Corner Taken Quickly...
By redting, 17-01-2023

Still unsure if it's worth making a review on a cheap card when TOTY is on Friday, but even so, most people will want to be saving fodder where possible and that's all the sbc is tbh.


Most people will want to know, is he worth it, can he play as a starter but mainly, will Milan win? For any of my Serie A lovers, Milan have struggled following the restart after the world cup and in my opinion, they were not great v Lecce. Comparing their form to Inter, they are just doing enough to seal results. They were solid v Napoli (league leaders) but looked like they struggled against Verona (won 2 all season I believe). I would say I can see Inter winning, however the Derby della Madonnina always provides and Milan are not 2nd this season by fluke. Either way, he's 40k and I know you're all not that broke.


Enough punditry, more about Origi. Played 10 games in the second half of Div 1 with a hunter in 4231 with get in behind, where he has scored 8 and assisted 6 at the moment. Currently, I do not have a bad word to say about him and I love him. I'm not a Liverpool fan however, for his well known contributions to winning the UCL in 2019, it would be shameful if you fans did not complete him. I'll try to be brief on his pros/cons and remember all stats are preference to players but this is what I've found.

Pace- Next gen players have the option of controlled or lengthy acceleRATE. I've not tried him as lengthy but with hunter on 3 chem he is getting behind easily and does not feel slow on the ball either. Sprint speed>acceleration unfortunately but its not noticeable in game.


Shooting- I'd have laughed if you told me he has 87 finishing without me looking at his stats. Strikes are solid and green times are rockets. It's annoying he does not have the outside boot trait but even when you trigger the command they're absolutely fine. Finesses are decent but mainly been thundercun*ing shots with him.


Passing- Probably subject to each player but his short pass is high and thats fine with me. I'm not looking to cross the ball or play long field passes with him so I feel this stat is fairly pointless. His 1-2 plays and accuracy of passes are sound though.


Dribbling- The stat that put me off the most but surprised me the most. Agility and balance are not noticeable in game and his other stats show in game. High composure which helps as every opponent seems to play 2nd man press and its hard to get 2 seconds on the ball with most players, but he keeps the ball close and very well.


Physical- No need to say much here. 6'2" tall, average build with high strength and jumping to match the heading accuracy.


Heading- Can actually mount defenders in the box from corners which I've struggled with a lot this fifa. If not for him and Maldini I'd never score.


5*4* and High/Medium work rates- No need to say much again. Perfect work rates for a ST and the 5*moves is an added incentive to say he's so cheap so thank you EA.


Links- Compared to other FIFA's, there are some amazing Serie A cards, and with the new chem system you're laughing. Quality hero links and players from the league in general.

For me there's nothing that puts me off after using him. If you had a gun to my head then maybe his stamina depending how much you abuse through balls and OTT through balls. Some people may say the agility also but its so unnoticeable I cant say its a con.

Corner taken quickly......

I will try to keep this review short as he expires in 2 days as I am writing. I used him alongside World Cup Stories Giroud in a 442(2) and all I can say is every game was a goal fest. I used an Engine on this Origi card to boost his balance and he was unstoppable. I feel that is shooting is already fine as it is and now every shot finds the back of the net. 6'2" and 99 heading is the perfect recipe for goals. He wins every...

Origi Showdown review (before upgrade)

So, he is very good on the ball, he has speed, he's powerful, he can pass and even his dribbling is alright.
