Man, let me tell you about my recent dive into the world of FIFA cards, specifically about creating a custom card for Erling Haaland. It all started when I was just messing around, you know, killing some time, and I thought, “Why not give this a shot?”
So, first off, I had to grab some basic info on Haaland. This guy’s a beast on the field, playing as a striker for Manchester City and the Norway national team. Born in 2000, he’s already making waves. I dug around the web a bit to get a feel for his stats and achievements.

Then I started playing FIFA 23. I mean, how else could I really understand what makes Haaland tick in the game? I noticed he’s got an 88-rated striker card in there, which is pretty solid. This gave me a good baseline to work with. I tried to simulate some matches, paying close attention to how he moves, shoots, and interacts with other players.
Next up, I decided to look into some of his real-world stats. I found out he’s been smashing it, scoring goals left and right. In the 2022-23 season, he even helped Man City clinch the Treble. And get this, he’s been nominated for The Best FIFA Men’s Player award. I thought, “This guy’s not just good in the game, he’s a legend in the making!”
With all this info, I began to sketch out what my custom card would look like. I wanted it to really reflect his prowess. I toyed with the idea of boosting his speed stat, considering I read somewhere that he’s still behind Micky van de Ven in terms of top speed, but hey, he’s a goal machine, so I focused on that. I even compared his goal tally with Salah’s in the Premier League, just to get a sense of his dominance.
Finally, I put it all together. I didn’t actually create a physical card or anything, it was more of a fun exercise in my head. But I imagined a card that truly captured Haaland’s essence as a player. His striking ability, his knack for being in the right place at the right time, and his sheer presence on the field.
The Final Whistle
So, there you have it. My little adventure into creating a Haaland FIFA card. It was a blast, mixing a bit of gaming with some real-world football stats. And who knows, maybe one day EA Sports will take a page out of my book. A guy can dream, right?
