Some players require a difference balance of attributes after gaining a new role, like when I train a D to be a wingback, I give him more offense points, etc.
Ok maybe I've only trained a handful and that doesnt represent the whole picture.

Anyway, I'm planning to train one of my 20 year old MCs into a DMC since he seems to get back often to block shots. Hopefully it'll work out
