ROMELU LUKAKU UTOTS REVIEW!

Romelu Lukaku finished his second season at Italy, with 34 goals and 10 assists in 44 games. With that amazing haul, comes a besatly UTOTS card for us FIFA Mobile fans to enjoy! His card is one of the 4 of the highest rated UTOTS Reserves, amongst the likes of Erling Haaland, Harry Kane and Casemiro. He is currently the costliest out of the four and dare I say, the best. I played him at 100+13 at his preferred ST position. One of the things that make him the best is his boost: Second Striker. Easily the best boost in-game, it increases his Positioning, Finishing, Sprint Speed, Agility and Dribbling. These stats, combined with his in-game figure and gameplay, make him one of the best Strikers available free-to-play. KEY STATS:

1) SHOOTING: At base, he has 136 shot power, which puts him at joint-third highest for non-Prime Icon cards (all compared at 100 OVR). Combine that with 140 Finishing and Positioning, and he is unstoppable. Almost every shot from his is a tracer bullet, and keepers will find a very hard time stopping his shots. 2) PACE: For a bulky guy like Lukaku, his pace is very good. 113 Acceleration and 131 Sprint Speed make him very quick, and easy to pace past most of the CBs in-game. Thing to note is that he also has the Speed Dribbler trait, which means he flicks the ball in front, and sprints quick to get it, so as to cover a large area in a short time, and lose the defender at the same time. 3) AGILITY: Mandem got 125 Agility, boss! A well-timed roulette and he can swig past any defender in-game and put the ball in the back of the net. His secondary skill move is Heel to Heel, which is not the best in itself, but it's decent for Lukaku. Don't expect him to be doing Cryuff Turns though! 4) PHYSIQUE (HEADING): Lukaku is 6'3" (191 cm) and weighs 207 lbs (94 kg). He has 121 Physical and 128 Heading stats. Combine that with the Power Header trait (the best trait in-game hands down) and he is essentially a machine! Awesome headers, pushes up for corners and very good jumping as well. 5) PASSING: An undermined stat for a Striker, Passing is perhaps Lukaku's best area of performance. I play a 3-4-1-2 formation, and Lukaku often runs up in the wing in VSA/LvL chances. His crosses are pin-point and his Short Passing is very decent as well. Playing him at a 2-Striker formation is best for him.

DISADVANTAGES:

Sometimes, he may not jump high enough, as to head the ball in. He gets dunked by many premium CBs (Prime Icon Hierro, UTOTS De Vrij) but that's not to worry much. Another con is that he's top-heavy, meaning his recovery rate after a fall is slow, leading to slow positioning. SUMMARY:

I fell in love with this card the instant I claimed it and put it in my team. Awesome game-play, amazing stats and all of the good stuff! Lovely card all-in-all. He gets a solid 9/10 from me!
