87 - Hero
5.0
Just Wow
By OneDollar, 05-11-2021

Best forward tried. Played him as a striker in a 433(4) and a 442 and I have to say he is a goal-scoring machine and overall one of the most complete forwards so far.



Pace: 98(88) - Can't get much faster than that and you feel it in game. Coupled with his dribbling/agility he easily outruns the defenders both on runs and from a standing position.


Shooting: 90(84) - He just loves scoring. Great overall stats especially for the chances he gets (volleys on runs behind the defenders/ turn around while pressed from behind and shoot)


Passing: 86 - Rarely misses a pass. His short passing game is solid and when needed he can put a cross. Haven't really tested his long range passing since he usually is the most forward player.


Dribbling: 90 - His dribbling is insane. One moment you are back to the goal with VVD pressing you, and with just a flick of the left stick you'll be facing the goal with no one but the keeper to beat. Once he has the ball between his feet, it'll be though to lose. I am not a good dribbler (probably the weakest part of my game) but he just beats the defenders on his own!


Defending 51 - /////


Physical 72 - Now this one is pretty funny. Decent jumping but not really useful since he is 176cm, but still better than expected. His stamina is a little bit underwhelming, but he's one of those players that keeps on going even when his stamina is depleted. Strength is the real jewel of the crown, 69 (nice) on card but somehow he bullies Varanes, VVD's and any other Kimpembe you throw at him simply outmuscling them.

Other Joe Cole Reviews

Coleinho

Since there doesnt exist many good attacker in the game yet I decided to try out Cole as my striker for the first WL. He played alone up top in a 4231 and help me massivly in securing rank 2. If you like to get the ball into the box to twist and turn this man is for you. Doesnt quite have the pace to run in behind on through balls put he isnt slow. Scores most of his chances which is always nice and has really good passing,...

Cole World

Was honestly disappointed to pack Joe Cole in my 1 of 5 95+ Shapeshifter player pick, but decided to give him a go and swap him in for Eto'o. El Shaawary was my CAM with Eto'o in the line up but decided to move him to striker to try Cole as a CAM. Strong links to my Atal so it was a reasonable decision to put him In the lineup.

The Perfect CAM

Best CAM ive tried so far has everything to be perfect i play him in a 4231(2) as the central cam and he still manages to have an amazing goal record. For his price he is better than Pele, ronaldinho, maradona and cruyff. He has everything to be a perfect cam: pace, shooting with a hawk becomes godly, dribbling, and amazing passing. IF YOU HAVE THE MONEY BUY HIM NOW!!! If you dont know how he feels ingame like Neymar 95 hea...
