1. Work rates
Work rates are one of the most important factor in selecting a forward. There are 3 work rates forms suitable for ST:
High/Low(HL). For HL work rates, the FIFA 15 ST will stay front court attack and counterattack. You should use HL when you choose a 2 ST formation.
Med/Low (ML). This is most used for organized ST. In this situation, ST won’t drawdown when he defend and can control the court better when he cooperates with centre players and usually he should have long shot as well as strong body.
High/Med (HM). Such players mixed the ability of HL and ML, they can attack quickly while they also drawback smoother than HL and ML.
Notice:
you should pay attention that Low/Med, Low/High, Low/Low and Med/High are the least work rates you can apply. Any of them work bad for ST.
2. Shooting
According to different work rates you choose, the shooting ability may differ. For high attack work rates, it requires excellent finishing shooting. While shot power is most important for med attack work rates, low attack work rates, if you really want to use these players, emphasize long shot, which makes them more like CM or CAM.
3. Dribbling
For medium attack work rates, dribbling is the most important aspect for the more chances they have to dribble ball. Ball control, dribbling, and agility are three important attributes for ST. The higher the attributes, the better ball controlling they can perform. Apart from controlling ball, master FIFA 15 skill moves is very essential for strikers too and come very handy when 1V1 confront.
4. Pace
Pace is very significant for ST which could make ordinary ST into real strong monster. It is divided into full pace and acceleration. Full pace works most for medium attack work rates ST while high attack work rates focus on acceleration.
5. Size/ Strength/Heading
Medium attack work rates require strong size and strength to control the ball, unless he is quick and sharp just like Kun.
Size, strength and heading are connected to each other. Players in FIFA 15 with size can grab heading quite easily while even he can jump high like Paul Roberto Falco, he loses chances of heading.
6. Weak foot ability
ST with 4 star or 5 star weak foot ability should play in a formation with one ST because they can shoot at the goal in every direction. While in a formation with 2 forwards, weak foot ability is not that important.
