PLEASE let us Add, Edit & Delete Playstyles & Playstyle+'s on Career Mode

On Career Mode, real life youth talents like Archie Gray, Cubarsi, Pavlovic, Bergvall and Yildiz will never get more playstyles.

I feel like an 85 rated player should have minimum 3 playstyles to help them feel unique and they should be granted based on attribute rating and roles. If I develop Archie Gray into a world class wingback, he should develop jockey, whipped cross, or other relevant playstyles.

It feels ridiculous you can develop one of these players to be 90 overall and they’ll just be a blank slate with stats.

Not to mention I keep getting 5'7 Wingers with "Aerial" and "Power Header" as their main Playstyle's it just isn't realistic or the CB with no defending Playstyles but they somehow have "Chip Shot" and "Dead Ball" please let us add, edit and remove Playstyles in order to make the game more immersive, it's also unrealistic for a high potential player to not have any Playstyles at all. 

Real players upgrade one PS to PS+ when they reach 90 OVR (which is a ridiculously high threshold). Youth players get similar upgrades at both 80 and 90; (there's an exploit where you can pretty much add whichever PS+ you want, but that isn't by design).

EA really needs to do something with development to let us add playstyles. I'd be in favour of something related to in game performance, like FUT Evos. - The most basic things like scoring so many Finesse Shots giving the corresponding playstyle etc.

Playstyles are the biggest upgrade the game has ever had in terms of making players feel unique - If they were properly integrated into career mode, the customisation options would be huge. The current lazy implementation is such an absolute waste of what really could be a great feature for Career Mode.

I like the idea of it being milestone based. If you win 400 headers - get Aerial. If you score or assist 20 free kicks - dead ball.

    Perfect comment!

    I would add to your claim, the wish to be able to change the players position in the field (like use a 4-4-2 with a CDM, CM, CAM and RM, for example). Also, would be lovely to be able to change the positions of a player in his development a little faster and be able, in the tactical formations, to use a CB as a Sweeper/Libero. The distinction between CF and ST could be very useful too, independent of the fact that I'm able to use the roles of a Target Forward, Advanced Forward, etc.

    Be able to develop the playstyles in their training would be amazing!

    I'm sure that the Career Mode has a lot of fans and that these changes would improve the experience a lot! I'm saying changes because some of the adjustments we're asking in this forum were present in other editions of Fifa/EAFC games.

    Not everyone wants to play Ultimate Team. It might be too arcade for some users.

    You can already change their position in the field. Making defenders out of midfielders shouldn't really be an option. There has to be some distinction. It's true that playstyles are WAY too static in career. I've heard that they can develop gold playstyles but have yet to see that happen.
