4.0

By VeronTheGoat, 19-04-2021

Got him from my prime icon pack, it is clearly an L, but i decided to try him on my weekend league because his stats are not so bad and i had to have an icon in my team for chemistry, Does he done it well? Yes, he definetly is not the meta i mean, by his stats you could say that yes but his physics and body type are definetly not meta. I would recomend him for silver 1 or gold 3 players if they need an atacking icon for that price, because i think that he is the best attacking icon for that price, or one of the best.I would not reccomend him for gold 2 or highest players because he dont fit the meta so well. One of the problems is that if you need an icon you may need a central one, one that plays on the middle of the pitch not one that plays on the wing. Try him in game as a striker because as a lw he will be shit because of his balance and bodytype. Sorry if my english is not well, i am not english speaker.

Workrates
Pace: It feels slower but the combination of pace and strength goes so well against the defenders
Shooting is great
Dribbling is nice
Passing it is also well
He will last a full match with any problem with that stamina

Balance
Headers and jumping
Long passes
Body type is not so nice but the good thing of this is that he is strong
He will be definetly bad as a lw

Catch me if you can cos I'm the England man

I do not review often, when I do it’s because I believe in a card, I am excited and I want others to get the same experience, John Barnes 89 is a phenomenal card and is worth you time and investment.That said if you are a meta whore, and all you want from a LW player is pace this is not the card for you your review is over, there are better options. If you are still here great! Gratz on...

Underrated?!

I used this card in Fifa 20 with a Marksman and he was really good. With EA changing the marksman Chem Style, I went for an Engine to improve his Pace, the passing and his dribbling. Pace Really really fast. We are not talking about a Mbappe level, but he definitely has a decent amount of pace ingame. ShootingYou can argue to slap a Hunter o...
