nev147 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Depens on the position, but I would never look at one attribute in isolation. But as the OP asks then determination, as it is not applicable to one position but all! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArsenalFan7 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Strikers - Finishing and Composure Wingers - Crossing and Pace Midfielders - Passing, Creativity Full Backs - Pace, Stamina, Positioning, Tackling Defenders - Marking, Tackling, Positioning Goalkeepers - One on Ones, Reflexes, Aerial Ability Couldn't hugely care less for Determination unless it's below 10 and I suppose I went over the 'first attribute' I look at just a bit...

Clouds Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Strikers: Flair Midfielders: Creativity Defenders: Acceleration (Can't stand those slow huge rocks!) GK: Reflexes Obviously there's other skills that I look for. As an example: IMO flair is a waste for a striker if he's not also a good dribbler and got heaps of agility (Marquinhos on FM09 was a beast! ).

SCIAG Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Strikers: finishing, composure, anticipation, off the ball, and either heading+jumping or pace+acceleration Wingers: Dribbling, crossing, technique, pace, acceleration, anticipation Attacking midfielders: Passing, creativity, technique, long shots, off the ball Defensive midfielders: Tackling, passing, positioning, work rate, marking, concentration Full backs: Crossing, concentration, tackling, marking, positioning, stamina Centre backs: Tackling, marking, positioning, jumping, concentration Goalkeepers: Reflexes, handling, positioning, agility All players: Determination... but only once I've checked their key attributes.

DavidG589 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Determination. I would refuse to sign an outstanding player, even on a free transfer, if he had Ryan Babal-esque determination.

gregt or smokey Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 i agree with most of the above posts. i like a player who is an all round athlete, a team full of players who are fast and strong is a plus, but pace isnt necessary for all positions, look at fabregas, canales, alonso, ok their all centre mids Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heathxxx Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I'll echo determination as the singular "must have" for all my players. Other than that, I don't think you can single out any attributes.

ldktalin Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Value. Well, Determination actually. I try to eliminate any players with sub-standard Determination, Teamwork and Workrate from the team during my first season, unless their quality really stands out. I also find Technique a good and useful all-round attribute to have, even when other technical attributes seem low. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katarian Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 It's normally a physical attribute. Most of the time it is Pace, but I've started looking at Jumping first as I am sick of having a team of midgets. To be honest though the first thing I normally look at is the scouts opinion of their potential ability level (Leading Championship, etc..), then current ability then Strengths and Weaknesses. Then I will look at the player stats if the scout gives a decent report. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleety620 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Determination, Workrate, Teamwork at all levels. With a lower league team, also Stamina and Natural Fitness, 'cos you have to make do with a smaller squad. With higher league teams, also Passing, Pace and Acceleration.

looknohands Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Determination. If it's less than 10 I won't sign the player unless I know for certain that I can match him up with a tutor. As for specific positions... Strikers- dribbling. I expect them to run with the ball and create chances. Midfield- nothing specific. One plays defensively, the other more offensively. Wingers- stamina. No point in signing a talented player if I'm going to have to sub him out every game after 60 minutes. Defenders- jumping. Less than 10 automatically rules a player out from playing as a center back, and I like for my fullbacks to challenge in the air, as well. Goalies- nothing specific.

Sunlock Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 it's always pace. a slow player isn't ever worth bothering with. nearly every other attribute can be offset by other stuff. but pace is non negotaible Not entirely true, a deep playmaker could easily pull it off. However you would want a second midfielder with ball winning as main, kinda worked well for a good amount of time for me, doing just that. I'd say passing, creativity and some healthy mental stats would do you good. Unless you can afford the perfect player. However acceleration and pace seems to work well most of the time, but it all depends on your concept of play. Fast or slow, direct or short passing etc. But in this ME it doesnt really matter all that much, just spray and pray. First of all I would go for as healthy overall stats as possible, then be creative if there are options to get one with better pace, and acceleration.
