THE WORST ICON IN FIFA 21???
By AntonChukcha, 17-03-2021

This is my first review and I am from Russia, so sorry for my not-so-cool English. In two packs with the icon, I got a duplicate of Campbell (the only prime icon in my squad) and Pippo. I was disappointed with such players and in fact I spent all the coins on these packs. But I decided to give the worst icon in fifa a chance and put him in the main squad. I was surprised.

A little bit about Pippo as a football player. In general, he was not some kind of super-talented, but persistent, able to be always where you need to score goals. EA decided to show the whole essence of Pippo on the card, where he has no speed, no physics, no gears, average dribbling and cool shots. This card does not fit the meta at all, this is proved by the absolutely small price of the card. He is almost the cheapest icon among all. But after playing for him in the DR in the fourth and third division, I realized that this card can be enjoyed in the game, but it needs a lot of conditions. First, Pippo needs very strong assistants in attack, who will be fast and will have good dribbling (I had it with Cristiano, Neymar and El Shaarawy), they will free Pippo from the need to move with the ball, as he does it very poorly. His speed is really bad, he won't be able to run away from many defenders, especially from Varane or Gomez. 3 skills will not allow him to make cheater techniques, so all he has to do is complete the attacks with his shots at the goal that he has really good. His attacking position is very good, he perfectly finds the space to score a goal, the main thing is to give him an accurate pass at the right time and he will score. Despite the 3 stars on the weak foot, if he hits the goal in the penalty area, there are almost no problems, but it is still better to adjust to the right leg. Pippo has a mobile model in the game, he is small and with good dexterity and balance, he is able to squeeze into the penalty area to the goal without problems. Sometimes he surprised me very much with his tenacity and control of the ball in a confined space. He is also able to hit very well finesse shots outside the penalty area. His finesse shots are good. His passes are not very good, but the short passes with the engine are not bad, but it is not worth playing for him as for Pirlo) His task is to score and only score, only then will he be able to please you.

In general, you need to be able to play for Pippo. After all, he also played in real life, had Zidane, Del Piero, Kaka, Pirlo, Shevchenko, etc. as allies, and was always on the cutting edge of the attack, on the offside line) He is not fast, he is not a skiller, his passin so-so, he is physically weak, all he can do is hit the goal. It's hard to play, but if you can, you'll get a real buzz. When I score for Pippo to an opponent with a squad for millions of coins, I get really high, and the opponent just leaves the game in shock. This is how you can enjoy this game. And if you are a fan of Milan and remember the game of Pippo and his goals, then I recommend at least to try. Is he the worst icon in the game? Yes. But does that make it terrible? No)

PIPPOOOOOO

I was sniping for Cantona or Puskas and I lost my nerves while doing so and decided to buy my old friend, whom I loved so much when he was playing. The one, the only, the man behind the offside - Pippo. Around 250k for prime Pippo and I simply had a feeling that he was going to be something else. HE WAS. If you loved Pippo as a player, you naturally use him like that - poacher. His attacking positioning is perfect and he wi...

PIPOOOO

Yes. I bought him. The ‘worst’ icon on the game. And honestly? He’s a god.Admittedly his left foot is as useful as a damp sponge, however if you get any scoring opportunity on his right foot 9/10 times He’ll bury it. I can’t remember the last time he missed the goal completely, and he’ll only ever not score if Pope decides to become the reincarnation of Lev yashin.
