86 - Versus Fire

Poor mans SS Ben Yedder

By shrimp123, 15-12-2021

Seriously this card is very good. I wouldn't go as far to say it's unbelievable as there are a few small drawbacks. But for the price I don't think you can get a better solo striker that feels this good.

Shooting

He can finish from anywhere inside or outside the box even without shooting traits (slight drawback) however his left foot feels underwhelming occasionally (5* WF would make this card S tier in my opinion). I have used this card in the elite division and champs qualification so far and he has scored 37 goals (yes, 37) in only 21 games. He's an absolute beast at finding the back of the net.

Dribbling

His dribbling is nice but not elite and sometimes turns a bit stiffly in comparison to a SS Ben Yedder or Vini, probably due to the average body type. It is good enough to beat defenders in close situations but does leave a bit to be desired. He doesn't have the ability to "dance" like a Messi or Vini. Skill moves feel responsive and fluid.

Pace

His pace is a tiny bit lacking but it feels generally alright when using a hunter chem style. Enough to beat defenders a lot of the time when making runs in behind. Could do with a tiny bit more acceleration.

Passing

Not much to be said, feels fine as a solo striker. Don't expect any crazy passing like a Ginola or Neymar but is definitely good.

Physicals

He is good at shielding off defenders most the time unless you are against a defender with very high strength but don't expect to be bully anyone with his 5'7 frame. The aggression is quite nice as he will track down the ball when he loses it.

This is where the card is really nice and offers more than a lot of strikers in the 100-250k price range, he makes very intelligent runs and often fills open spaces. He knows when to come short and also when to make runs in behind. Makes the right choice in 9/10 situations.

Comparisons

I have used a lot of great strikers this year. Mbappe, NoUp Felix, Cruyff, SS Yedder, Ginola to name a few. He isn't on the same level as Mbappe, Cruyff, Ginola or Yedder but for a fraction of the price you cannot be surprised. Unfortunately after using all these strikers I have been left with Correa so I could fuel my pack addiction. But I am very happy using him and imagine he will remain in my team for at least 3-4 weeks.

Overall

He is very good especially for the price. I think you would struggle to find a better striker in this price category (that isn't an SBC). If you have a LaLiga squad I would highly recommend him. Don't expect the world out of him but he'll do a very nice job at a reasonable price.

Shooting

Overall Dribbling (average body type drags it down a little)

Pace (could have higher acceleration but solid overall)

I prefer players with 5* WF

Can be a little bit stiff when turning on poor performing servers (blame EA not the card)

Cheap SS Ben Yedder

With a Hunter compared to Ben yedder he has ... 98 Pace vs 97 of Ben Yedder- His 98 pace combined with his 90+ Dribbling means he can easily get past the Kimpembe's , Hakimi's and Mendys's of the world. He feels as fast as any player I've used. No complaints. He also makes great runs into space so 1-2's with him are so hard to stop.95 Shooting vs 94 of Ben Yedder - 99 finishing , 94 shot ...

Ángel Correa POTM

This is my very first review of a player in Fifa 22. I apologize for my bad English but that's beside the point now. Well, I've only played 10 games, but in those 10 games Correa did a very good job with 7 goals and 2 assists. His drubbling is quite good and he feels very agile which helped a lot for his position with me (CAM). He was often able to bypass a large number of opponents and did n...

Correa absolute beast

Amazing early game player he feels amazing at the ball! Bought him for 8k and hes the best player in my team i thought his pace would be a problem but he feels really fast on and off the ball. 4* 4* is great his dribbling and passing is amazing. Only problems are his height which can be a big con as a striker his heading and his penaltys, thats all negative i can think about. He's just amazing i think he'd also be a really ...
