Player Review

absolutely crazy good striker, but you have to know how to use him. In my team he replaced centurions nunez and I got too used to nunez shoving away defenders/running through them, which this guy won't exactly do, so if you think he'll be doing that forget about it. Great ball control and his controlled dribble is very good because of technical, also has a very good first touch, can turn around quickly and beat defenders like that. Pace is great, I use him on hunter so he can outrun almost anyone. Not crazy blistering fast like for example nunez, but still very fast. His shooting is absolutely INSANE, almost every finesse shot goes in even from 25m+ you don't even need timed finishing or precision shooting at all, 5* weak foot is also insane. His physical is not that bad, originally I thought it's a dealbreaker since I got used to nunez, however then I realized he can still take away the ball and sometimes shrug off defenders despite only 82 (now 83 since upgraded) strength and *only* 62 aggression. Despite his height and jumping he pretty much scored 0 headers, I suppose due to low aggression, making him unable to win a lot of aerial duels. Doesn't really matter considering how good his shooting is. Despite having advanced forward ++, I used him on poacher in a 4231 and it proved to be a great decision as he started making a lot more runs between defenders, so if you have CAMs or wingers who can send good through passes he'll get a lot of 1 on 1 chances. He also can do some good hold up play and provide solid passes to wingers when needed, however that's not his primary role. I guess having a formation with two strikers with him on poacher and the other striker on false 9 would work great as well.
