origi is a contrevansional player in fifa. first he has 5 skill and 4 weak foot. second he is 6`2.

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 header and scores every header. His 5* skills also works wonders. I feel that he can dribble past any card in the game. An added bonus is also a potential +2 or +1 upgrade, which I believe would make this card incredible.

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.

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

Hopped back on FUT after about a month and a half away from it and did this SBC because I had a good amount of fodder in the club and I figured it'd be fun to try some of the new players. I am VERY happy I did. I plugged him in alongside POTM Moise Kean in a 4-2-2-2 to try and do some of the FUT CENTURIONS BERARDI objectives. I didn't have many Serie A players in the club so I was playing him at only 1/3 chemistry with a Marksman chem style equipped.

After only two games I built a team around him so he would be on max chem because he is a WEAPON. (Also wanted to try the new Kent card with him)

The main thing I noticed once he was 3/3 chem straight away was that he pressed more effectively than any other card I have used this year. Won the ball back multiple times in the opponents half and won most if not all 50/50 tackles with defenders. The pace combined with his height and strength made it so easy to get possession back quickly.

Second, his high ball control and dribbling when going at defenders/cutting in towards the box for a shot a pretty simple move. I don't use skill moves ever (never really learned) and I felt like I was just because of how tightly you can move around when he has the ball.

Finally, his scoring ability is unreal. I mean the guy was heading the ball in over Van Dijk on corners. I scored from outside the box, close-range after beating the CBs, and for whatever reason, this guy was clear in on goal with plenty of space for a through ball minimum 5 times a game.
