91 - Icon
Don't be fooled by the 79 shooting, Laudrup is class. He'll put away goals in most situations, although the hard shots he's unlikely to score. The 90 composure and 89 curve really help with his shooting, as well as the hunter chemstyle which I have used. Laudrup's passing is immaculate, making him the perfect candidate for a CAM/CF role, which is where I deploy him. His dribbling is incredible and better than mid Hagi. I used mid Hagi before trying Laudrup and I have to say that Laudrup's 6'0" frame makes it more difficult for defenders to take the ball from him. Hagi on the other hand was easily robbed. With 4 star skill moves, Laudrup is limited to skill moves such as the la croqueta, roulette, Ronaldo chop and the Berba spin. Regardless, Laudrup is a very smooth dribbler, and his playmaking skills are second to none for any card less than 500k.

For context, I normally play in the Elite division, but have been dropped to the 2nd division for season 3.

I got laudrup from an icon pack and i was initially immensely disappointed. But I always give all icons a go due to the "icon effect", which is very much present on this Laudrup card, might I add! His dribbling with an engine is neymar-esque. I specified neymar for a reason. He has the same sort of sticky where the ball rebounds to him or is attracted to him even when tackled. It is extremely obvious!! I would say that Laudrup has even better ball retention than Neymar! The L1 stops and sudden direction changes and acceleration is EVERYTHING when it comes to efficient dribbling with Laudrup! As the popularizer of the La Croqueta irl, Laudrup does not disappoint in that area in game too! I genuinely do not know who else I would rather on the wing in my team. Yes we have faster players with 5 star skills but they don't have the specific dribbling intricacies Laudrup has. Shooting is ok, not amazing due to the low shot power but he never fails to finish a good finesse after cutting in from the left. Passing is perfect, crossing especially, I mean we are talking about Laudrup here, no surprise. Physicals wise, feels like 75-80 tbh. He wins a majority of pings to him in the air on the wing, largely due to his height. I really didn't fancy Laudrup with a hunter btw... All this testing is in elite btw and i think i love him so much imma name the team after him.
