Default PA, How realistic is it?

Just a thought about the players PA.
In my current game the following players have a PA greater than 190 and CA greater than 185
Messi: 198
Ronaldo: 195
Kaka: 195
Ronaldinho: 197
Eto: 191
Henry: 196
Buffon: 193
Casillas: 191
Bearing in mind that the highest PA you can get is 200 then these players are the best in the world at the moment, which I believe is true.
But out of curiosity what would the footballing greats PA be in comparison?
Diego Maradona
Ronaldo
Pele
Gordon Banks
Bobby Charlton
Michel Platini
Franz Beckenbauer
Gerd Muller
Dino Zoff
Marco van Basten
Johan Cruyff
George Best
Eusebio
Paolo Rossi
Puskas
All these past great players are imo better than the current World Beaters which beggers the question is PA over inflated?

Anyone can have a high PA. Doesn't necessarily mean they'll reach that level.

If you read the post these players also have a CA greater than 180, Messi for instance has 191.

And no not anyone can have a PA greater than 190.

Lol, Dixie Dean is a legend yes, but if I were to list all the greats i'd be still typing.
I just gave some of the obvious ones as an example.

Who cares what the PAs of players from a different era would be? It's impossible to compare players across loads of eras and even if they were miles better in those days what would be the point of never having a player with a PA over 170 just because that might iply he was better than some guy from years back?

PA is not definite, it's relative. So if Pele came in, maybe he would 199 and Messi would have 185.
