95 - Icon Moments
After getting to choose from Riquelme,van Nistelrooy and Cech from the prime icon pick, I thought my luck had to get better from the 93+ moments pack from swaps. I grinded for several hours to get Yashin. I was already disappointed but tried him anyway. After all, he should be the best keeper in the game. Should is the key word here.
He is short, makes saves look harder than they should, almost never catches the ball and lets in really stupid goals. You could be defending perfectly all game and all of a sudden Yashin lets in some stupid near post goal from an impossible angle. I conceded them all with him. Long shots, shots that went under him, over him, at the near post, chips from all over the box, and the last straw was when Eusebio scored from a corner after I didn't even move him. He just headed it over him and he did some stupid animation trying to tip the ball over the bar and ended up coming short.
Only pro is that he is fast and comes off the line quickly. He did make some good 1 on 1 saves because of that but for every good 1 on 1 save, he let in two stupid goals.
So in conclusion he is not worth playing with even if you get him from a pack, let alone pay 1 mil for him. FUT Birthday Neuer is waaaaaaaaaay better than him
Speed
Lets in stupid goals
Is short
Underwhealming for the price
Cannot be counted on in clutch moments to make important saves
(also no hat)
