Better than what U expect
By jusnaldo, 13-10-2020

Whats up, Lads! My English is not the very best, pls excuse me.


This guy, Van Nistelrooy, is an absolute legend in real life.

He was a top scorer for Real Madrid and ManU, later he played at my Club, the almighty HSV! I luckily pulled a few expensive cards like Salah, Koulibaly, Wijnaldum, Havertz. So I could build up a strong team around a few meta players:

I included Lloris, Davies, Alaba, Laporte, Joao Cancelo, Kimmich, Goretzka, Sane, Renato Sanches IF, Gelson Martins, Van Nistelrooy.


And in 10 games i played this squad, Ruud V.N. was absolutely amazing. (Scored 36 goals in 10 games, divion 3) He got sick finishing, tho his weak foot is not the best, he almost always is at the right spot at the right time, his pace boosted with a hunter is enough to outpace most defenders and he is very strong on the ball.

On many occasions he just yeeted the ball in, no matter where he was standing and although his weak foot is not amazing it does the job.


So all in all, for around 400k he is the best overall striker you can get...

but... dont expect wonders, its not a Ronaldo or Torres!

I would recommand trying him out, if u got the coins in your bag. But I wont be mad if u prefer a Pogba+Martial Combi for the same price.

Cheers

BIG BOY RUUDJE

well, i bought this card because i wanted to have a team with Mid or Prime Bergkamp, Mid or Prime van Nistelrooy and Baby or Prime Nistelrooy.Mid Nistelrooy was the first card that i bought, he was 212k and I had some expectations but not too much. At first, his card stood out to me because he has some nice stats and I hate the meta way of playing, so put him in a team with Hazard ucl live and Arjen...

Counter the meta

I picked up Ruud because I wanted to try something else. I don't like to play on the counter like everybody on this meta. of course, there were multiple options to choose from. However, I had a limited amount of money and untradeables in my club. I went for Ruud because I'm Dutch and a PSV fan. I played Ruud in different formations. I started off with him at striker in a 4231 formation. while using this formation, I didn't ...
