So I don't really do reviews on players but for Ian Rush, I'm making an exception! First of all I will let you know the team I ran around this card. I start in the 4-3-3 with Bale and Hazard at RW and LW, De Jong, Vidal and Modric in the midfield, and my defense was Alba, Ramos, Scream Pique, and Carvajal with Oblak in goal. Now, onto the card, and I have to say I was so presently surprised while using this card! The first three games I played with this card I got 3 hat tricks, with two of the teams I played against being the classic garbage meta squads you see everyone using (Dembele, Rashford, Militao, etc.) Even against teams where the EA handicap was bad, Rush still performed like a god! The one thing that I noticed the most about this card were the runs he made! Normally when players make their attacking runs in this game they run right next to the CB's and when you do try to pass to them the ball is instantly intercepted. This is not the case with Rush! I always noticed him finding that open space where he maintains a good amount of distance from the defenders but is making an excellent run at goal! Now onto his shooting, and I swear this card can finish everything! Long shots, finesse shots, headers, volleys, EVERYTHING! But what really makes his shot so deadly is the shot power. This man has a canon for a leg! The only downsides to this card are his dribbling abilities and his not too great pace. I threw a hunter on my rush so his pace was doable, but I know for some the 3 star skill moves is a massive deal breaker. In the end I give this card a 10/10, as I truly had a blast using him! If you can pick him up, give him a try!
I decided to try him because I was not satisfied with none of the attackers I had tried this year. I am an average player (Gold 1 in Wl, Div 4 in Rivals), playing 4-4-2(2), and for me, this guy has been f**king CRAZY. I tried him with Hunter, just like everyone else, and I have to say his pace was sooo good, but there was no chance against some fast CBs and fullbacks. His biggest con, however, was agility. He sometimes seemed too clunky on the ball, expecially in the area, so I decided to give him Sniper. No idea how good he was going to become. Paired with a fast ST, the duo become unstoppable. Everytime he touched a ball, back of the net. Agility, fast in short dribbling, finesse, outside foot, strenght, composure, this guy have everything to be a perfect striker for this price. 239 matches, 231 goals, 122 assists. Numbers talks by themselves. He's NOT the player for those who likes runs across the fields in counterattacks, but if you are capable of build a scheme, this guy will be a god for his price. Can't wait to try his Prime version.
So i've played Rush for about 60 games as a Striker in the 4-2-2-2 and 4-2-3-1.
He picked himself up 48 goals and 22 assists, which is pretty solid.
Nevertheless, i wouldn't recommend buying this card.
Most of the time, I used Engine on him because I didn't feel like his shooting needed any boost. I have tried different chem styles though (Marksman, Sniper, Hawk, Deadeye).
Pace 5/10
He is very slow. Those 83 Pace (88 with chem style) felt like 70, he couldn't really outpace any defender.
Shooting 9.5/10
His shots were deadly. Inside and outside the box, finesse or low driven, whatever you want. He will score you goals.
I have to admit that his high composure makes him clinical as well. He barely chokes.
His weak foot felt alright, i didn't notice any issues with it.
Passing 3/10
Very disappointing. When I saw his bad passing stats, I did not expect him to be that bad at passing. His short passing isn't too bad, but you just can't cross or play through balls with him.
Dribbling 6.5/10
As mentioned before, his agility and balance are bad. He sometimes feels clunky and turns slowly.
His ball control felt alright, but didn't really help at all. The 3* skill moves really limit his dribbling abilities, too.
Defending -/-
Physicality 6/10
He is quiet tall. That's why I expected him to be strong and win headers. However, I was quiet disappointed with that as well.
His stamina was good enough for a striker. I wouldn't use him anywhere else though (due to his passing as well)
All in all, I sold him after a week. It was fun using him, don't get me wrong. He looks very funny ingame and I really believe that he can be fun to play with. But he isn't useable in any competitive game.
great shooting
finesse shots (trait)
icon -> links to everyone, good link into Bale
a bit too slow
does not feel too agile or strong. Both stats aren't the best
