Raúl's favourite lad
ByUnknown04-07-2022

So, since I'm a massive Raúl-Fan, I needed to get his lad Morientes. My boy Raúl needs to feel comfortable in this team and Morientes was a good lad.


I paid 77k for him and was expecting him to be a "Target Man". I was wrong, his positioning is very strange (at first): he drops deep into the midfield, even though I put "Stay Forward" on him. "Strange" is the right word, because it isn't bad at all. The first two games were horrible, horrible, horrible. He couldn't get into the box, literally nothing happened. No assists and definitely no goals. In the third game (probably after listening to me saying "I'll just get Lozano back into the team, I can't take this anymore"), my dude scores 4 goals and makes 1 assist. I understood his movement and got more and more used to it. Since then, it has been one hell of a "Goal-Party" with Morientes. He doesn't miss in front of the goal and scores with both feet. Once he smells an incoming cross, my dude runs into the box and heads it into the back of the net.


Scream it with me: MORIENTES!


That being said (Pros and Cons are under the written review): fantastic card for 77k. Not your META-Striker, but he plays for the badge and is perfect for my "Target Man - Agile Man (Raúl is agile, don't even @ me, Ben Yedder-Rat)"-Combo.


Recommended.

  • Raúl's favourite lad
  • Movement (once you get used to it)
  • Headers (you can't stop him)
  • Finishing (he scored from very bad angles)
  • 5* Weak Foot
  • Dribbling (he gets past everybody and doesn't feel clunky on the ball)
  • His hair looks pretty nice
  • Not the fastest (not slow by any means)
  • He's a big guy, so he isn't "META"
  • You need to like his movement or else you can't use him (I think that's the "Make it or break it"-thing about him)

About the reviewer: FIFA player since 1993, not a year missed. FUT Founder. No points this year except the 4600 - i trade a bit.

Please sir, can I have some Morientes?
FIFA 22 is a hard game to score goals on. I am currently in division 2 and the amount of games where it would be 0-0 at half time and end up 1-0 or 1-1 is crazy. That is... until I bought this beautiful Spanish man. It seems like this year the gulf in price between cheap meta and top meta is crazy - players like Mbappe, Neymar, Ronaldo are still crazy expensive, but your regular low tier meta players are so much cheaper (Mart...

Mooriieenteesss
Hello, today i present my review of Fernando Morientes FUT Hero Shapeshifter. Well, I get him from a pack for 50k, and decided to put him in the squad, my first feelings about him are: He is very fast, and agile, not as chunky as it might seem, his shoots are cosmic, he can shoot with almost every position, his weaker leg is amazing too, he has 5 stars which is very important so he can handle it great as a striker, but I play...
