Here I'll post my scout reports of free agents that I'll come across while I'm hosting and recording. Note that this is just one man's opinion based on a small amount of game time, so try not to get offended. The attribute system are taken from Football Manager. Others are ofc welcome to submit their own reports.

Work Rate 12

Best attribute: Reading the game. XL seems very focused throughout the game and his ability to anticipate the play makes him valuable in midfield.

Worst attribute: Stopping opponents. Poor tackling and marking makes XL weak in defensive situations.

Recommendation: XL has the potential to be a good 1st Division player, but should probably start in 2nd Division for more game time and possible improvement.

Scouted him months ago, always thought he was brilliant. However, he can't make Sundays and may miss some Thursdays due to Uni work.

Best attribute: Stopping opponents. Boyshock's ability to mark and tackle players makes him very effective as a Defensive Midfielder.

Recommendation: Boyshock has the potential to become a good Defensive Midfielder for division 2 or a decent back up GK.

Do me coach, but seriously what are the ratings max limit as then we cannot see how good you think they are?

The attributes are rated from 1 to 20. I'm not doing overall ratings though, merely "recommendations".

Work Rate 11

Best attribute: First Touch. Good reaction times make Gazza dangerous when offered a fast cross or rebound.

Worst attribute: Positioning. Gazza tends to roam too much out of position and often ends up in locations where he'll make no impact or even block a teammate.

Recommendation: (2nd Div) Gazza would be a decent choice for a 2nd division midfielder with the potential of becoming a good forward.

Can i be scouted ;D

Great idea vargo

these are really good, exactly how these ratings should be. proper indepth ratings and strengths/weaknesses afterwards. top class.

Nice Vargo

You stole this from football manager! joke can i get scouted? or better yet can i scout myself :PP? xD

I'm surprised I've gotten so many positive responses These reports can easily be very inaccurate should it be based on just 1 or 2 games. For those who wants to be scouted, just look for me in any FM room. I usually host myself in the afternoons, (remember to check for a danish flag)

These are great, Vargo!

Mfw boyshock is actually me and got told my nations defensive corner play was amazing by Aidan, other than that GG vargo

Shockboy wrote:Mfw boyshock is actually me and got told my nations defensive corner play was amazing by Aidan, other than that GG vargo

As I said, these reports are only based on the games I've recorded, so they may not be accurate. Everyone can have a bad day or maybe just fooling around while I happen to record.

These are very good Vargo.

Might I suggest some further clarification on the work rate score - I think that an effectiveness and efficiency score would go further to help clarify this rating, e.g. a midfield player can work extremely hard, pressuring and chasing, but at the same time not be at all effective or efficient in what they do. A keeper can move very little, but be extremely effective and efficient by making saves and good distribution.

If there were a score for that one Griff, i'm sure i'd warrant at least a 19 - call it the headless chicken rating

I see your point, but rating effectiveness/efficiency is kinda like giving them an overall rating and would require me to combine several attributes and rank them accordingly to the position in question, which is a lot more complicated. However, if you do combine several attributes and look at them as a whole, you might be able to make your own conclusion of how effective a player really is for the given position. A simple example would be a typical "ball chaser" - highly aggressive player with lots of work rate but low anticipation. This combination of attributes makes a bad player while another combination can make a good one.

Work Rate - How mentally driven a player is to work hard throughout the match.

Recommendation: (2nd Division) Fabien has the potential of becoming a good midfielder.

Vargo, these are brilliant tbh

Scout QEZO Vargo

These are great but will you be scouting a player more than once? You may scout a player who was off his game at the time.

But great work

Picking and choosing our games, are we?

Well played there though!

I've got a long list of people wanting to be scouted so you all have to be patient.

Yeah Cookies Haha Thanks... My plan is hopefully to continue the good form and not concede for the remainder of the tournament, Win the Nations Cup on the way!

I'd be interested to see mine done.
