Player Review

91 - FUT Birthday
4.5
Goal Getter
By EnglishAF, 02-04-2021

This is my first ever review on FUT Bin and I'm a FUT Founder. That should give you some idea of why I'm writing this review.


Vardy and I met in a beautiful twist of fate as I opened a 86+ x2 pack from one of EA's many coin sucking SBCs. I was pleasantly surprised to pull this card as I was expecting the usual butt cheeks that emerged from these sorts of packs. Straight away I knew I would be able to start this card in my team, which was an added bonus (I have left a link to the team that he features in)

He slotted in nicely next to mid Kenny, another 5 star weak foot goal machine with Rooney end of era, tucked just in behind in the CAM position.


I would love to say that this card is the perfect all round striker, however there are some drawbacks, let me start with the good. In the box, this guy is next level, as you would expect, both feet deliver hot rockets that just sail past Nick Pope as he looks on in sheer horror at what is unfolding before him. With the engine chem style his agility and dribbling are good enough to use left stick effectively, however he isn't going to feel like Neymar. His aggression more than makes up for the lack of strength as he is constantly winning the ball back high up the pitch for me. His pace as you would expect, is more than enough to beat most defenders in a foot race, coupled with the ability to change direction quickly and accelerate away, making space to shoot on either foot is really easy.


Now the one thing that does let this card down occasionally. For me I have two other attacking players who are far better at passing, so I will usually try to get Vardy on the end of the final pass and let my opponent guess which foot I'm going to leather the ball past his keeper with. It is the only minor drawback on an otherwise excellent striker, that being said. I do believe that you can get better value for coins elsewhere in the meta players like Mbappe and Neymar. BUT if you, like me are so very bored of coming up against these players, let alone using them. Give this guy a run out.


Thank you for coming to my review

Vardy Party

OMG! I packed this guy from an 80+ PP as soon as Prem TOTS was released and wow just wow. The card says 3 star week foot. Yeah that's a lie. With 99 finishing everything goes in inside the box. The best part of this card besides the finishing in the positioning and offensive runs. I play a 4231 with Vardy as my lone striker with David Neres right behind him and the runs he makes off of Neres are immaculate. I just played a ...

Jamie Vardys having a Fut Birthday Party

I was lucky enough to pull Fut Birthday Vardy out of my 85x5 PackPace-9/10Feels very rapid when making runs and on the ball, has more than enough pace to get past most center backs.Shooting-9/10His base stat of 97 finishing along with 97 attack positioning makes Vardy such a deadly striker. Very rarely doesn't find the back of the net, and the boosted 5...

Quite good

I packed him in an untradeable Division Rivals pack and honestly, I wasn't very excited as I'm not a fan of 3*3* players. However, as it was then worth more than 80k I decided to give it a try. I've played with him more than 30 matches in both Division Rivals and Squat Battles and he has scored 29 goals. I'm not a very good player though: gold 3/2 in WL. At firs...
