PA = potential ability
CA = current ability

CA and PA at its minimum is 0 and maximum is 200. CA obviously cannot exceed PA, the maximum it can get is up to PA. PA is fixed and does not vary no matter how much you train the player.

where -10 and minuses come in the picture, it means that the ability of the player can vary. it is not a fixed number like 190. it could vary depending on the youth academies and the manner how you bring up the player and train the player.

I don't know about the number range for -10 and such.

For the positive numbers, if Robinho is 180 then I can't see why 5 star players aren't 180 and above. I heard it also depends on your club. If your club is a small underachieving club, your scouts will view a PA 120 as world class. However, at big clubs this is mediocre.

157 for CA isn't too bad actually

I would have them for my Ajax team hehe

In all honesty, I prefer PA attributes than CA. I like seeing my youngsters progress to be big stars and only have them to be sold off to big teams and spread word about how good my youth team and training is at Ajax. It's like a brand. If I can win the champions league with a bunch of youngsters from my youth team I'll be extremely happy.

That's just me

Go on play your game
