Player Review
91 - FUT Birthday
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.
