89 - TOTY Honourable Ment
I packed this guy recently and despite the fact I was building a Liverpool P&P team (I'm still working on it tho) I decided to use him as ST along Fernando Torres with Mo Salah and Mané playing their role as wingers.
Foden's gold card is insane or at least it was for some time when the game launched - still a pretty solid choice for beginners - then you could imagine what a upgraded specially tremendous TOTY honorable mention card can be. My man is ready to bang in Denmark again!
- In game personal experience:
He is very agile, can outpace many of the meta defenders using hunter chem style and his shooting is astonishing. Despite the fact he doesn't have the meta traits a.k.a finnesse shot or outside foot shot he is still lethal. The upgraded 4* weak foot put all the pieces together and put him on an another level.
Dribbling stats are insanely great along with his 'lean' body type make this guy's dribbles very smooth. Ofc he isn't Mbappe, Neymar or any other super skiller with unique body type but he do the job very well.
Passing is great (91 vision, 84 crossing, 91 short pass and 86 long pass) that's why you can basically use him anywhere up the front: RW, LW, CAM or ST. It's your choice.
Although all the great things this card can do there is always some downsides in every card and this one isn't different. His physicality is practically non-existent and playing as ST is way more noticeable for 50 strength and 71 aggression. He is not a good header neither: 55 jumping and 51 heading are the proof.
- Value and final considerations:
Guys, he is currently listed for 450k+ and to me is a bargain. If we compare some players around the same level (even SIF or TOTGS Salah) is a great card. If you pack this guy untreadable do not hesitate to use him, you'll never regret it. If you're running a Man City team then it is a no brainer. He is completely different from his Gold, IF, SIF and even Rulebreakers version.
- Great base stats. Specially pace, shooting and dribbling.
- Upgraded 4* Weak Foot is INSANE.
- Lean body type.
- Physicality. He is pretty weak.
- Headers.
- Sometimes long passing.
