Rates of the players has a different meaning than I thought in the beginning of the game.
Rates have two meanings for me.
- One, is to rate the try of the players not the effort.
- Two : it's just for my personal use, to see if some player is out of form for a period.
Also I believe that rates are personal for every team and every player of the team
In generals,
I 'm pleased with 6-7 for my GK, for my (good) team. If my GK has continuously 5s, then I 'll start to worry. (or accepting many goals of course).
7 it's ok for my defenders. If any of my defenders has continuously 7s and maybe some 6 I 'll start to worry. So avg 7,__ it’s good.
7 for my DMC it's superb. In generals if a DMC has 6-7 it's super. Avg 6,__ it’s very good.
7 for my MCs it's also very good. My MCs usually have 6-7, sometimes 5 or 8. Avg 6,__ it’s good.
8 for AM & ST it's good. If someone has continuously 7 it's not good. Avg 8,__ it’s good.

Rates of the players of other teams I want to buy, isn't my main criterion.
All those are just personal point of view.
Many players saying that rates are quite random. I don't agree but I don't have many arguments for the opposite
