whatsupdoc Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Hi all, Trying to understand why my right winger is underperforming despite having much better stats than the alternatives, who are overperforming. These are the three players in question: Roony (Underperforming), Wilson (Massively Overperforming), Asprilla (Overperforming). As you can see Wilson outperforms Roony in most metrics others than dribbling. This is the tactic (high tempo, high pressing): PIs: (Recently took "tackle harder" off Roony. His tackling was 3/20 earlier in the year and I moved him to the defensive training group and now it's improved) Comparison: It seems to me the main differences are: Defensively Roony sucks. His 3-5 tackling sees him give away move fouls. He also has the lowest aggression stat of the 3 which in a high pressing system may be crucial. Roony has better work rate, team-work, and all physicals, I don't understand why his sprints/90 and distance covered /90 are lower. Their PPMs I think are significant. Wilson and Asprilla have "likes ball played to feet". Adaptation shouldn't be an issue as Roony has been with us for 2 seasons. Wilson is a team leader and Roony is an "other": Anyway - any thoughts welcome! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahnzo Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I'd start by summoning him to my office and criticize his recent form. You mentioned the tackling, I'd certainly put him on "Ease off", but I doubt that's his troubles. Plays ball to feet might be good since he's small. I mean sometimes a player's bad form is not getting the ball much so he doesn't get a chance to perform. In the end, he's still 19 so it might just be growing pains. I think it's certain he'll be world class at some point with some game time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Naysay Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 It's interesting, it's not just that he's performing badly in comparison to Wilson but he's also not even trying to do as much as Wilson. A great example if you're on a budget why stats led recruitment works nicely in the game too when you consider Wilsons valuation. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
