Hi guys, I did this review on my yt channel (Luiselme) but ill also do the review here
So, Banza foundations, a very unexpected but great looking card, I must say I really like him, used him in 5 fut champs games and scored 7 goals
Seriously, his headers are a cheat code he is just a beast in a corner, also, his 189cm helps him to win physic battles with literally any defender, his agility and balance are not a problem if u use an engine, he is a very complete St bc he has pace, physically, good shooting and decente dribbling
His dribbling is actually decent, he can perform in a good way roulettes, croquetas, etc
So, my conclusions are that this Simon Banza is a great ST, I recommend a lot to do this SBC
- Great Pace
- 189 cm
- Nationality links
- Insane shooting
- One of the bests headers in the game
- Actually cheap for what he can do
- Decent dribbling
- Crazy physically
- 60 long passing
- League links?
I usually don't write review. but after trying this card for 10 game, I had too. he is f***g amazing. At first I taught he would feel kind of clunky but oh my was I wrong. this card is absolutely nuts. Slap a marksmen and he will finish everything in front of ya. Headers, left and right. If you give him the chance he will score. He is strong on the ball and will fight strong CB with no problem. High low WR as well. For 80k ish this card is a steal. I play 4411 with Corona has a CF and these 2 will make every kid cry. Those who have a cheap budget for there team. Him and Corona will brake many controllers. Just so you guys know. Elite division and rank 1 week in week out.
pace: doesn't need hunter. with marksmen he feels really quick.
shooting: bangs shot from everywhere
Dribbling: doesn't feel clunky and dribbles well.
Passing: can pass when needed
Phy: really strong with or without the ball. will bully everyone on the pitch
Work rate: High/low perfect for a striker
defending: who needs defending from a striker?
This may very well be the best SBC card so far this year in terms of value and quality. This card plays at the level of a TOTS and we are only in November. In my opinion he is a top 10 striker on this game. He has everything you want in a striker. He's 6'2'', he's fast, he's strong, he can finish, he can jump high and head the ball accurately, he's got 4*4* and H/L workrates. This is by a mile the best striker I've used this year and I've used Haaland, Immobile, Morientes, Lewa, and a few other top strikers. He is absolutely INSANE ingame. When you use him with an engine, his combination of pace, agility and strength is unbelievable. I expected this card to be a little clunky but he isn't clunky at all. He is extremely responsive and his change of direction is very smooth. This beast can also hold up the ball with ease due to his amazing strength. And with 92 jumping and 97 heading, he will magnet on to any decent cross and give his best effort. In conclusion, I'm just surprised that EA would make such a beast of a card so cheap at 80k. I would definitely do this SBC for 130k. You'd be a fool not to do this SBC
- Great height
- Very strong
- Reasonably agile
- Feels smooth
- Excellent finishing and positioning
- Great workrates
- 4*4*
- Fantastic heading
- Can only link with other French players
Im a Divison 1 Player, heading to Elite Divison. I usually play 4-4-2 with Premiere League and Bundesliga players with CR7 and Haaland in front. In Offense I switch to 4-3-3(4), where I play with Ronaldo as LW and Haaland as ST. Haaland is still a beast for my, has scored 258 goals in 272 matches. But surely he is not for everyone and has some waeknesses due to his weak dribbling, passing and jumping.
When I saw the Banza SBC i recognized a card how a Haaland-Card should really be. He is quick, has decent dribbling, 4star WF and dribbling moves, decent passing for a ST, strong, jumps high and is a scoring machine! Due to his height and his high jumps he wins many headers against defending big guys and scores them many times. In 24 games he has scored 20 and assisted 13.
Currently I play him in a 4-3-3(4).
- Shooting (9/10)
- Decent Passing (6/10)
- Jumping and Strength (10/10)
- Height
- Decent driblling
- Pace
- Balance (enhanceable with Engine)
- Long Passing
Wow what a card. I reviewed this card on my YouTube channel (skbradd) and my god what a beast he is! For how cheap the SBC is this card is a must have and he genuinely feels like a cheap mbappe. Do not hesitate to do this card even if you want to use him as a super sub because he will not disappoint anyone at all.
- Speed
- Finishing
- Set pieces + Heading (He has perfect positioning on corners and bangs 9/10 headers that land on his noggan)
- Positioning
- 4* 4*
- Short Passing
- Strength
- Long Passing (Do not try to switch sides of play with this guy)
- Agility? (Doesn't feel sluggish to me but have seen others complain on tiktok)
- Links? (Perfect nation just a not so great league but didn't bother me)
Simon Banza is amazing! I can only recommend him.at that price, you will not get a better striker. I started this weeks rivals with Ben Yedder at striker, and he was as he always is - Sweaty OP. But i was sure i needed something better for champs, so i decided to do Banza while waiting for WC Alessandrini to drop in price and... WOW. Forgot about Alessandrini so quick. Banza's shot is unrivaled, he made my Nkunku POTGS feel like a base gold card. He feels so light on the ball and changes directions so fast, and with his 4* 4* he can go every way around or past a defender. Used him as CF in 4-3-3(5), because i like this formation this year, but he can also be used in a striking duo, with someone faster than him on the side.
- Pace
- Shooting is INSANE
- 4* 4*
- Engine makes him a god
- Heading
- Good agility and balance
- Passing feels off, but engine makes it ok
- 5/10 times need sub after 75-80 min
WOW. What an incredible player!! This guy is fantastic. Like the title says, I call him Banzahimovic because he feels like Ibra did in FIFA 14. 4*4* combo along with incredible pace, shooting, dribbling, and strength is what makes him a top tier card. And 73k on Xbox? DO HIM NOW! I used him while online friendlies for the Uribe objective and he was banging in goals left and right! And his HEADERS WOWWWW!!! Probably the most accurate headers I've had all year and that's saying something! The only con would probably be his composure at 80 so I would recommend playing him in a 2 striker formation or in a 4231 with support on all sides. If you need a tall, strong striker next to Mbappe, this is your man!

Genuinely the best striker I've used under 500k
If you don't have the coins for Ronaldo, Di Natale or R9- most don't, then this guy is the best there is.
Qualitites
A brilliant all-round striker, this guy is a totally lethal finisher and a real game-changer
Used on Hawk, Banza has everything you need in a target man- tall (6ft2), very strong (94 strength), powerful, accurate finishing (95 shooting) and can outpace almost any defender.
His hooting is unstoppable- almost every shot goes in and his 4* weakfoot feels like 5*- he never misses.
Pace feels better than the stat would suggest, he can run past the vast majority of defenders without a problem, and if not he can use his strength to shield the ball nicely.
His dribbling is surprisingly solid without any kind of boost- I've seen other players use him on engine but i'd suggest hawk since he's always going to be a bit clunky because of his base strength and height. using Hawk just gives him lethal finishing and the strength to hold off any defender.
Heading is second to none. on Hawk, 99 Jumping (+ 6ft2), 97 Heading accuracy and 94 strength makes him a serious aerial threat, he's scored a lot of headers for me.
Passing is a lot better than his stat would suggest- has a lot of assists for me
Linkability
Not the best, not the worst. I've moved him to CM (ST in game) to link with all the other Liga Portugal Obj players and due to his nationality he links fine with my other players.
Even without any other Liga Portugal players, due to the amount of OP French player cards out there he's alright to link, though could be a little restrictive if you want to link multiple leagues together since he plays for a shit club- a green link is impossible.
Overall
100% recommend, even if just to use as a sub. He's got all you need in a target man, and could be a game changer late on as a sub- adding some pace and lethality to a tired team.

Surprisingly good passing over short-medium range- just don't try long passing...

Injury prone- though only gone off injured twice for me in 42 games
This card has been a game changer for me, I used to have robbie kean and he was at most decent. Kean was agile but I had to get really close in if I wanted to get a shot to go in. Whereas with Banza I have been doing shots from way outside the box and off balance and they all go in with high power and accuarcy. The hight and physicality is also key if your playing a 1 striker formation, banzas strength shows when hes going 1 on 1 against a defender. Overall top 5 best strikers I have used in 5 years of fifa, great card.
Great Balance

Clunky at times
so i did this card because i had a couple of untradeable french player that could fit him into the squad when he first came out and man he is amazing. I played him as a target man alongside Son and he racked up 30 goals and 36 assists in 60 games. absolutely unreal. With engine he feels very fast and only a couple times he felt clunky. shooting was great for the most part but he cannot make any long shots at all so don't try any finesses or shots ouside the box. his long passing was not an issue at all since he was sending dimes over the top to Son and his through balls were pretty good as well. hes also an absolute tank and doesn't get bodied at all.
overall this is a great budget striker and if you need a good target man you should definitly do him. hes not a player that will just instantly get you rank 1 but he fits his position very well. i think its just an 83 and 84 rated squad so its pretty good.
- pace
- shooting
- passing
- physique and strength
- 4*4*
- links since its only french pretty besides corona or uribe soft links
- clunky sometimes
- long shots
