Player Review
89 - Player Moments SBC
As an Arsenal fan, I knew I had to do this SBC. He's been a let down this season (really ever since he signed da ting) but before that he was amazing for us and I can't simply forget that. I had been using Martinelli IF in his place so it was nice to get a central card that was "coin cheap" since I had fodder to use on him, and oh boy he did not disappoint.
I haven't noticed his work rates to be an issue as he still makes good runs and ends up in a good place for me to find him. His pace is great as is and he has a heck of a shot on him, right or left. Finesses don't work well for anyone in the box really but his are a bit better than most. Everyone looks at the card and will immediately complain about his turning/balance due to his body type but it doesn't feel like a problem at all. No, he's not Insigne but he feels way better than you'd expect him to.
Is he expensive? Yes. Is he overpriced for the stats + links? Yes. Is he overpriced for his performances though? No. 440k is pricey but I think it's absolutely worth it given the returns I got on the field. 27 goals and 10 assists over a single WL are enough for me!
- Pace
- Finishing
- Passing for a Striker
- Dribbling (much better than expected, but not the strong point of the card)
- Strength
