91 - Icon Moment
I used his moments card in fifa 20 and he was phenomenal, so I was disappointed when I saw that his card had been downgraded this year. However, after selling HL ben yedder to buy him, I think he is even better in game this year.
He far outperformed ben yedder and brought so many goals to the attack. His pace is amazing because of his height and dribbling so he glides past defenders. His positioning and attacking AI is also incredible, he is always in space to get through on goal. His is very weak but his dribbling helps him pull away and keep space from the defenders but if he gets closed down he will be pushed off the ball. I play him upfront with cr7 and i think he works well with a physical or skillfull player who can hold the ball off and let zola make runs.
The main thing i noticed is his shooting and shot power. His power feels very similar to cr7 and if rashford - basically either foot in the area and its a goal. For long shots, his finesse trait and curve makes them incredible. He works great in a 2 striker formation because his passing is also incredible.
He scored 7 goals and 4 assists in 4 rivals (div2) games and im going to see how he does in champs this weekend.
Basically, he makes the game fun again, hes not the meta but hes so good it doesnt matter, he absolutely smoked varane and toty ramos in one of the games. If you can afford him and you're at a loss who to choose to make the difference in your squad, you need to try him.
- pace
- shot power
- finesse shots
- dribbling
- positioning
- responsiveness
- strength? but not really an issue because of how good his dribbling is and how fast he turns.
- price? - he is expensive for most people but definitely worth it.
