Player Review

89 - World Cup ICON
5.0
Don't Sleep on Him!
By TSQRDcs, 30-11-2022

Hello Futbin, first time reviewer here, I just had to make a post about Hernan Crespo. Some background information: I'm a Div 1 player and I've gotten lucky to try some top tier strikers out, some of them being Mbappe, Di Natale, WC Al Owairan, CR7 & WC Keane. I've got to say although this card isn't broken it did thoroughly surprise me.


First off let's address some cons about Crespo. Sometimes his stamina can be an issue, although I've found out of 18 games I've played with him I only had to sub him out once. His long passes are a little dodgy, he can get the job done but I'd say 1/4 of his long passes get intercepted, however I haven't found a problem with his short passing as he's gotten me 13 assists.


Now moving onto the pros. His shooting is clinical, if you get him open for a shot he rarely misses, his finesse shots are deadly and he's two-footed, can't praise him enough, I'd say he's on par with WC Keane in terms of shooting. If you're worried about his med/low work rates, don't be, his attacking movement in the game is really good, he's always in the right spot for a goal. His dribbling is pretty decent, depending on your connection he may feel stiff at times but it really hasn't been a problem for me, I'd compare his dribbling to WC Al Owairan. His pace is pretty good, I have him on hunter and he often beats the defensive line, however I wouldn't say he's a type of player you spam through balls consistently with. Last but not least, he feels strong on the ball oddly, I've seen him bully defenders for the ball on more than one occasion.


Overall I'd give this card a solid 5/5 considering his price, I don't think you can find a better ST for this cheap of a price, believe me I was looking for one.

G.O.D

I bought Hernan Crespo with all my coins (165k) and I don't regret it at all. I wasn't sure if he would be good. On The card pace and agility isn't the best but he feels way faster and way more smooth ingame. The first thing I noticed was his bald face, which is Del Pieros face ingame.In the first game he scored 4 goals and assisted 2 (div 3 rivals) and he felt so much better then exepted. His 5* WF is very im...

Hernen Crespo, Long haired fucker

Hi, first time reviewer here. I had to write a review, because i think that other ones are wrong. Crespo was praised by all reviews of this card. But when i got him from the icon pack, and tested him, i knew right away that he is absolutely horrid. I dont want anyone to waste their money on this crappy st. He couldnt score, nor get to scoring spots, he was turning like a truck, and his finishing was like old school Darwin N...
