91 - Icon Moment

5.0

absolute relentless buffalo

By Lukasssdls, 30-04-2021

You know when sometimes, you just can't decide which fantsay book or TV you want to buy the most? Well, i was facing the same dilemma having to choose on which top tier moments sbc to splash my fodder on: Dalglish or Essien. And then I thought: well, Kenny is 250k more expensive than Essien and I could do to upgrade my midfield (88 Curtis Jone and 89 Vidal). And my oh my did I not regret doing that moments Essien sbc. He is lade from the same gold of most of these top tier icon midfielders. The brilliant pace combined to his superb strength make him an absolute buffalo running wild around your opponent's team. Trust me, anyone wishing to get past that great wall of China will have a living nightmare because Essien will not leave any breathing space for an opposing player. His stamina is world class and his tackling ability is second to none. He is an absolutely phenomenal card, that I'd recommend you play in a 2 midfielder formation with him sitting there as a cdm, cutting off supply lines and harrassing the ball carrier. And, less but not least, his passing is also pinpoint. Just rush to do this sbc, cause, honestly, I don't see any midfielder now or in the foreseable future pushing this lad out of your team. He is just endgame

The best icon CDM !!!

I played 2 games of rivals with him, and that was enough for me to tell you that he is the best icon cdm in the whole game (excluding cms and cams etc... so like no gullit and vieira). He is the perfect cdm, insanely fast, a god at defending, mad strong. Short enough to be agile and quick, great short passing and even just to top it off u can do long shots with this monster. 3* sm is a bumber, so for me he could never be MY...

The Bison

Full disclosure, Michael Essien is my favorite player of all time, however I am determined to prevent that from affecting this review. Lets begin:The greatest attribute this card has in it's favor is it's versatility. Fully embodying the Gullit Gang life style, the 4* WF, High/High work rates, and in game size allow him to play basically wherever you want him to. Simply slap a new chem style on him, and he...

The african and better Viera

He is without any doubt the best cdm icon in the whole game, he interrupts nearly every pass of the opponent and wins so many duels compared with his unbelievable stamina he's a 90 minute beast. I played him for two weekendleagues and a few rivals games and hes was just class. I only spent like 150k on him and it was totally worth it. If you can make most of the SBC out of your club he'll probably cost you like 150-250k, an...
