Player Review
88 - World Cup Hero
Got him from Base/World Cup hero 86+, and I gotta say that he overcame my expectations. I'm a div 1/ rank 2-3 player and all I can say is that Smolarek is one of the best ST/LW i've ever used.
Very quick on the ball, dribbling feels very smooth. He outruns defenders like it's nothing + he feels very strong despite his rather short height and light body type. Idk why but sometimes he just couldn't finish some actions. On the other hand he scored from angles that I'd never expect someone to even hit a shot on goal. One of my favourites this year, and I recommend him to everybody.
Very fast
Agile
Strong and precise shooting
Pretty strong (is able to fight physically for the ball even with the likes of Van Dijk)
Might be inconsistent (this may be just)
Hard passes are somewhat a issue
