It's always interesting to see what people's opinions are as to the basics of players to fit their tactics.

My fundamental 5 attributes to even merit a look at have to be pace, acceleration, decisions, teamwork and work rate. I just can't stand having a player at my club that's slow, thick and lazy. As a fan it drives me crazy sitting in the stands, so now it's my turn to be ruthless

Excellent thread yet again by Cleon.

i'm sorry but it depends on how you play and who you have as other players that dictate what stats will make a player successful in your team.

e.g you play a very high line so your defenders need pace a bit more then strength or jumping.

you have smallish CB so you need a big goalie who will come off the line to pick up crosses.

if you don't have big forwards why would you want a crosser of the ball on the wings you'll want someone who can offer through balls and runs in and around the box.

its different for every manager and every team.

what's the best stats for a playmaker again? stuff like creativity and decisions?

evoh_1

for a play maker

decision
creativity
passing
off-the-ball
anticipation
concentration

in that order

I thought Decisions means speed of mind instead of how players choose options... ?

Another doubt about finishing: Finishing is just the technical act or it includes also how to finish. I thought How to Finish was commanded by Flair and Creativity.

Decisions affect how a player decides what passes to play, shots to make, and places to move into

Finishing is a technical ability to indicate how well he puts away chances, flair and creativity are more for midfielders

Decisions is a factor in making a striker a "Clinical Striker" according to the game's description algorithm thing

One of my striker's decisions fluctuates between 14 and 15, and at 14 he is an "Explosive Striker" while with 15 decisions he is a "Clinical striker"

hmmm maybe i'm not clear on 'flair,' but doesn't it also bear on strikers who run with the ball a lot, being able to use tricks and such to beat their man?
