90 - Icon

4.5

Underused and underrated, but not god-tier

By Jpants999, 25-01-2021

I wanted to buy a forward to rely on with a price between 750k and 1 million coins to use for the weekend league. I've used CR7 Mbappe, prime Crespo, POTM Lewandowski. Henry and CR7 are definetely the two best out of all of these guys (IMO). Anyways I would never grind 17 icon swaps for any card unless its prime r9, so I don't suggest doing so with Henry, even though hes class.

Pace (9/10)

Feels a bit faster than CR7 but a step slower than Kylian. Once he gets in behind hes through on goal. class. SOmething unique about henry is that he almost glides.

Shooting (10/10)

his shooting blew me away. Great with both feet. Finesse shots are GODLY. Like oh my god if you have a good angle on his right foot spam finesse shots. I expected his finishing and shooting to be great but his shooting and finishing exceeded expectations. Finishing for me is on par with CR7 and POTM Lewa, he just doesn't miss.

Passing (9/10)

Class. 85 passing doesn't lie. Really nice addition to have for a striker. Great with through balls and great at laying it off to a winger in the box. Great with link up play.

Dribbling (9/10)

If you spam meta skill moves with him (like you can with Neymar Mbappe and CR7) you wont be succesful. His first touch is class and he glides on the ball. Def not as good as Neymar and mbappe but definetely serviceable. Don't treat him like Neymar, because hes not.

Physical (8/10)

Tall and relatively strong, what you'd expect. Def doesnt feel weak.

Overall hes a fantastic striker. For the Icon forwards that are around 800k-1 million hes probably the best option. Highly recommend. But I would def not do the 17 tokens for him.

Godly Finesse Shots

Good passing

Decent physical

Intimidating striker to use ( I got a lot of messages from people after matches it was honestly weird)

stamina is solid. Def not an issue.

Class is permanent, guy simply scores bangers.

Except for finesse shots, he isnt god tier in anything. Don't expect to buy him and have him win you 20 games in the weekend league.

Le Magnifique!

Thierry Henry. One of the worlds best finishers and one of the best finishers English football has seen. Decided to go for the mid card and oh my goodness he didn't disappoint. The card was mental and did well in all aspects. I'm gonna keep this short because I don't wanna waste your time. Oh and by the way, I used him as a lone striker in a 4-2-3-1 Narrow.Pace: 9/10 He was very quick and could outrun the ...

It really pains me to right this review as an Arsenal fan. I'm not going to waste your time, I'm a G1/E3 player and 87 Auba (both ST) is way better than this card. I have tried this card with a couple chem styles but settled on a Hawk. Take note his shooting is much better with a Marksman. His shooting is really really poor, but like it should never be this bad!! If you have 90 Bergkamp, Henry's shooting is a 7/10 compared ...
