96 - Headliners
5.0
Cheat Code
By pulp, 05-04-2022

I checked his reviews today and saw someone had made a negative review about him so I decided I should make my own. I'm in Elite Division and get 13-16 Wins in WL


I got him a couple days ago instead of my TOTY Lewandowski to play alongside my Prime Pele. (I had to make massive budget cuts to the rest of the team but it was worth it). He's an absolute cheat code. I think he's perfect for a 2 ST formation with a shorter more technical player next to him (even someone like gold messi would do fine imo). Tall enough to win headers, short enough to squeeze through the defense. Fast AF and really doesn't miss. I use him with Marksman and he is a beast. Probably slightly overpriced and if you have the fodder just do the POTM instead but tomorrow this will be 1 rating lower than his TOTY and he'll match it if he gets one more IF, so if you wanna take a risk and buy him with the hope of him getting another upgrade I say go for it.

Endgame card, usable till september.

I was lucky enough to pack TOTY Ronaldo and make a tidy profit of selling my team and after deciding I wanted to make a big purchase I settled on this man... a few million for one of the best looking cards in the game who is undoubtedly going to see few upgrades was incredibly tempting and since he's the cover star I was certain that this man would bag. However, unfortunately that was not the reality.


I used a multitude of chem styles and played him on the left and the right to see how he performed. I found he was most effective with a marksman but also playing him with a hunter made him much faster despite the 99 pace he already possesses. His best position was most certainly on the right side where he could drive to the box and have a pop.


Don't get me wrong this card, in some aspects is EXACTLY what you pay for, for example his pace was incredible and he turned every defender into mince meat with his strength which felt similar to that of Francis Nganou. There were countless times where I would clear the ball from a corner and this man would beat any lingering midfielder to the ball regardless of the distance he had to cover and then effortlessly drive it all the way down the line on his own to create a chance. His agility, does the job but he doesn't have that 'turn on a 5p coin' feeling that I craved from this bank breaker. Its important to remember that this card is not best used as a 'dribble around the box' card but a through ball merchant. He will, and this is a promise, get on the end of every through ball you play. This is why his agility is irrelevant. All he needs is a good ball to the right place and he's gone, no need for quick turns or the 5 star skills that have become so popular in FIFA, just through balls and vibes for this man to be the most effective striker.


But here comes the let down... Shooting - Mbappe is juicy for pace and it appears that it would be the same for shooting but its just not there for him. The classic first 10 games where your player seems to score everything were really promising until I noticed that this fraud I payed millions for was starting to frustrate me with his misses, only one in four shots would go in and although that's consistent and not awful, you have to remember this man is a multimillion coin player.


To sum him up he will absolutely butcher most defenders on this game but if not assisted by a striker he can lay off once that space is created, Mbappe is ultimately not worth the coins.

  • Pace
  • 5 Star - His skill moves feel way more slick that any other 5 star skiller I've used
  • Stamina - He can bomb it all game no problems
  • Scores almost every counter attack
  • Strength - Defo deadlifts elephants
  • Shooting
  • Balance - can get knocked over sometimes
  • Heading is pretty dodgy for a 6ft striker
