Suggestions about some players

There are several players‘ rating, Play-styles, and Roles seems cannot reflect their performance in the real world, someone of them maybe significantly undervalued, some of them maybe evaluate with bias (biased characteristics). I think the players' data now is free from considerations for balance in some modes like UT, and could consider more on authenticity. I have some edit suggestions on several players according to my observations. The data is captured after update on 7th or 8th October {Updated on 22th October}.

J. Gvardiol

    As one of the best young back players, his overall rating and potential, 83/87, are too much underrated. Anyway, I don’t think his rating and potential should be lower than Schlotterbeck, who has 85/88. In my opinion, Gvardiol’s Sprint speed should increase from 79 to around 82, Acceleration 80 to around 84, Agility 68 to around 72, Balance 67 to 71, Standing tackle 84 to around 86, Sliding tackle 84 to around 88, Strength 83 to around 85, Long shots 72 to 76, Weak foot from 4 to 5, finally, Potential from 87 to at least 90.

    About the Playstyles, his Playstyle+ should be “Slide-Tackle+” as his most unique talent, which even not involved in his Playstyles list before. On the other side, Block+ down to Block, if necessary.

    Lastly, his Roles should have Stopper+(CB) as well.

M. van de Ven

    His Agility and Balance should increase for about 10 points in each. His Finishing, Shot power, and Long shots should increase for about 20 points. His Dribbling, Short passing, and Aggression can be increased for 3 points. His Potential should be 88 or 89.

    For his Playstyles, Anticipate and Intercept could be added.

W. Saliba

    I really don’t understand why did you give such a huge decrease on his Balance, his previous Balance which around 55 to 60 is reasonable. His Jumping is actually overrated, down for about 5 points is fair. His Strength and Agility is little bite underrated, could be increased each for 3 to 5 points. His Potential is underrated as well, 91 or even 92 is fair.

    In my opinion, his Playstyle+ should be Intercept+ (not involved again lol), Anticipate+ could downgrade to Anticipate if necessary. Slide-Tackle and Long-Ball-Pass should be added into his Playstyles.

R. Araujo

    His Slide Tackle and movement features are underrated. Slide Tackle could be increased to around 87, Sprint Speed from 86 to 88, Agility from 56 to 60.

    His Playstyle+ should be SlideTackle+ rather than Block+, Block+ could be downgrade to Block. I think Bruiser is also suitable for him, and Acrobatic could be replaced if he already had too many Playstyles.

Lamine Yamal

    Already buffed but still undervalued player. Acceleration shall be increased from 85 to 87, Sprint speed 81 to 83, Agility 87 to at least 90, Dribbling 85 to about 87, Vision 78 to 82, Att. Position 78 to 80, Long shots 80 to 83, Stamina 57 to at least 65.

    Finesse-Shot Playstyle upgrade to Finesse-Shot+; add Incisive-Pass and Trivela.

    His Roles Winger+(LW) should be deducted, replaced by Wide Playmaker+(RW).

Jude Bellingham

    Most of his Ratings are reasonable, it’s fair to just increase his Sprint Speed and Crossing for about 5 to 7 points.

    Incisive-Pass, Leadership, and Trivela need to be added in his Play-styles.

    For his Roles, Playmaker++(CAM) could down to Playmaker+, Shadow Striker+(CAM) up to Shadow Striker++, Box-to-Box+(CM) is more suitable than Half Winger+(CAM).

    Lastly, LM should be his third position.

  • Additional to these good catches I think player rating for Jovan Mijatovic (New York City) is extremly underrated and doesnt reflect his real talent. 

    Even if his start in New York was weaker than expected values like 51/67 are completely unrealistic und should be updated to 63-66 for overall rating and 78-82 for potential. He is more talented than Jovan Milosevic (Stuttgart / St.Gallen) or Julian Rijkhoff (Ajax). But at least he should have a similar rating.
