Player Review
90 - FUT Future Stars
My god what a card.
At first I was a bit apprehensive. The sbc looked expensive as hell and I thought "there's no way I can afford this, surely. Absolutely not. Even if I could, I'm not going to destroy my club for one player again." Cut to me three hours later on an Avanti West Coast train quick-selling in-forms to get the fodder for this man. Do I have any regrets? No, absolutely not. What a card, 325k is a BARGAIN for this absolute goal machine. He's like Zlatan on crack. My man Charlie scores every type of shot: volleys, headers, belters, tap-ins, you name it. Tight angle? No problem, Charles over here will make your opponent's keeper look like he's never seen a football in his life. It's on his right foot? No problem, he's got a 5* weak foot and more shot power than you can count on 10 hands.
It's not just his shooting, either. 90 passing on a striker card like this is insane. You really feel the 91 short and long passing, it doesn't go unnoticed. His physical stats make him a nightmare to deal with for defenders, particularly at corners. He can wriggle free and use his tall frame and 92 jumping (99 with a marksman) and, in combination with his 91 heading accuracy, I can safely say I've never scored so many corners before.
"But his dribbling must be terrible," I hear you cry. And you may have a point. His tight, low-space dribbling is not that good at all. He's 6'4, quick as lightning and has a touch as deft and gentle as a forklift. Of course his close-quarters dribbling isn't fantastic. However this is more than made up for in how powerful a runner he is when you get him going at full pelt. I use a marksman chemistry style on him, because this makes him lengthy. So far I have used him in champs and div 3-1 division rivals, and his stats speak for themselves
77 games. 89 goals. 34 assists. One hundred and twenty three g/a in 77 games. Insanity.
