[Official] Special Sponsor - FULL-TIME

[Der_Ryan_M]

I also got 25 yo GK at 105% and a 24 yo DC/DL at 124%. I already have a 20 yo 117% GK so I will be getting rid of him, and plan on using the DC for 1-2 seasons probably, depending on his performance.

The disappointing thing is, I used the versatile attacker SA on my ST/AML, then added a second special ability for him. I ended up with corner kick SA, which I already have on my wingers. Plus, I got also corner kick as the first SA for a DC last two seasons, I got lucky and received free kick for another striker, and defensive wall for another DC. This season the “randomness” was not in my favor.

I got lucky this time, for the first time, with my second SA. What a player this could be, I hope he lives up to expectations.

Not bad i would prefer 1on1 finisher. Given the information we have about versatile is player tends to run forward and use spaces in penalty area which should complement 1on1 ability perfectly. Your player will run forward or execute long range shoots from outside of the box ? Very confusing lol.

He can do both, threat in front of goal and if opponent's defense is too good he shoots from distance lol

So coming back to this thread again, my new player with the versatile attacker special ability had an okay first season. He missed the first week of the season, because I didn't train him there, and still managed to put up decent numbers and is my second best goal scorer in the league (of course behind freekick taker)...
However I'm not sure how good this SA really is/was. Will see how he does in the future, generally speaking I'd say, that the set piece specialist SA from the sponsor before was better value.





How did your versatile attackers do in this first full season?

So I'm coming back to this old thread here to give my final review on the versatile attacker SA. The player I gave it to back then was now dropped to the bench after playing close to 500 matches for my club and scoring 373 goals, which translates to about 0.75 goals per game. Regarding assists he was not flashy or anything as well.



Mainly I used him as an AMC, but sometimes also as a 2nd striker, for most of his career alongside Klose. Klose has a goal per game ratio of 0.81 with just the normal SA 1on1 striker and another useless second SA.
(Please note that my best scorers are my AML and AMR, so these 2 were 3rd and 4th scorer in my team respectively)



I didn't notice any special things he does better than other players. Of course it is hard to tell for me as I don't use the 3D animations in the game and play text mode. Overall he was decent, but nothing more.
To conclude I can not really recommend the SA, however due to the lack of useful SAs in the striker department, I could see myself using it again in combination with 1on1 striker on another player playing mainly as ST.
