To against what other people have had, my scout players available have been has been pretty good so far. Two positions that strengthened my team, both 22 years old, both Q54, both 6-7 SP away from 7* and both with, I hope, useful SA's (Corner for the DR/DC and Dribbler for the MR).
Yeah. I had 1 dribbler back in season 2 or 3, but he was a 27yr old (I think), and he wasn't that bad either (7-7-7-6-7). But then again, I played against weaker opposition so I can't say if it depended on that or not. But now when I bought this one, I was quite surprised about his performance. Also, as he was the "best" scout avaible on the scoutlist, I didn't have any choice but to buy him

But I recommend to have a MC playmaker as well. I noticed that the performance of my other players "increases" (especially the MC playing alongside him) and my AML+AMR gets the ball more often and takes more shoots on taget as well.

Going back to your Dribbler being 'mediocre', I still think people underestimate the usefulness of the Corner Taker SA, as I have scored a fair few goals from corners because of this[/COLOR].
Yes, perhaps. I have a couple of Corner spec. in my squad and my no.1 choice is my ST (Mandžukić). He was my best assist last season and yesterday he managed to score a couple of times and assist as well. Then he was declared as the MoM in both games. So yeah, the corner taker SA isn't that bad ... The only SA I find "useless" is the Free-kick spec. Don't know why, but they seem to miss 2 of 3 times. That's why I put my best ST (Jovetić) with the "one-on-one" ability to take them and he scores 2 of 3 times, so I can't complain

But also, it could depend from case to case. It could be "randomness" as well since every manager experiencing different from player to player.
