Player Attributes

Can anyone tell me if the players attributes, such as crossing, corners etc. are relative to the leagues you are in. For example I am playing as Rossendale Utd in the Northern Premier League and I am looking for a strong defensive central midfielder, if I was looking at a player with the relevant key attributes of 7+ would they be considered top class for that level or would they need to be higher ?

I seem to remember there being a general guide somewhere for previous versions but haven't found anything for 2010. I realise this would just be a "Rule of Thumb" guide and there is more to a player than just what is initially showing. I am trying to use my scouts as much as possible to judge players rather than relying on using the search function.

Any help would be great.

No the values are absolute from what I can tell.

Check out the sticky threads at the top of the Good Players and Teams forum where there is a mine of useful info like this.

Cool, thanks I'll have a look in the Good players forum then.

Cheers

Values are absolute. 20 is the best in the world, not the best in the league. Very few (if any) lower league players will have 20 for crossing or corners, but one could have 20 for bravery or aggression, or flair.

Thats not what his asking his asking if 7+ for say finishing in what would be a bottom tier league, would be considered above or below average for that league.

In lower leagues, I try not to have most stats below 10. If I can't get that, say, there are no defenders with 10s for marking, tackling and positioning (not all the necessaries I know, but for simplicities sake) I will try to find someone with 10,10,9, or something to that effect.

Way to miss the point

It's relative depending on how 'lower league' you go. I'm managing at a level where league reputation is 1, and no one has anywhere near 10 in technical attributes. 5 is good.

The way to find out is to look at squad screens of teams in the division in question. Look at a club the media predict to win that league, and one predicted to be midtable to get a feel of what's normal at that level.

Cheers for the answers, looks like some Tuesday night scouting missions to Prescot Cables, Clitheroe and Radcliffe Borough for me then !!! Love It !
