Player Review
89 - Fantasy Hero
Firstly, I play 4-3-1-2 in-game, him and Werner up top with Garrincha at cam
To be fair, he is definitely not a meta card. However, he is one of the most fun strikers I have used. His height allows goals from any cross or corner, and his finishing with a hunter (the only usable chem style for him) is impressive, much better than Fernando Torres. I know that the weak foot will be an issue for some players, but in Division 3 of rivals, he has scored 6 goals in 3 games, and not once have felt that he needs 4* weak foot. However, a couple of downsides are present. He has quite poor acceleration (although sprint speed is good) and his outside-of-the-box finishing is not great. But I really find him fun, he scores constantly, and the 5* skills do make him more usable. If you pair him with a quick striker, it would be ideal, he does struggle to get in behind without support. It's worth pointing out that he is dirt cheap, like 80,000.
-Heading and shooting, absolutely clinical
-5* skills
-Passing, it's fairly good for an out-and-out striker
-Strength, he holds off defenders quite well
-Maybe a bit slow, even with a hunter. His pace does require some management
-No shooting traits
