The man who dazzled the Premier League with his explosive pace and his phenomenal skill, an Arsenal Invincible, a World Cup Winner with France and with FC Barcelona he won the sextuple in 2009. Thierry Henry has his Prime Icon SBC available in FIFA Ultimate Team now!
The star’s SBC is a little expensive, coming in at a price of 306.6K coins and needing 6 segments to unlock the card.
He has some good characteristics such as:
- 94 Acceleration and Sprint Speed with his Controlled AcceleRATE makes him very good in long sprints
- 93 Positioning, 94 Finishing, 88 Shot Power, 87 Long Shots, 90 Volleys and 86 Penalties with the Finesse Shot Trait gives him incredibly lethal finishing capabilities from both inside and outside the box
- 82 Vision, 80 Crossing, 87 Short Passing and 93 Curve lets him play 1-2’s with his teammates in the buildup
- 90 Agility, 90 Reactions, 93 Ball Control, 91 Dribbling and 86 Composure with the Flair Trait gives him good responsiveness on the ball
- 88 Stamina lets him play for 80+ minutes before needing to be substituted
- 4-Star Skill Moves and 4-Star Weak Foot are good enough for a Striker
His ideal position in game is in the middle of a front 3 in a 4-3-3 variant.
He has a similar player profile to FUT Birthday Icon Patrick Kluivert.
He has quite a few drawbacks such as:
- 66 Balance is terrible and will make him very slow to turn especially with his High and Average
- 64 Aggression will make him easy to beat in 50/50’s
- Medium/Medium workrates aren’t good for an attacker
What Chemistry Style to use for Prime Icon Thierry Henry?
The suggested Chemistry Style for Prime Icon Thierry Henry is: ENGINE. The +8 balance helps to cover that weakness Henry has.
Prime Icon Thierry Henry: Complete or Yeet?
I want to justify the cost of this SBC because of the sentimental value attached to him but given the quality of the card, the fact that he’s cheaper on the market and his closest alternative is cheaper as well which means that this SBC is not worth it. My verdict: YEET!
