Haaland Time

By shebbear2, 28-08-2022

What can I say. Haaland is a revelation.

I'd been waiting for an interesting Premier League ST SBC for a while, and Haaland fit the bill. First ten games he scored 15 goals, with six assists. Scored 7 in the next 3 games. He has single-handedly won me many, many games. He's a phenomenon.

Is he easy to use? Yes. Though it took a couple games to get used to him.

How's his finishing? Powerful and accurate. He seems to "get hold" of balls that would usually have no hope, getting decent shots off in awkward positions. His finishing in typical positions is perfect, really. Hard to imagine a better shooter of the ball. Oh, and did I mention he has 5* weak foot?

How's his dribbling? He isn't clunky, surprisingly. At all. But he isn't Neymar.

How's his passing? Excellent. No complaints at all.

How's his physicality? Here's the rub. He's big and he's tall and defenders can't cope with it. Furthermore, I used the guardian chemistry style to upgrade his dribbling and defending, and the extra defensive stats makes him a menace when he does, rarely, lose the ball. Honestly found myself laughing many times at how absurd he is on the ball, powering into defenders like they're made of paper. (Just like real life.)

All in all, Haaland is a delight to use. A brilliant attacker and, importantly, a fun one. Highly recommended.

Finishing.
Strength.
Pace.
Passing.
Dribbling.
Defending (with Guardian).
5* WF.

He isn't Neymar. His dribbling is solid, really solid, but close dribbling isn't his strength.
Your opponents may rage quit more often than you'd like.

Erling Haaland

ABSOLUTE BEAST

This man is an absolute beast 20 goals and 3 assists in 7 games. He does not miss, blast it at the keeper and it's in, left foot or right foot, doesn't matter. He also has better dribbling than I thought he would have. My go to striker in FIFA 22.

Haaland?

When I packed Haaland I was extremely eager because I'm a fanboy and I really wanted to try him but then a feeling of dread came upon me when I remembered his height and his agility. As I expected he is good at shooting, his positioning is excellent, but of course he is a truck of a man. I think Haaland is the type of card you need to know how to use correctly. Do not be sad when he looses the ball, doesn't run as fast as y...
