[[England EFL Championship] Data Issues]

Couple of things regarding Norwich City for me, who I think overall have been spot-on:

Todd Cantwell pace and acceleration seem... really low at 11 each, especially when Pukki has 15/15, and the two regularly keep pace with each other. As well, Grant Hanley has 12 Acc 14 Pace. You're telling me Cantwell is slower than Hanley? Ridiculous.

I also feel like Tim Krul has been massively underrated this year, as he has easily been one of the best shot stoppers in the Championship this season, and probably should be rated at a decent Premier Division level (considering his save numbers last year were excellent despite being in a poor Norwich side).

I want to stress again that on the whole I think the Norwich side is very, very accurate aside from these two.

Not sure about Cantwell, imo he tends to float around the pitch not relying on pace. Hanley is surprisingly quick, just doesn't look like it due to his big build so lacks the initial acceleration. In this interview with Max Aaron he names Hanley as one of the quickest Norwich players, no mention of Cantwell https://youtu.be/LYLrOif0dzw?t=334

Krul I agree with, he keeps getting better with age and his leadership really seems to help our youngsters, also he looks to have established himself as Netherland's second choice, playing in both Nations League games while Cillessen is injured.

Jamal Lewis - seems to have gotten worse since last season.  He is Newcastles 1st choice LB and this should be reflected in the improvements of his technical stats.  Norwich fans were raving about his last season.

As a Norwich fan, I would disagree with this comment. We definitely weren't raving about his performances last season which were poor, he struggled compared to all our other young players and was dropped for Sam Byram, only getting his position back due to an injury.

His FM stats seem fair based upon last season and compared to Max Aarons and Ben Godfrey, who outperformed him.

Quick comment about Adam Idah and Sebastian Soto at Norwich. Not sure if they need their reputation or CA/PA improving but they don't seem to be receiving many international call ups on the game compared to real life.

Since the start of the season, Idah has received 5 caps for Ireland, while Soto has 1 cap and 2 goals for USA (was also called up by Chile but rejected it). However in the game, I've holidayed until the start of 22/23 three times and Idah only collected 3 caps twice, 0 caps the other time. While Soto never earns a cap for USA or Chile, which suggests they're underrated on the game. Idah also seems to start the game in Norwich U23, when irl he's second choice ahead of Hugill.

Hopefully a few tweaks can be made to improve the players to prevent this from happening, as it makes no sense how they finish with fewer caps from 2 full seasons on the game, compared to the past few months irl.

Not a huge issue but it does make the game feel unrealistic while playing.
