The GOAT
By BWFC1999, 13-01-2023

I bought Dzeko at the peak of the lengthy meta for 160k, since then I have played 598 games with him and scored a 608 goals with just over 250 assists to go in hand with that as well. He has been nothing but a rock in my attack since then.


I play him in a 2 striker formation alongside Mbappe, one major piece of advice for anyone who wants to try this card out is to pair him with an explosive striker with good dribbling and reasonable passing. His passing is pretty poor but for some reason his crosses are quite accurate.


Now he is 30k, unbelievable fun for this price, he will get you through lower divisions and hold his own higher up. He has been my favourite player I've ever used on FIFA. Expect fun not Elite division results.


The Bosnian Diamond, Edin Dzeko

Shooting: Outrageous, this man is a machine, powershots, finesse all good but his basic finishing is just ridiculous. His chip shot with keeper rush will never miss, I've easily picked up 100 chips with him since purchase.


Pace: He was a god during lengthy and he's a god now, as of 13/01/2023 with a hunter he will beat any defender in the game in a straight line.


Physical: This man has bodied every defender in the game, it's ridiculous. This plays into him defending from the front as he will often steal the ball off a defender and get a ratty goal.


Heading: Outrageous in open-play any accurate cross in will find this man, from corners he's definitely good but certain defenders will outjump him like Tomori or Rudiger.


Dribbling: Not Neymar but definitely not awful, he can control the ball and make a decent turn, the odd fake pass ends up skimming a defender as well. Consistent.


Stamina: For those 120 minute games you may want a substitute lined up, I use Forlan but any ST should do.


Passing: Really not that good, short passes shouldn't be a huge issue but don't expect prime Iniesta. His crossing is actually surprisingly good as he has racked up around 250 assists for me over 600 games.


Links: Very hard to link as of review, I use Brozovic but later game additions may benefit this.

What a lengthy BEAST

Was not happy with my squads performance through 7 weekend league games, I was 3-4, so I went looking for something new and fresh to replace my Benzema up top. After glancing at the new promo nothing peaked my interest initially, but as desperation set in and I did a little more in depth digging, Dzeko with a hunter looked like he would solve my problems!In the next 13 games this man scored 27, yes 27 goal...

Yes but no

When this card come out I was really excited to taste it. It looked like a really finisher, and he is, but it's not a good striker. I played with him all Weekend League, and he was a clinical finisher. Almost everything he touched inside the box was a goal, and even a couple finesse longshot. But outside the area... oh god. He can't handle the ball, he can't...
