94 - PL POTM SBC

4.5

SiuuR7

By sp4rry, 16-05-2022

PACE: His pace was actually quite bad. He struggled to burst past CB's and played better receiving the ball in the air, or to feet. This is mainly due to the fact that all viable CB's have min 85 pace at this point, and most have a shadow on them, so he stood no chance there. Though, he did not feel 'slow', rather 'not fast'

SHOOTING: As expected, this was by far his best attribute. The near perfect shooting stats meant that any shot in the box (and some out) were likely to be threatening, if not go in. Also his 4*WF felt like 5*, due to his animations and traits. And although it is niche, his free-kicks were nice.

PASSING: TBH, nothing special. The most he was doing was playing a through ball to Weghorst/Raspadori, so it was not an issue, but I feel like he would struggle over a longer range. But for my needs, it was fine.

DRIBBLING: On paper, his dribbling is average, if not below, due to the 70 balance, but his animations overcompensate for his flaws, as they allow him to take on players with some of the most BS and broken animations I've seen. It must be so frustrating defending him with the ball at his feet. Though I must say, he did feel clunky as the game goes on, which can be credited to his poor stamina.

DEFENDING: Low workrate means he never tracked back, though it's not his job so whatever. Nothing to say here.

PHYSICAL: His jumping and heading accuracy combo makes him so OP from corners. Every time, I would manually select him and make a run into space for a corner, and many times it came off. I would say at least 10 of his goals were from corners. Further, his strength + animations made him hard to push off the ball. But the major problem with this card is the stamina. He runs out around the 75th minute, making him feel clunky and unreliable late in the game. Also I personally love a player with high aggression, which Ronaldo lacks, but that's just my preference.

PRICE: 800k seems steep, but if you can do it with fodder/grind, it may be worth it. He's not the best ST on the game, not even close, but he sure does the job for me. Also the price may be justified due to the fact that he is CR7, depending on who you are.

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.
