Showdown Series is not limited to Showdown objects. It seems like it focuses on different football matches and rivalries, that’s why Some cards are back in FIFA 23 packs and for this reason, two SBC icons have arrived today. Because Didier Drogba is a Chelsea legend and Gary Lineker is a Tottenham legend. (to represent this weekend’s game).
Squad building challenges for these former players will not expire in Ultimate Team until May 25. And both are available in their respective World Cup versions (which we can also sign as transferable on the market).
Didier drogba
Gary Lineker
I think the idea of releasing several Icons at the same time to refer to real football matches is interesting, but the letters do not attract our attention. Because if Didier Drogba has four stars in technique and five in foot pain, his dribbling is very unbalanced and he is a fairly tall footballer.
The logical thing is that the Chelsea legend be rough in the game, for stats and for its size (he measures 1’89). Apart from the fact that 87 in sprint is improvable (he will only reach 95 with Cazador) and that his pass numbers are vulgar (79 in vision, 77 in short passes and 66 in long passes).
Unless you want to use the Drogba World Cup icon because you’re a fan of the footballer himself, we do not recommend that you complete your SBC. Whereas Gary Lineker is much cheaper and a lot of his stats are good. But we don’t think it’s a great option either, because in this time of FIFA 23 we can get even more complete maps for cheap.
If your Ultimate Team budget is very limited, we wouldn’t spend any of it on the England legend. And if you have a good amount of untradeable coins or socks, we will get even more competitive attackers. That’s why we don’t find it interesting. We’d be looking for someone more decent as an assistant (he barely has 71 years of vision) and with superior dribbling stats.
As almost always happens when this type of Icon SBC arrives in FIFA 23, you can try them on loan for five matches through more affordable team building challenges. Drogba’s asks to sacrifice a golden eleven, four must be unique and one from Chelsea. While Neville only requires ten bronze medals (including at least one from England).
