Hey everyone

I thought so long about my new squad conception. When I was searching transfer list I found him. Well, he isn't as bad as people think. He is quite agile, his drribling is fast and he also has quite good balance. His shots are actually amzaing and I really enjoy them. Sometimes he wasn't fast enough but he made up it by his physicality. I also like his passes but they weren't always very good, and sometimes I complained about them. I'm quite happy about this card, I like him and I recommend it to players who has a little money and they need false nine. But what about much better players. Well I think that you can buy it just for fun but don't to play him in fut champions.

I get this card out of one of my first packs to start building my team as a non-tradable, so I feel forced to start building the team around him, I have changed my team several times, also playing with other stikers, but at the end I have finally built a competitive team with him up front.

I think that he is a very underrated striker, only because he doesn't have a breakout pace, but trust me he is a very good forward if you get comfortable with. I play him as a central striker in 433 with 2 CDM and 1 CM, he links with Messi and Demebele IF and with Pogba 88 IF at midfield. Putting him hawk and playing with false 9 tactic he is a very solid striker.

His better areas are the shot and the physicality in my opinion. This guy has dynamite in both foots, great curve and very accurate in voleys, but also very effective in protecting and handle the ball and exceptional in headers. His better quality for me is that he is very difficult to be makred by defenders without the ball, because he moves effectively all around the offensive end and also in midfield. he is also a pretty good first defender in pressing.

As I said before he is not pacey but very effective in cutting behind defenders in the last meters. His passing is a little bit overrated by his stats, because when off balance he sometimes miss passes.

I don't know if I would invested in him if I haven't found him in packs, but overall I will run with him as my main striker. Recommended!

This Karim Benzema card is actually pretty good. I actually played him at CAM in a 4312 to offset his low pace. He held up with his passing being exactly what I needed. Despite not having the "meta" pace he is a fun card. His finishing cannot be any better and the other stats are good enough for him to hold his own in div rivals. He had about 11 goals and 10 assists in about 20 games. To be fair, he was providing to prime Hugo Sanchez and POTM Felix so his chances to score were usually given to them. He feels pretty clunky in game and moves like a bulldozer. I can only see non-meta players and Real Madrid fans using this card. I got him for only 87k so for the quality of the card and the price I believe his value for coins is extremely high. if he had over say 85 pace his price would be doubled. If you are looking for a fun card to use I think he's worth the buy. For the price, he is such a low risk card as his rating and being IF will keep his price stagnant around 100k. His stamina did disappoint me as once he is tired he cannot make any runs as he was already getting caught up with at the beginning of the game. Once he gets tired he has 0 chance of outrunning anyone. Also, I used Hunter on him just to get that pace boost. His 86 passing is good enough for CAM but I probably would have been better off using one that also upgraded his passing.
