He leads the line for Jamaica and West Ham United and on his birthday we have Michail Antonio’s FUT Birthday SBC available in FIFA Ultimate Team now!
The SBC isn’t cheap, coming in at a price of 135.7K coins and can be a little difficult to unlock with 3 segments needed.
FUT Birthday Antonio has a lot of key meta characteristics such as:
- 90 Acceleration and 91 Sprint Speed with his Controlled AcceleRATE type make him very quick to get up and down the pitch
- Top tier Shooting stats with 92 Positioning, 89 Finishing and 89 Shot Power make him a lethal finisher inside the box
- Great Dribbling stats with 86 Agility, 88 Balance, 90 Reactions, 86 Ball Control, 89 Dribbling and 84 Composure with the Flair Trait make sure that he can keep the ball to his feet and make his way through defenders
- Amazing Physicals with 94 Jumping, 91 Strength and 87 Aggression allowing him to bulldoze his way through defences with ease
- 90 Heading Accuracy with his high Jumping and the Power Header Trait despite his 5’10 Height makes him an excellent option for headers
- He has a 4-Star Skill Moves and 5-Star Weak Foot combination making him deadly as a striker inside the box who can execute shots with both feet
- He has High/Medium workrates that are ideal for a Striker
His ideal position in game would be as a single Target Man ST where he is given crosses to head into box with formations such as the 4-3-3, 4-2-2-2 or the 3-5-2. His strong physical presence, 5-Star Weak foot and good shooting abilities make him amazing at getting the ball into the net.
He has a similar player profile to Player Moments Richarlison. They’re both amazing strikers of the ball, 5-Star Weak Foot and they have good aerial abilities as well.
This card has a few drawbacks such as:
- The Stocky body type makes him clunky and difficult to turn with despite his high dribbling stats
- His passing is average and he can’t play well in 2-ST formations
- 84 Stamina isn’t high enough to last a full game so he will need substitution in the 75th minute

FUT Birthday Michail Antonio: Complete or Yeet?
The card is expensive but he plays a very good part as a target man striker, can be crafted over 13 days and doesn't have an alternative available in the market for a similar price which makes the SBC worth it. My verdict: Complete!
