There are very few players that can boast a career as Iconic as this England and Manchester United talisman.
Being on the cover of FIFA from FIFA 06 to FIFA 12 for his legendary performances, Wayne Rooney has his Cover Stars Icon SBC available in FIFA Ultimate Team now!
The Everton youngster’s SBC is very expensive, coming in at a price of 1.1M coins and needs 13 segments to unlock his card.
He has some absolutely cracked stats and characteristics such as:
- 97 Acceleration and 95 Sprint Speed with his Controlled AcceleRATE type will make him very quick over distances
- Near max shooting stats with 95 Finishing, 97 Volleys, 98 Positioning, Long Shots and Penalties and 99 Shot Power with the Outside Foot Shot Trait making him lethal at every range and shot type possible
- For a Striker his Passing and overall Ball Distribution is impeccable with 90+ in all stats except his 87 Crossing
- High tier dribbling for a Striker with 94 Ball Control and Dribbling, 95 Balance and Reactions, 96 Agility and 97 Composure with his Stocky body type will make him move very well both on and off the ball
- 91 Jumping with his 5’9 Height and 86 Heading Accuracy will make him decent in the air
- 93 Stamina means he won’t need to be substituted for 85+ minutes
- 99 Strength and Aggression will make him win most physical duels and 50/50’s
- 5-Star Skill Moves and Weak Foot give him all the tools he needs to be a fully meta attacker
- High/Medium workrates are perfect for an attacker
His ideal position in game would be as an attacking CM in 4-3-2-1 or a central CAM in a 4-2-3-1. His high passing and elite physicality along with quick pace makes him perfect for a midfielder who can provide a strong body, recover the ball and then carry it forward.
He has a similar player profile to that of FUTTIES Antoine Griezmann. These 2 are examples of cards in FIFA 23 that embody a complete attacker. They can play centrally, wide, as the prime target man or behind the striker. Their utility is unmatched on the field.
The card has virtually no drawbacks to speak of which is exactly what we want to see at this stage of the game.
