The set looks nice now. I just dont like your last post here, Fixer. ATM

[Fixer]

Well he's already signed up! Not my fault xD

[brazilianpesfan]

I know, but is Espanyol's fault, Sevilla's fault...Adrian would be a great signing for Espanyol.

I know, but is Espanyol's fault, Sevilla's fault...Adrian would be a great signing for Espanyol.

Yeah, I think it too, specially when Callejón will be out of the club the next season.

I like the update, but I really think his RES must be in 80, more than 79. He isn't a starter, he played some seasons on La Liga and knows how to react, wins some balls against good defenders; specially see Riki on 81, Adrián isn't 2 points below him in this aspect.

[tasmin]

oh man ! he could get more DA. just so amazing control and its easy for him to got past opposition.
talented dribbler !

[Fixer]

He Is really talented. Like I pointed he's just a bit off target on his shooting and unconsistent, but he's got a great quality.

[royvd]

Rumoured move to Atletico Madrid. Would be a great signing for them imo especially if Aguero or Forlan would leave.

[Fixer]

Forlan Is not leaving, he said he wants to stay and does not listen offers and the club wants him, so does the coach. But anyway Adrian had It done with Atlético and then Deportivo signed him a contract without his knowledge and then they went to the court and he won so he's likely to finally join.

[Xyder]

He's finally new player of Atlético, you can check it out on Atlético's site.

[Fixer]

Wow now that's close control... great match by him with two excellent assists

[Korinov]

He's been doing great for Atleti so far, easily the best signing just taking individual performances into account. And I have a few suggestions for the current set.

First of all, his main position should be SS, not CF. He only played as a CF for Deportivo just because Lotina wanted to field only one striker, but IMO it's clear that SS is the role he performs better. He's one of those players who creates much more danger against the opposition by NOT living into the area but entering it when the defenders are distracted by the presente of a main striker (Falcao right now). He also shows a high tendency to fall to the sides and sometimes act as a false winger (when needed to widen the field), so I'd give him *Side.

His passing stats are actually way better than what the current set suggests. He's more than able to find teanmates with accurate passes in the opposition area, has a pretty decent cross when he tries, etc. I'd suggest the following:

Short Pass Accuracy: 77 (same level as Albín or Manu del Moral)
Short Pass Speed: 76
Long Pass Accuracy: 77 (on pair with Salvio, one point over Callejón, well deserved IMO, his LPA is indeed pretty good for a SS, the problem is...)
Long Pass Speed: 74 (... the speed, which isn't so good, but I prefer it a point higher than the current 73).

I'd also recommend to raise his TW to 82 (same level as Toquero or Pedro). He's not only unselfish, but is always trying to create chances to his teanmates and knows how to deliver a killing pass in the exact moment pretty well. This season he must be having quite an assists/minutes of play ratio.

[Fixer]

Well those changes seem reasonable to me, I'm cool with them. There are no questions about the position change because It's more than obvious.

[Xyder]

Another agree here.

[Korinov]

Forgot to mention something: the way he plays now, Mazing Run should no longer applies. About two years ago he was more prone to try several dribblings in a row, now he usually takes advantage of his speed to get past one ~ two defenders then usually looks for either a shot or a pass. Incisive Run should be added instead, since that's quite the way he plays as SS.

[Korinov]

Well... he gets the update or not?

[Fixer]

No, gtfo.

On it

[Korinov]

Fixie! SS as main position, please.
