Player - what is important?

[nash123]

(pls note, my experience founded on five accounts: my wife, her brother, two friends and my own)

1.) Does height have any effects? F.E.: Is a tall defender better at heading than a small one? Same about GK? If you think like this, what do you prefer (tall ones DC, small DL/DR, all of them as tall as possible,...)
I really don't know... I've 3 tall Defenders - performance is completly different. I've 2 areal Defender, one is 196cm, one 178cm. At livegame it's hard to see, which one headed the ball out oft the box.

2.) Does foot matters? Does it have an effect on which side he plays?
I think so - AML is right footed, my AMR is left footed and it worked to shoot some goals. If change them, the score less, but have more assists.

3.) What do you think about age?
Young player level faster - but I also think on my own experience, they are extremly inconsistant. F.E. my Defenders are young 18-21 -> the old one has ~every 5th game bad performance. The 19 y.o. is about two good games, two bad, one good, three bad, three good, one bad,...

4.) If you buy a new player or set one to a postion, do you look at his skills, attributes (height, foot, age,..) and his stats (games played, goals,...)?
I do, but I think skills are the same like height - maybe it's only cosmetic. Look at the following monsters...
Dicher plays AML (he is from the beginnig in that team), Panev plays AMC (bought at the beginning of 2.season)





5.) What skills do you think are important for each role?
Like the Screenshot, I don't think about skills. I try them, if they don't perform, they will be sold.

6.) Do Special abilities depend on player skills? Why?
Same thing: Look at the Screenshots... maybe yes. Maybe Dicher scores much more goals, if shooting is his best skill or he is eitherfooted.

7.) What SA do you think are best for each role/position?
GK: 1on1 Stopper
Defenders: Areal Defender and Defensive Wall
DMC: Playmaker or CK/FK
Midfielder: Playmaker or FK
AMx: Shadow Striker
ST: FK (because all seen ST with FK perform better than 1on1-Striker)

8.) Areal Defender and Defensive wall are best SA for Defenders: where do you set them (DL/DR or DC)?
Usually DL/DR are Defensive Wall, DC are Areal Defender.

9.) If you use new version: Do you train only one player (for powertraining)? Or do you use few players at least?
I just train whole squad or just the subs.
