Benteke vs Lukaku - Before and After

This is a review comparing Benteke and Lukaku and their upgraded cards as requested by Willian.

Willian wrote:can someone review upgraded benteke and lukaku and non upgraded benteke and lukaku (to compare the difference)

As you probably already know, both of these guys are absolutely beast and two of the best players on the game because they are so OP. They both have decent pace, amazing heading, ridiculous strength and good finishing, but which is the better card, before and after their upgrades?

The Team I Used

How They Performed



Conclusion

Benteke- 9/10 > 9/10
He is so strong on the ball, at full speed no one can tackle him and even if they somehow do, he muscles them back off the ball. He has decent finishing and is really good in the air. He always seems to be in the right place when you need him to be and got me a load of goals as you can see above. He doesn't really have any major weaknesses but the only thing is that he can be quite slow compared to some other players. I did not notice anything really that was different in his upgraded card, he has similar finishing, strength and heading although he does seem a tiny bit quicker and more agile. I don't think there is any point spending an extra 5 or 6k on him though as it doesn't make that much difference.

Lukaku- 8/10 > 9.5/10
His regular card is very good already and he is pretty similar to Benteke except his shooting and heading are slightly worse. However, he is slightly faster. He did not do too well for me using his regular card but his upgraded card is amazing. His shooting is so much better and his positioning is a lot better than his regular card. I definitely recommend you go and buy his upgraded card as it is so much better and it only cost me 850 coins - the same as his regular card!

These two are really good as a pair but I recommend putting someone pacy like Daniel Sturridge as CAM just to give your attack that extra pace that they sometimes lack. But other than that, hopefully this review has been useful (it better be after all that time I spent on it  ). I am adding a video of the goals tomorrow.

Nice review. I'll probably give them a try at some point. I was going to try Benteke today but I can't search for him on the market I've moved this into the Player Reviews section and added 25k SF Points.

The only thing to fix is the image of the table, maybe make a bit smaller because the last column is cut off.

Very nice review!

thanks, only one problem with the image, it has disappeared on my computer and i have forgotten what was in it! i know that ug lukaku had 6 goals, 1 assist and 2 motms but cannot remember the others. it was improved on the normal card though
