Player Review

84 - SIF
4.0
Ollie the Finisher
By thedjbob, 16-11-2020

Ollie can do one thing really, really well.


Finish.


37 Goals/17 Assists/10 MOTM in the past WL as the striker in a 4231.


Don't let him have too many touches in the box. Don't expect him to beat a man off a dribble. Don't expect him to play a defense splitting pass. He does the easy things. Put ball in goal and pass to the open man. If you keep these things in his mind and don't try to play him like the meta (eight skill moves in a row in the box), then he's your guy. In fact, I'd say he's probably one of the best strikers for players who don't perform a lot of skill moves. Deliver it to him in the box or with a through ball and watch Ollie do his thing. Good in the air, scores many an impossible looking goal, and decent enough with a 4* left foot as long as you're not trying to finesse it to the top corner. His attack positioning is excellent and is always there when you need him in the box. He is not a player that goes missing.


This all comes with a caveat though.


He will frustrate you at the most inopportune times. He will miss sitters (70 composure). He will lose a shoulder to shoulder that you really need (as aggressive as the Queen). He will dumbfoundedly play a pass that makes no sense at all (general passing stats).


But he will score you goals. That's what it says on the tin after all.

Other Ollie Watkins Reviews

Watkins aka Ronaldo at his 20s.

Hi, this is a review for the best player I tried yet on this fifa. He is a beast I love him, he scores goals, he assists, he wins every ball, he is never tired. He does everything well. I play him at striker on the 4-2-3-1 and he scores a lot of goals. He is the best player I tried at kicking Finnese shots from outside the box , he scores a lot. Hes got great headers too.

Ollie Watkins is a beast

He has played nealy 50 games for me and has scored 78 times. I in division rivals (division 1) in a 442 formation. I played him alongside Werner and he was not close to be as good as Watkins. He are smooth on the ball but is a little bit slow when im trying to turn around. He is deadly in front of goal with both feets and are really fast.

91 Striker

His 81IF was gold for me, had over 150 games with him so i knew i would get his new card. i picked him up for 77k and just played my first weekend league and i'm not that great a player but he was an absolute beast. with finisher he is a 91 ST in game and it definitely feels like it or very close. his pace, strength and shooting is insane and he gets past all the top defenders quite w...
