Le Magnifique!
By YusYusFifa, 16-11-2020

Thierry Henry. One of the worlds best finishers and one of the best finishers English football has seen. Decided to go for the mid card and oh my goodness he didn't disappoint. The card was mental and did well in all aspects. I'm gonna keep this short because I don't wanna waste your time. Oh and by the way, I used him as a lone striker in a 4-2-3-1 Narrow.


Pace: 9/10 He was very quick and could outrun the sweaty defenders such as Joe Gomez. He reminded me of the invincible Arsenal version of Henry.

Shooting : 10/10 His shots were deadly. The way his shots would curl was just so satisfying to see. The finesse shot that this guy has in his locker is insane.

Passing : 6/10 Passing wasn't great. It was slow and the accuracy wasn't that great. It wasn't much of an issue but it was quite frustrating.

Dribbling : 8/10 Agile, the ball is glued and sticked to his feet. He is a great dribbler and he can get past his opponents in a fancy and silky fashion. I lowered it to 8 because he has 63 balance. Even if you put an engine on him he only get's 73. That was an issue.

Defending : N/A. Had him on stay forward and he didn't have a situation where to defend. Therefore, ain't got anything to say about his defending skills.

Physical : 7/10 He could shrug off his opponents because of his strength and height. He did lose quite a few muscle battles because of his 66 aggression. He also fell over a lot because of his 66 balance. Apply an engine and this won't become a common occurrence.

Pace

Shooting / Beautiful finesse shot.

Dribbling / Dribbling stat, ball control, agility.

Strength.

Height

Low heading stats, but height helps him win headers, despite his low jumping.

Game changer

Stamina / Because I reserved his energy by telling him to stay up and don't come back for defending.

Balance

Jumping

Agression

Most of the physicality stats.

Price / Isn't worth 1.2 Million.

Underused and underrated, but not god-tier

I wanted to buy a forward to rely on with a price between 750k and 1 million coins to use for the weekend league. I've used CR7 Mbappe, prime Crespo, POTM Lewandowski. Henry and CR7 are definetely the two best out of all of these guys (IMO). Anyways I would never grind 17 icon swaps for any card unless its prime r9, so I don't suggest doing so with Henry, even though hes class.


Pace (9/10)


Feels a bit faster than CR7 but a step slower than Kylian. Once he gets in behind hes through on goal. class. SOmething unique about henry is that he almost glides.


Shooting (10/10)

his shooting blew me away. Great with both feet. Finesse shots are GODLY. Like oh my god if you have a good angle on his right foot spam finesse shots. I expected his finishing and shooting to be great but his shooting and finishing exceeded expectations. Finishing for me is on par with CR7 and POTM Lewa, he just doesn't miss.


Passing (9/10)


Class. 85 passing doesn't lie. Really nice addition to have for a striker. Great with through balls and great at laying it off to a winger in the box. Great with link up play.


Dribbling (9/10)

If you spam meta skill moves with him (like you can with Neymar Mbappe and CR7) you wont be succesful. His first touch is class and he glides on the ball. Def not as good as Neymar and mbappe but definetely serviceable. Don't treat him like Neymar, because hes not.



Physical (8/10)


Tall and relatively strong, what you'd expect. Def doesnt feel weak.


Overall hes a fantastic striker. For the Icon forwards that are around 800k-1 million hes probably the best option. Highly recommend. But I would def not do the 17 tokens for him.

Pace

Finishing

Godly Finesse Shots

Good passing

Decent physical

Intimidating striker to use ( I got a lot of messages from people after matches it was honestly weird)

stamina is solid. Def not an issue.

Class is permanent, guy simply scores bangers.

Except for finesse shots, he isnt god tier in anything. Don't expect to buy him and have him win you 20 games in the weekend league.

MEH

It really pains me to right this review as an Arsenal fan. I'm not going to waste your time, I'm a G1/E3 player and 87 Auba (both ST) is way better than this card. I have tried this card with a couple chem styles but settled on a Hawk. Take note his shooting is much better with a Marksman. His shooting is really really poor, but like it should never be this bad!! If you have 90 Bergkamp, Henry's shooting is a 7/10 compared to Bergkamps 10/10. Akinfenwa 74 has better shooting!!! His dribbling is acceptable but just MEH. (Auba is way better) Passing is really solid though, no problems there. Strength is good IF you boost it with a chem style. All things considered, this card is only "worth it" if you are an Arsenal fan. It is a nerfed Auba.

Decently strong

Wins headers from long passes if you boost his jumping

Feels like 5 star WF

Really solid passing

Good runs and positioning

Actually decent tackling for a ST

Really really bad shot power, like almost Sancho 87 bad.

Misses quite a lot of chances.

Can be clunky when the keeper rushes.
