98 - Summer Stars

5.0

BOLINGOLI THE BEAST

You actually can't stop the shine anymore!!!

For real, this card is absolutely mad. I was lucky enough to pack him in my Ultimate Pack for scoring in 200 rivals matches (I only started playing FUT 21 in December and have been busy with advanced courses) and I was hyped when I packed him because his stats looked insane.

However, I feel like some taller players have so-called 'fake stats' due to correlation of being tall with not being as agile and feeling as fast such as FOF PTG Yusuf Yazici, and was nervous that it was going to be the same case for Lukaku, but man was I wrong. Sure, of course he's not going to be as agile as Lorenzo Insigne, but he was much more agile than I expected, and there were very few instances where he felt a bit clunky. And unlike Insigne, he can hold the ball well and win headers.

If you pack him, try to fit him in your team. Otherwise, sub him on in the first minute. Too good to be left out.

Amazing striker!!!

Starting team: 4-5-1 formation https://www.futbin.com/21/squad/7491195

In-game team: 4-2-2-2 formation with him and FOF PTG Josef Martinez up top. https://www.futbin.com/21/squad/8741064

Shooting (best attribute, especially finishing)
Passing (can surprisingly do long-passes which is important for link up play)
Dribbling (holds the ball well)
STRENGTH (RUNS THROUGH DEFENDERS LIKE A TANK with his 99 strength and imposing figure)

Nothing really. If I had to be picky then lacking 5 star week foot and a bit clunky, but it's not even that bad.

THE ABSOLUTE UNIT OF A MAN

My goodness. Where do I begin. I have always loved Romelu Lukaku. The name is fun to say, he's the definition of a tank, and the tenacity IRL is the stuff of legends. I have however, struggled to effectively use him in Fifa. I've found his past versions to be clunky, and a fairly one dimensional "Power Striker." I was shocked to get Lukaku in my 4th player pick, and while he didn't fit my squad at the time, after a few game...

The complete striker!

If I would have to label one card as a complete striker, it would be Summer Stars Lukaku. I acquired this card and used him to complete the weekend league and he's been terrific! Let me say, it's already pretty difficult to express how crazy he is. First of all, it's tricky to pin down Lukaku's main strength. This guy is rapid, strong, an elite finisher, and his passing is top tier for a striker. Use his physicality...

Big Rom

All ill say is this, if you only use meta players and your defence is Mendy, Varane, Gomez and Semedo this guy probably isn't the best for you. This doesn't mean he's bad though. I'm only a div 3 player so i guess my opinion isn't the best but he is by far the most fun player I've played with in a while on FIFA in general and definitely my favourite in FIFA 21. If you want a fun player ...
