His ratings are mostly 8's w/ a 7.8/7.9 average. I was thinking the 2* academy player as well, but i'm not sure. His other players are puzzling as well. I submitted a ticket to nordeus to investigate them, in case the players are getting this strong due to hacking.
I would think a 2* academy grad would still have some white stats like passing, dribbling or crossing/heading (depending upon primary position) above 21% when generated.
