Yes he CAN-tona

By khalidao, 27-11-2020

I got him from the base Icon SBC. I was so excited to use him but was a bit disappointed after the first 3 games playing him as a CAM in 4-2-3-1. I changed to my other favorite formation the mighty 4-4-2 (2) and played Cantona as a ST partnering Son. He was a man possessed ever since! His shooting is out of this world, almost every shot from every angle imaginable is a goal, he assists a lot of goals for Son as well.

The key here, other than his incredible shooting, is his tremendous strength. Give Cantona the target man instruction and let his partner (in my case Son) have the get in behind instruction and enjoy a world of lovely 1-2s and clinical finishing. His passing is absolutely crisp for a striker while his dribbling, although not agile like the small dudes, is very effective. Attacking Headers from corners are like taking penalties with this man, 65% chance for a goal or more.

Overpriced a little? Obviously I got him from the base Icon SBC, but if there's a con for some I'd imagine it would be the price.

Eric "The King" Cantona

There can only be one King and he is the KingSir Alex once said: "if there was ever a player specifically made for Manchester United it would have been Eric Cantona"At the begining of FIFA 21 I set one goal and that was to get my hands on King Cantona and I have been REALLY lucky with packs. As soon as I had rougly enough for him I said fuck it and sold my team and almost everyth...

insane card

Sold CR7 today, he was insane, but needed something new just because its more fun to play many different cards over the year. Knew it would be hard to get a card that is significantly better than CR7 as ST next to my untradable Neymar for this amount of coins. But this card is really worth every single coin. He's just good at anything. I'm a Division1 player and all 15 matches we're Division1. This guy scored 32 goals in 15...

Eric Cantona

Views of a Gold 1 playerEric Cantona is a very solid player. I packed him in a guaranteed base icon pack and was over the moon after trying him out as a CAM and an ST next to Cristiano and Son POTM in the 41212 narrow formation. He isnt the fastest player out there but he does have that 90 physicality to make up for that. He...
