- Agree with the statements of Moi

Confirmed fact 1: The total ability of your team matters.
agree

Confirmed fact 2: It matters if a players has high defensive/physical/offensive abilities. Maybe not on an individual level, but at least on a team level.
agree

Confirmed fact 3: How the ability of a player is divided over the categories Defense, Physical and Offense does matters.
agree .. but how ?
A team with a striker that has Defensive ability: 100; Physical ability: 50; Offensive ability: 50; and a Central Defender that has Defensive ability: 50; Physical ability: 50; Offensive ability 100 will -- perform worse
of course but there isn't such case

Here two examples.
The star-scorer of my team, Ronlado (today, day27),
If we see his stats (I don't know how he got those stats - lol), they 're really weird.
His highest attacking skill is Passing and the highest P&M is Fitness.
Maybe the most useless of all
But he has high q and "talent".

This is a player form a firend.
We are in the same FA group with RINOKEROS (for some period, I played with his team too as he was away for vacations).
Lewandovski bought as recommended player
* he isn't 10*, he is from levels above me.
His skills are almost equal as any newborn player (scouts, recommended, nordgen, academy players) and my friend keeps giving him equal skills.
But also L has q and "talent".

So, I 'm still not sure if adding more relative points/training to players position, makes any difference.
