Unpopular opinion? Not that hyped about Vardy
Things Zaha is much higher rated in compared to Vardy
Agility
Ball control
Dribbling
Long shots (tiny amount)
Strength
Passing
5* skills
Vardy to me looks like he'd be very stiff on the ball, no skills, no agility, no dribbling, great for a counter if you play 1 depth/drop back and just need someone to chase a ball down, but subbing him on against someone who is winning and keeping everyone back feels like he wouldn't be as effective as Zaha at making an opportunity for himself or someone else.
He's not really viable SBC fodder either, 86's atm go for 10-11k, no packs from the SBC.
Is the hype just for people who want to have a pacebot to partner with Rashford or people who didn't get or don't like Zaha?

It's basically a SIF Vardy. Would at least go for 70k plus on the market. Costed me 5k so that's a no Brainer.

It's a free 86 rated card, plus he's actually usable as a super suh

Why the post?
You don’t have to be hyped about every POTM, don’t like him don’t buy him.
@Stevo_CT
Mainly cause I just see a flood of hype/appreciation, and wasn't sure if I was the only one that felt this way
I don't know if the forum would be more active if everyone got a free icon pack
The appreciation threads will all be replaced by hatred threads during WL!
I got him and probably won’t even use him.

Applied Hunter
99 sprint 99 acceleration
95 positioning 94 finishing 99 shot power
Go and find a comparable striker (even after hunter) and see how much it cost
@OZero
Yes, he is very fast and good at shooting the ball in a straight line with power.
But look at the points I made in the first post.
Like do people just ignore facts in front of them or something, I don't get it

Relative to the rest of the forum.
It feels like people are acting as if Prime Eusebio has dropped for 20k

Waste of a hunter card. Would be better with marksman or sniper for the dribbling boost

Yeah I think a lot of people are getting sucked into doing it when they have no need for him and probably won't end up using him that much
Won't be in my main Bundes/LaLiga team but now I have a first owner meta PL striker I can use for objectives etc or to throw on as a pacey sub. Not being sucked in at all, just common sense given the price

First owner ST for objectives.
If you did it right away, he was 20k...and he’s an EPL 86 rated card anyway...

Exactly this. People whining about the card being trash. It’s an 86 rated, somewhat meta EPL striker for 20k. It’s not like you have to break to bank to get this guy.
