Super cheap BEAST
By sidistendeweah, 22-03-2022

I've used quite a few strikers in my squad, with all sorts of characteristics and ratings, but the one constant certainty is Marko. I bought him on the market for almost nothing but since then I played so many games and scored so many goals with him (and still do) that I just wouldn't bench him even for several strikers with better stats. This guy can do it all:

  • his pace is more than enough to get past defenders, especially with the hunter chem style. Great with through balls
  • his shooting is amazing, you can easily bag tons of power shots from different angles with both feet
  • dribbling-wise he's not Ronaldinho, but he's agile and usually keeps the ball close. Defo not clunky, he's in control also when he's sprinting
  • physically dominant, he scores lots of headers and opponents bounce off his shoulders on ground duels. Coupled with his dribbling, this also allows him to receive the ball facing away from the goal, protect it and turn to shoot

Bonus: ACROBATIC GOALS. Loads of them. Bicycle kicks directly from corners, scorpion kicks, volleys, backheels, I don't know why but he triggers those animations a lot more often than others. And you'll just love that.

Great as a lone striker or paired with a dribbler.

Emotional attachment: it's impossible not to love him, he'll become a legend of your club and you'll trust him enough to give him the keys to your house

Pace-shooting-dribbling-physical: see above

Incredibly cheap: the price to pay for his performances is just too good to pass up

SBC fodder: if by any chance you really don't like him you can throw him in an SBC, he's got a good OVR and links with Serie A and a few Bundesliga players

You'll sometimes be haunted by doubt when you decide to bench your shiny 99 OVR striker for this beast

Other Marko Arnautovic Reviews

idk how but he's insane

so basically is used him in a 442 at striker with a hunter next to el Shaarawy and he is cracked. I am currently in div 3 and he's bossing up the scene, he can score every type of goal, headers, volleys, pens, left foot, right foot, long shots. he bangs corners he can dribble really well for a big guy and can speed past the defence and hold defenders off with his strength. the combination of his strength dribbling and pace ...

The 50k CR7

What can I say about this man. As soon as I laid eyes on him I knew I had to take him into my weekend league journey. He is everything you need in a striker, big, fast, 4* 4*, can shoot with both feet. Any shots inside the box this man will finish. He is always in the right position to get the job done and can hold off any opponent.Pace 9/10 - Has more than enough pace to get away from defend...
