FBI, OPENDA DOOR!

By DarkS0uL, 07-10-2023

Cheers everyone. As every year at the early stage of the game, my top priority is it to find a striker which is well rounded in every area. I started with Nunez (Evolutions) and Osimhen but at the end both of them were too immobile for me. With Openda I discovered a player which has even more pace (espacially noticeable in his explosive accileration), a very neat agility and on top of that also a robust physique.He basically showed all the stats I wanted and what can I say? He delivered. Whether it's his pace, his shooting, his dribbling or his physique. He is the complete package I was hoping for. I always feel like he can create chances out of nothing and I already played some games with great comebacks where I was down like 3-4 goals and I catched up not seldom because Openda scored a hattrick. It just feels great to know that you have a striker in front which is giving you hope for the game even if it doesn't look good and you're behind. The 3* Skill Moves are not an issue for me because I'm not the typical skiller. I tested him on Basic, Finisher and Maestro. In my opinion you should definitely go for Finisher. He performed well with all 3 Chemstyles but probably the best with Finisher. If you might think that he is a bit expensive, always remember that he most likely will get 2 IF Upgrades as Leipzig quite surely will win at least 2 more games and go through as second place behind City, so you're already kinda paying for that in advance. I played him most of the games in Rivals Division 4 and a few games in Champions. Well folks that's basically it, I won't elaborate any further in great detail, for that you can look below at the Pros and Cons, I think that speaks for itself.

Thanks for reading and GL for your journey

phenomenal speed

good finesse shots

quick turns

persistent at holding the ball

close ball control

tight R1 dribbling

great walking paths

stamina

clean passes

very good headers for his height

great at accepting the ball from crosses due to his jumping power

"complete" striker

could've had more playstyles for a card on this level

3* skill moves (not an issue for me personally)

not that easy to link if you don't want to go full Bundesliga

Worth the price

280k may seem like a lot, but he is definitely worth every bit of the price. His speed and strength is beyond most players in this game, and his step overs are Ronaldinho-esk. Once he's running its almost unstop...
