seine Reflexe sind unglaublich und er fühlt sich wirklich wie ein 95er Keeper an. Sein Preis von 250k für ein 84er und 86er Team geht voll klar. Die anderen 4 Teams sollte eigentlich jeder im Verein haben.

One of the best GKs this FIFA.
By ReshirexOnYT, 17-05-2021

Its a gk, so as usual not much to say except address his basics and his price. He is very good diving and handling wise, and its always nice to have an alright paced GK. He does his job very well and for a fair price as he links to everyone. I feel like he is the 4th best gk this fifa behind ederson, oblak and vds. But i would say that you should just get vds instead as atleast he has some strong links. But yeah very solid and here are some highlights from 4 wl matches.

Generally quite a good card so everything except Kicking

The Only GK for me
By futdelealli, 26-06-2021

Before I made his full sbc I tried out his loan card and I was blown away. I don't want to say that he is the almighty himself but he does things that noone else. Altough his speed is not the fastest I could't figure out why he is insanly mobile. THE AGILITY!! Combined with the Rushes out of goal trait he is teleporting from the goal line to the attackers feet to tackle them. I always see on my opponnent that he is suprised when I come off the line with Y orTriangle because just like the outfield players agility matters for gk-s as well. I didn't noticed such an insane speed even with TOTS EDERSON or NEUER. Of course sometimes his height is a disadvatge when Messi makes a 30 meter finesse shot and he can't help himself in thesee situations but every other goalkeeper concedes similar goals as well. And I don't know but I feel like every second save he makes is with his feet. He has a really weird animation when the shot would go into the net next to his hip, he lifts his legs so weirdly but saves it most of the time. Neuer on the other hand makes that squatting animation and it goes in everytime. Overall he won't in weekedn league he won't make you from 0-30 to 30-0 but he can be the competetive edge on really sweaty and close games.

Speed (Highest Agility in game)

Traits (trust me he saves with feet as well even though it is not listed)

One of the best
By Tzuwy, 25-08-2021

I have been using it for 300+ matches. The stats are pretty good but I think you should consider buying VDS unless u have him untradeable. I don't know why but sometimes he doesn't even move when the opponent's shot from a long-range (It happens often for me). His 6'2 height is a con too (depends on your playing type). I use comes for crosses but sometimes he failed to save balls from corner kicks and resulted in the opponent's scoring header (It is purely from AI movements, I never controlled him manually). And, beware of chip shots due to his height.


Overall, if you like a small goalkeeper or u are his fan irl go get him, his stats and diving are crazy though.

My grandma > Yashin
By jmpigoce, 18-06-2021

In the moment i did him, i had high hopes that he was going to be good, but actually, he's kinda shit. He's not very tall and doesn't have long arms and legs. He only gets finesse shots if you move him, otherwise, he doesn't get them. But his speed and reflexes are not that bad, when your opponent is inside your box, or in 1v1's, he's very fast to jump in the ball. 5/10 comparing to others GK's.

  • Reflexes
  • Fast in the box
  • Good if you use goalkeeper movement frequently


  • Short
  • - Tiny arms and legs
  • - Can´t get finesses if you don't move the keeper.

Lev Yashin Review
By Kickerboy89, 31-05-2021

I realllllllllly wanted to like Yashin. I had thought with his stats he would be better than he was. When I first got him I was really hyped. His first game was abysmal and then he had a monster second game. Every game after that I swear Pavlenka or Casteels would do better than him. He makes really odd animations that get him nowhere near the ball or close to being in the right position. I started carrying my gold Neuer on the bench because if a game got too bad but still in reach I would swap goalies which I feel like is unheard of in FIFA and unfortunately wastes a sub I could use on an outfield player. He now plays all my Squad Battle games because I am determined to get some use out of him lol.


If you have enough fodder or want a Squad Battles goalie, he's your guy. Go for it. Otherwise, as much as I hate to say this, avoid him.

Reflexes (on occasion)

Speed

Save animations (odd and not useful)

No useful traits

No hat :-(

Disappointing player
By jositopenurias, 18-06-2021

I make the SBC because I have a mix of TOTS defenders (obviously RBs) and I need some extra chemistry... Well, this was the baddest decision of this game for me. I really dont understand how a goalkeeper with that stats could be so bad, honestly all my matches ends with 0 saves and if it finish with 1 or 2 saves (no more) it is because the shots was from 30 or 40 metres.

If the shot go out of the arch it wont be goal

If the rival dont play never to him maybe it could scare him

If the shot go inside the arch it will be goal

Chemistry I guess
