Just some questions to help me understand

1. Does a player who has a second position as accomplished (15/20) play with 75% of his CA?

2. Do the stars in the scout report rate the player's PA? Or the player's PA compared to your average squad PA?

3. Is the player-recommendation of your assistant manager based on CA or on actual skills?

More still to come but enough for now.

Thanks!

I can answer 2 and 3

2. Average squad PA , and what you stated as expectation of the season to your chairman at the start of the season

3. Based on CA

2. The scouts don't know the PA of the player. They judge the player on how well he's preformed in other matches and his atribbutes. The star ratings are compared with the rest of your squad (Beckford would have a 2 star rating in a EPL team but a 6 star rating in a L1 team).

3. It's based on player attributes and how the player has preformed

I think i'll delete mine then!

Regarding your first question, we don't know for sure - SI never give that much away about how the match engine works. I would hazard a guess that it's kind of a percentage system, but it's in no way that simple. It probably affects certain attributes more than others (i.e. pace, strength, stamina etc are unaffected, whereas positioning and off the ball are probably most affected).

Dan-Toom-Army, I think you're the right one. I've always thought staff in the game use CA and PA to judge.
