Super Striker Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Anyone experience this? I have a striker with 8 assists in 9 appearances with an Avg. Rating of 7.84, albeit with no goals. However, he's attributes would suggest he's not in the least bit creative, with 6 for creativity and no particularly outstanding technical ones apart from dribbling. But when he steps on the pitch he turns into Dennis Bergkamp, pulling the strings left, right and centre, dropping deep and ripping open defences with cutting through balls. He doesn't have any PPMs that would influence him to play like this either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Yep, happens a fair bit. Its a mix of making best use of the skills he has and a few hidden attributes that are probably quite high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoham Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Is he physically good, ie strong, quick and good in the air? Players like that can use their physique to get more chances to create chances, if you know what I mean. Creativity is purely vision to see a good pass, so players don't necessarily need it to control a game, especially at the lower levels. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jirki88 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Either-footed or one-footed? That usually plays a big part. What's his Flair? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Müller1469564937 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 What, like when Cannavaro who has a pace attribute of 7 can run equally as fast, if not, faster than Messi who has a pace of 18? Yeah, it's a bit strange. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekker2 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 Wow, we made it almost five posts before a whiny arse came on here to bitch. Well done Muller. With the right stats in a few places, players will often perform better than expected - hidden ones like "important matches" can be crucial. Also, oft overlooked stats like "teamwork" can sometimes create some very tidy players if they're high enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's a bit strange. Over what sort of distance? Who had the ball? Were they competing or was one clear of the other? What was the condition of the players? What was their morale? Its not as simple as saying Messi's pace is higher. Personally I have a quick winger and when he takes on fullbacks its noticeable which are the slower ones.

Aww, little Leo is sad so he won't be able to run fast anymore That's just hillarious! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Müller1469564937 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I'm pretty sure I read on here that someone couldn't comprehend how Sean Wright Philips was heading the ball like Gabriel Batistuta, so yes, I believe that players sometimes do out play their attributes. I wasn't really complaining though. It's just something I've noticed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedaye Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 some times its about the space and runs another player makes rather then the creative ability of those they play with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMOZZA Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 With regards to the OP's point, if a player takes a shot and it's saved and another player scores the rebound, I think the game recognises it as an assist, does it not? That may be a plausible explanation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
