I have won the treble!!!! Treble Winners post here. ^^

After reading around the forum, I think SP is a lot better than people give credit for. Wondered if that was changed up or if it were always like this.

The reason was I played against a bot team with half my rating and drew with them because their gk played a blinder against me. He had a one to one speciality and after that game I straight away went out and got myself a one on one SP GK. He was the reason we won the cup.

The FK ability has always been the best it seems going by what others on the forum has been writing. One should also take into account that my FK taker was a low 6 star one but in regards to offensive and mental skills he was closer to 9. Not sure anything has changed though.

def 69
att 89
men 89

SA at least how I use them is to give players an edge in positions where I want maxed skills. Defenders and attacking players like ST and AMC*. They seem more wasted on well rounded player types. Most others seem to like well rounded players more.

Only played 12 seasons though but it seems to work with me in the last two seasons since I have done the trebble twice by applying this.

I always try players out for a few games to see their ratings before I invest any effort in them and giving them an SAs. Most of the time I buy them from auction house ready or from the scout though. SAs where feet are important I always go for "either" footed ones. A right footed FK for example to me is just a waste.

In the cup SAs are a must in my opinion since I'm always up against higher level players and since SAs dont count when you are paired up by QL it's the only way for me to stand a chance. This season none of my starters were without an SA. Going by MOM awards my well rounded players have never won them "CMs" and they both have dribbling SAs but lots of players around them gets red carded for fouling them. =)
