Player Review

91 - Icon
4.5
Goal scoring machine!
By baklatrons, 08-02-2021

I have used Owen in 352, 41212(2), 532, 4321 formations with Rooney, Dembele, Rashford, Okocha on top but the best formation was 352 with some good passers and skillers around. This mans shooting is amazing, over a goal a game. Shooting is very consistent and he rarely misses. The finesse shot trait makes his finesses amazing and they often go in. Passing is not anything special, not a great passer but for the short passes he'll do the job. Dribbling is great, very agile, good balance, great r1 dribbling. For some people 84 composure might be low but I didn't feel it at all. Pace was great, he's rapid, nothing much more I can say. Physicality is solid, feels like he has more strength that it says on the card. Stamina is good, not a problem if you put him on stay forward. Overall an amazing card with an amazing value. The one thing that lacks is skill moves, 3* skill moves is not great but if it's ok for you then you have to try him. Weak foot felt like 5*, was never a problem.

Shooting- rarely misses

Dribbling- great, very happy with it

Pace- he's rapid

Weak foot- felt like 5*

Finesse shot trait

Links (helped me a ton to link Rooney)

3* SM- very limiting sometimes

Height- might be too short for some people but never was the problem for me

Stamina for some people- might need to sub him off

Workrates- was a problem till you get used to it (took me a few games to get used to it)

Price (wasn't a problem for me as I did his sbc for about 20k)

Passing- bad, but for the short passes he'll do the job.

Good value icon

I needed an icon to link up some players so i decided to get this guy. I did the sbc for 250k and i can tell you he is 100 percent worth. He has the pace and agility to skip past defenders and his finishing is absolutely lethal. I'm playing him with potm haaland and both of their passing isnt the greatest so i would advise having players with good passing around him

Great Shooting, Needs Hunter to Maxmize Potential

Michael Owen is electric and clinical, but his dribbling and passing can be a let down sometimes. For the current SBC price he's worth the coins, but for his market price right now I would pass. When the new batch of Icon SBC's came out I didn't feel the need to complete any of them as they didn't fill any of the needs in ...

THE EUROPEAN CANNON IS HERE

One of the best strikers I´ve used in a while. 30 games, 41 goals, 19 assists. I guess you don´t need to hear more. If you´re not sure if you should do his sbc/buy him, I really suggest you to do so. He feels very fast, agile and is very clinical in front of the goal. You might say that 63 strength is not enough. However, in game he feels like with 80 strength. The only con I can thi...
