Mustache is love. Mustache is life.
By RektField, 19-10-2021

I was looking for a striker with okay pace, good shooting and beeing capable of netting some headers, I came along Ian Rush and for a steal about 300k I was like "fck it lets try!". After a WL with Lukaku up front. Ian Rush felt so refreshing! And then the moment came and he scored his first goal: the close up camera revealed his real strength: THE mustache. This was the moment I fell in love with him. Happily he scored a lot more times in the WL and every time the close up cam arrived, my heart was filled with joy.

But ngl it's not just the mustache (but mostly) - Ian Rush feels very smooth ingame, got nearly perfect positioning and has insane shooting. He feels way more faster than 83 pace (with Hunter ofc) and even his below average agility feels okay due to his height (he still scored a LOT of headers!). In a 4231 as a lone striker, he was the main carry for scoring and he deliverd fantastic with 27 Goals in 20 Matches this WL. I guess he will be my striker for a long time, bc I just fell in love with him and his mustache.

Mustache. Like for real.

Pace (in relation to his actually 83)

Shooting

Smooth L-Stick Dribbling

Long Shots are quite nice too + he got the finesse shot trait!

Insane value for about 300k

Skill Moves. Yeah just dont try, wont need it anyway this year.

Passing is okay but not that great

Surprising

Many of you will be here because you got him in an icon pack. This gentleman popped up out of my mid/prime icon pack, much to my dismay, but after looking at his stats I wasn't too disappointed. He looked promising in a way. And although it may have taken all my coins and fodder to receive him when I could've just gotten him for a sneaky 90k, the adrenaline an icon pack supplies you with is worth it.I plac...

Great Mustache. Everything else? Laughable

I like to use icons because some are fun to use and look at in game. I play at least 20 games with the icon to feel the player out and make an honest opinion on the player. I play in Division 2 or higher.I packed Ian Rush out of my mid icon pack and was pretty bummed out after my friend packs Pele. I knew my icon looked way sexier than Pele with his great mustache but in game, Ian Rush absolutely changed m...
