90 - Bundes POTM SBC
4.5
Mr. Erling Braut Haaland
By AldoMunoz18, 18-12-2020

I had my doubts on doing this card but finally I decided to complete the SBC and I got surprised.

I don't consider myself as very good FIFA player but even in my hands it is a very good striker, first of all I would like

to talk about his pace and physical, those stats are the key in this card because he lacks of dribbling. Strikers like Gabriel Jesus

use their agility to open up a space in the defense but this card uses his strength and pace to take down the defenders finishing it

with great shooting stats, he can score from any distance and you can't feel the 3* wf, he does it very well and it really feels like a 5*wf.


The only thing that I didn't like it's that his height does not make any difference, he very bad playing in the air.

  • Pace (once he starts running nobody reaches him)
  • Shooting (really good shooting from short-mid distance)
  • Strength (it's a beast)
  • Composure
  • Finishing


  • Dribbling (it just not that kind of player)
  • Balance
  • Agility (sometimes it just feels too bad, it may depend of your connection)
  • Jumping and head accuracy
  • Passing (as I already said he's not that kind of player)

The Best FINISHER in the game
By dylanjt16, 19-12-2020

(this is my first review so sorry if I miss a couple things)


So I had my initial doubts however I had the players in the club and I had just completed Gnabry so I thought why not.


And all I can say is I was right to do it!


Haaland will get a lot of stick because he isn't agile or turns like a truck, but that's because you aren't playing him right! he is a FINISHER as the title says, give him the ball in the box and he will score! right foot or left foot or header doesn't matter! he scores them all, his 3* WF might aswell be 5*


So I will finish it off by saying DO IT, He is amazing and will not let you down! just make sure to play someone agile up top with him I personally use Joao Felix POTM as my agile ST and I have Freeze Gnabry and Freeze Thorgan Hazard on RAM and LAM in a 4-2-2-2


So deffo do it if you want a deadly striker and my advice is to use Engine them style for that pace and agility boost

Finishing

Pace

Strength

Heading

Weakfoot (doesn't feel like 3* at all)

Finesse shots

His passing isn't bad either

Dribbling, Genuinely isn't awful however he isn't obvs as agile he is just a finisher

Erling The Beast
By Mcjens01, 20-12-2020

Dear Erling,

I am going to be honest with u. You are not the best stiker in the game, but if you are not a meta **** and u just want to have fun, he is great. I am a Dortmund fan i like to have a left footed striker in my team. Plus i had my club stacked, so he cost me around 50k. I would not recommend paying 350k to be honest. He is an absolute beast on the ball, he can really walk trough the defence. His dribbling is alot better than i expected, he doesnt keep the ball close to him but he has some moves. He finishing is amazing by the way but that almost didnt have to be said his weakfoot is decent feels like 4* i would say. He is fast, but i would recommend some faster players around him. I used Bebou next to him in 41212(2) and baby zola at cam. He let me down in the air tho, he jumps like his pants are full of bricks. His passing is where i was really suprised, in a good way. He didnt miss 1 easy pass for me and gave some great assists. His stamina is good enough but i sub him anyway. And i wish all of u a merry Christmas :)

The Golden Beast
By FUTGRIN, 21-12-2020

On Friday, after Lewy won the "The Best" award, I decided to complete his POTM SBC. But it was difficult to build a team around him, because I hadn't a lot of Bundesliga players. Then, EA dropped the Golden Boy, Erling Haaland POTM and Gnabry Freeze, and I was able to complete my team. I confess, I was scared at first, because of the lack of agility that Lewy and Haaland have. Anyways, I started my Wekeend League and got surprised. Erling is a BEAST. Guys, who has doubts in doing his SBC, just do it. He'll not desapoint you. The lack of agility that I was scared at first? Nah. Just press L2 and the defender will go down, seriously. And it's not that bad with engine, I swear. The 3* WF? Seems like 4*, maybe 5* depending of the moment, because his shoot stats are insane. Everyone always thought I was going to "force" with his left foot, but his right foot is very strong too. But if you don't want to use his right foot, it's OK. Be quick, go for the left and shoot. The goalkeeper will not have a chance. Other thing, he's def work hate is high, so, everytime he press the defender. When he loses the ball, he'll quickly try to steal it back, and most times he got it. Also, he's very very fast. With his help, I reached Elite 3 with one game left. He got 43 goals in 29 games.

Shooting

Headers

His Weak Foot is not that bad

His Agility and Balance is not that bad too

Strenght

Composure (HE'LL ALWAYS SCORE)

His passing isn't too god

Erling Håland POTM - An honest review
By lwste15, 05-01-2021

Before I even talk about the quality of this card I want to first say, do not build a team around him. Only do him if you need a Bundesliga striker. So how did he do, well he started off slow and was completely outshone by his strike partner Butragueno. I realised what was wrong, I originally put an engine on Håland to fix his agility and balance issues, but they're still just as bad so you effectively make the chem style boost ineffective, so I switched to a catalyst to boost his pace and passing and it made a world of difference. I have played 50 games with Erling now, admittedly some off of the bench, and he now has a record of 32 assists and 53 goals. He's a full blown goal machine with strength that no defender can match and a finishing ability that makes his 3* WF feel like a 4* WF. The one problem however, and it's a big one, is still the dribbling but if you use him in the right way doing quick pass and go's with him then he'll be sublime, just don't spam the sprint button with this card. Would I recommend him? Yes. Would I suggest you pay 370k for him? No. Bundesliga guys will love this card and is worth doing if you have SBC fodder, otherwise give it a miss.

Pace once he's got in behind




Finishing




Weak Foot is sublime




Passing is actually decent with the catalyst

Struggles with crosses if he ends up outwide




Clunky, just will not suit some of your styles of play




Linkability




Skill Moves for some will be an issue
