dont select any other file alongside mine - my update itself has United in no european competition
 
Diego Costa his finishing is 16? In patch 14,3 is 17? He deserve at last 18
I think he is one the best strikers in world football now and deserve more than 16 in your finishing atribute,

Riquelme is now in Argentino Juniors

Nilmar is free agent

Balotelli PA is too lower, he have a lot potencial, you could improve his ca and pa and decrease his work rate, team work, temperament, professionalism,

rooney ca pa is lower than you really deserve

Zlatan Ibrahimovic needs improvement, dribling 18, finishing 19 technical 19

alexandre pato needs ca pa improvement, his football is improving since he is coming to São Paulo

Ganso (São Paulo) needes improvement in his Ca PA, very talented player, will be the future 10 in Brazil, improvement in his passing and technique, 19 for both,

Miranda ( Atletico de Madrid) needs improvement, your last season was amazing,

Gareth Bale accelerationg and pace needs improvement, he is one of the fast players in the world

fred ( fluminense) deserves finishing 17, your problem is work rate, determination, team work, your finishing is good.

Some stats in the last update had changes because the world cup. but we all know the world cup some time over or under rate some players, and this is not the reallity some times

will take a look at your suggestions

although no major changes were made because of the World cup - tournament football such as that doesnt tell you much about a player

No. 18+ finishing is for freak shooters like Ibrahimovic & David Villa. Costa scores most of his goals from easy positions because of smart off the ball movement & power. His finishing inside the box isn't anywhere near as good as the best finishers in the world.

First of all thanks for your work !

I have only one question do I have to start another game if put your last update ? I took your update the 20th of August 2014.
 
Costa is beast and also in the game right now. Scoring a lot. Let his finishing be like that, it can be trained even now for higher. If u change it to 18 he would be god like, he is not that perfect.

For Balotelli I would like to see his PA increase, also CA because he is not that bad. In years I have told that he will be the best striker in coming years just needs good coach and teammates. I think Rodgers can make him very good and for Liverpool teamplay is the most important thing so I hope to see him changing. Also Gerrard as captain will be good mentor for him. Lets see what he does in the coming weeks and maybe u can even increase his professionalism, work rate and team work for the last updates.

No. What has he done to warrant an upgrade, particularly in Professionalism? Just because you think he'll be good this season doesn't mean he deserves an upgrade; playing alongside Gerrard doesn't reinforce that notion either.

You could argue 14 goals in 30 Serie A appearances last season warrants a higher CA value than 156, but his Professionalism is fine as it is.

Tha ca is way to high considering that that is his highest goal tally in a poorer league. Edin Dzeko an Olivier Giroud have had higher goal tallies in the premier league and the have lower pas. Balotelli warrants a general downgrade if anything as 160 pa is world class. Diego Cota aint a 18 finisher. He is 15-6 finisher that shoots with power and places shots. Serie a is pas it tbh and if he was world class then why did City and Milan take losses?

yes, you have to start a new game each update released

Balotelli does not warrant a PA downgrade - the talent is always there, its if he reach his potential - His CA was reduced months ago to show this, it was above 160 CA before

Milan was slightly different as financial implications were the main reason, City had better strikers and he became dis-interested... it's all about managing Balotelli correctly and it will be interesting to see if Rodgers can

Balotelli is clearly a better player than Giroud (maybe not Dzeko) but is bogged down by poor professionalism & concentration and it really shows in-game (in FM13 anyway).

I think he's stats are accurate in the current update & shouldn't be touched.

I wanted to say that Sturridge must have a higher pa than Balotelli with his 20 league goals. Balotellis best 14 doesn't come even close especially considering he played in Italy. Even Lukaku (who I regret calling overpriced after his West Brom scoring record) had scored 17 league goals for a bottom half team compared to Balotellis best of 14 in Italy. He isn't young anymore and 24 years old. Angel Di Maria needs his finishing and long shots toned down. Ozil managed more league goals and played 9 less games in a harder league plus he never has had a decent goal tally. Rooney should have a higher pa than Di Maria for outperforming him for the past 7 seasons in the prem. Rooney had way more goals /assists per game than Di Maria for a struggling United.

Alot of things you compare is hard to compare realistically - yes, if you look at the stats these things may be true on paper

But Rooney was the main man, Ozil not far behind Ronaldo, Di Maria however was always 3rd fiddle at least at Real Madrid potentially hindering what he may have done

for now, all those players are staying as they are

I think he's stats are accurate at the moment & shouldn't be touched.

Apart from the odd screamer Balotelli has done nothing to justify being better than the 2 plus Giroud is much more technically gifted than Dzeko and play different roles. Dzeko is a poacher and Giroud plays much deeper.
