92 POTM Salah Review - By "Merns"
By TheGloryBaws, 22-11-2021

Hello everyone, my name is Merns and i've decided to do this review on the 92 POTM Salah card today.

I'm sorry in advance, if i make any mistakes. My last review was back in FIFA 20 on Ike Oparas 92 TOTS, so bare with me.


Todays review falls on 92 POTM Salah.


9,5/10 PACE:

So to start things off, let's talk about one of the most important things when it comes to FIFA gameplay; The pace.

Mohamed Salah is known for his pace in real life, and this card is really pacey as well. My playing style in FIFA is literally counter-attacking plays. I love a good old fashioned counter-attack.

This card has 92 ACCELERATION and 94 SPRINT SPEED, and the card with a HAWK chemistry style feels like 99. The only reason i'm not giving it 10, is because it's purely not 99. If it was straight up 99 you could use a different chem style that would boost some other stats and therefore make him even better.

But overall, so far, so good.


9/10 SHOOTING:

Next up is the shooting. Here we won't really talk too much, he is exquisite at shooting.

I tend to green time my shots, however, for the sake of just trying to test his shooting, i've done a couple of games with timed shooting OFF.

Some key stats to his shooting: 95 POSITIONING, 95 FINISHING and 88 LONG SHOTS.

The HAWK chemistry style boosts shooting a lot in the right areas, mainly focus on the SHOT POWER and LONG SHOTS.

I can tell you right now, Salah's left foot is the most dangerous i've tried all year. The only card that compares with the shooting for me personally is Lionel Messi.

He shoots better than: CR7, Neymar, Mbappe, Fekir.

There is one flaw with his shooting, and that would be his WF (Weak Foot).

Don't get me wrong, inside the box you can easily shoot with his right foot, it will go in. Outside the box is different though.

This card would be 10/10 shooting if it had a 5 WF, but unfortunately you need to stick with his 3 WF and pray to the fifa gods that the servers are fast enough to keep up with Salahs dribbling so you can get onto his left foot for the long shots.

Therefore he gets a 9.


10/10 PASSING:

Passing is one of the key areas to my wingers, however, i did use Salah as a Striker in a 4-4-2 formation. Here his passing was perfect, he passes well with the short passes and nothing really to complain about. Never really tried to do some long passes with him to be absolute honest with you all.


10/10 DRIBBLING:

Here we go, this is Salahs strongest asset in my opinion. This guy dribbles like a magician. It's quick and smooth and he doesn't have those emphasis touches that some taller guys (Like CR7) does. There is only 3 players in the game that dribbles better than this guy; Neymar, Messi and Bernardo Silva (UCL).

Everything is good and therefore i just can't give him lower than a 10 to be completely honest.


5/10 DEFENDING:

I won't focus on this area as he is not a defensive minded player. So i will just straight up give him a 5/10.


8/10 PHYSICAL:

This is something that Salahs card surprised me about. He has very good physical presence. He is hard to get the ball off and that has definitely something to do with the Physical aspect of this guy. 81 Strength isn't a joke and pushes off cards like Varane, Marquinhos, etc. The Stamina is absolutely perfect and basically end-game. The only thing that he is missing is a little more Aggresion. But other than that, very good!


9/10 OVERALL:


Overall this guy is a machine. The SBC at the time im making this review is around 1 million coins, which is a lot!

I would say, if you can do the 88 and one of the 87's SBC with your fodders, i would go for it.

Otherwise save your coins and get someone like Neymar and Messi combined for around 1 million.

But don't get me wrong, this card is absolutely criminal and if you are a Liverpool fan or just a Salah fan, i would definitely do it. For me he was worth the time and effort i put into him.


Some key information:

In-game formation used: 4-4-2 & 4-2-3-1

Positions used: ST

Type of game mode: Divisions Rivals - Elitedivision (1850-1900 Skill Rating) & FUT Champions Play-Off & Final


Cheers for reading all the way. Hope you enjoyed, and sorry if it was hard to understand, my english isn't that great, since i'm from Denmark myself.

BEST PLAYER IN THE GAME!!

For me, as a liverpool fan, getting this card was an absolute must. Once i saw he was leaked, i got as many summer swaps tokens as possible to spam fodder packs so i could get this card. Once he dropped and i saw it was 5* 5* and 99 rated, i lost my mind!! I did the SBC asap and threw him into my team and boy was i not dissapointed. In 7 games he scored 20 goals and made 4 assists, all in division 1, elite division and fut ...

Best Player Under 1 million coins

The best player I have used under 1 million coins in my opinion. I never liked a player who does not have atleast a 4*4* but Salah totally changed my view. I have used Messi, Neymar, Mane and Son but by far Salah stands out the most. I am not a top player but I usually finish Rank 2 atleast on FUT champs and DIV 1 on rivals so I know a thing or two about the game. In 20 games of weekend league he has been the best player an...
