ALL English players (in the Premier league) are insanely overrated year after year, at least since CM4. Everyone but fanboys from England is annoyed by that. We know that England is the biggest market for the game, but it is embarrassingly biased.
When I used to mod the game, the first thing I would do is to decrease PA and CA of all English players by 20. Plus some further adjustments. No English player should have PA/CA over 160.
