Do goalkeepers need concentration? In real life, people like Cech are praised for their concentration when their team is dominating because they are often out of the game for long periods and only called into action when it matters.

My scout has recommended a young Danish goalkeeper, who has average (12's) technical (but reflexes at 18) and excellent mental and physical attributes. But his concentration is only 5, yet the scout doesn't seem to list this in his weaknesses.

Something to be concerned about, or am I worried about nothing?

i dont think it matters i had a keeper (a regen)
concentration 5 but always getting 8's and got 16 clean sheets in 20 games (4 conceded!!!!!!!)

if it dont matter then i think si needs to take it into consideration as being able to concentrate is crucial for any gk, if not considered the most important stat.

By not concentrating they could be dancing about in the centre-circle. A course they need it!

In real life it's a must (keeper's can only be so good without it - Barthez and Dudek being prime examples), but it seems for whatever reason SI haven't taken it into consideration.
