Disappointing to say the least
By BentekeGotBars, 06-02-2022

So, I finally decided to pull the trigger and get CR7. I was ecstatic to say the least. Boy oh boy was I disappointed.


Since the latest patch I found him quite sluggish on the ball, he was getting pushed off the ball like a 7 year old in the park by any and every defender I came up against. His finishing was by far the most disappointing part... left foot. right foot, finesse, chips, power shots all inside and around the box and barely a quarter would go in. It's almost as if his shots are magnetised to the post and crossbar. I genuinely couldn't score, it was so bad to the extent that the chances he missed would cost me champion games that I should have been winning.


Pace ( 6/1) He's fast but against the current meta of defenders couldn't get past any of them. His acceleration is far too slow for the player he is.


Shooting (7/10) He occasionally has that CR7 spark and turns a nothing chance into a goal. But I found when it came to simple or easy chances he simply wasn't finishing them.


Dribbling (8/10) One of the only good things about this card for me was his dribbling. Very smooth and silky, can drift past players but is easily pushed off the ball 5* helps


Passing (8/10) Decent for a striker. Nothing special.


Physical (6/10) Gets pushed off the ball like he's a sack of feathers. Especially against meta defenders (Kimpembe Varane etc). It was the most frustrating part of the game for me. His heading and jumping is on another level which can be useful.


I think there are genuinely many better options for half the price out there. Overall really, really disappointing card.

CR7 is back!

Hello guys,this year i opened a lot of packs during EA Play so that i had the chance to buy Ronaldo really cheap. I had to decide between him and Mbappe and chose him. I love to see him back in the United Jersey! I think he‘s one of the best players for this years meta. He‘s fast, agile and tall. His pace downgrade balance is no big deal. His attacking positioning and Runs are just phenomenal an...

Astonishing! (Cristiano Ronaldo POTM 94)

After trying this card out for a few hours I have come to a conclusion about his price & the quality you will get. I play him RS in a 41212(2) alongside TOTS Zaha. I strongly suggest you play him there as well, now, about the card, on stats you can already tell the shooting & heading on CR7 is always going to be one of the best in the game, he never misses, he is strong & ver...

Game Changer

So where do I start...Im lucky enough that i had a lot of packluck and some trading skills. After i saw the LF 99 card of CR7 i had to snipe him. The LF Cristiano got my emotions. He’s my main Striker in 4231 or plays next to Messi or Mbappe in 4222. He is unreal. He makes unbelievable runs and is always on position.
