    I gave both my AML and AMR shadow striker special abilities when i stayed level and I did not see any difference. Same performance, same goal ratio. I also gave my ST One on One SA, no difference. Gave my MC FK SA, you guessed it, no difference now I gave all FK duties to my previous non SA player who continues to regularly score like always.I gave one DC defensive wall SA and another aerial defender, still no difference .Moral of the story good players have hidden abilities, there is no conspiracy behind this. There is no real answer to how and when SA works and I think it is just a waste of packs.

    On the other hand I do believe that players with existing SA have a higher chance of performing to their abilities like my Corner SA scout MC has always been great in that duty.

    I'm to lazy to post all the pics

    Hahaha. I have almost the same feeling you have. Season before I spent a lot of greens training a FK and CK specialists, 1-on-1 striker and... I saw no difference.
    But since I have Wall and Aerial Defender in my defense, I have been rarely conceding goals from FKs and CKs.

    Are you sure you would be able to note, lets say, 10% difference? Keep in mind that you have to compare with the same player but before he has SA.
    I don't think so.
    If you feel or don't feel something, it doesn't matter. Feelings lie.

    We simply don't know what SA do and if they are useful. Stay agnostic in such questions, because believing is stupid.
    It wasn't our day.

    Even agnostics choose to believe in something but that is something for another time.

    They had them for 2 seasons now so of course I can see if there is a difference (and there is not) and compare them with their old one. ST who scored 6 goals all season still has the same goal ratio. All of them are not performing any better than they used to. I expected to see some of this SA to come handy during important matches or even regular ones, but no, the same good old players resolve the situation, if they are having a bad day than the team suffers.

    My theory is simple players with preexisting SA (scouts,recommended,TM) seem to perform up to their task. Players whom I've trained a SA are no different.
    And by the way when we spend packs and time to train players SA a 10% difference is not what we want. what is the point of the training then, I could care less if my AML scored 6 goals and now scored 8.

    Every TE player has limits and after reaching his limits his rating starts to become stable for sometime before he starts to lag in behind ...
    In another words, every TE 18 years old player is like a baby , he grows fast ( from 18-21 ) then growth slows down ( 21-25) then growth almost stops (25-28) then he stars to age and die slowly ( 29-33)...

    Have you ever thought in which phase are your SA players during the assessment ? if they are in phase 2 or 3 or 4 ... don't expect much ...

    I have had young players in my team for many seasons now and at a time even a 22 yo I considered old .My oldest player in my team is my AML/AMC Son and he is 25 and one of the best consistent players I have had, has been since he was 18 and I bought him the day the new transfer was implemented. He is the one I mentioned who is good with free kicks without SA, he scores most of the goals in important matches. Meaning a good player is not easy to spot from the outside or it can't even be created no matter how many packs you waste on him.

    Most players I trained where U20 fast trainers. Some are 20,21 and 22 now.
