Gimme a sec chief.. :p Ideas for cards?

[Fevernova]

For []Cards, I´d go with:
P03 – Classic No.10
P05 – Trickster
P11 – Cut Back Pass
S01 – Reaction
S02 – Passer
S03 – 1-on1 Finish

I might have underrated this legend in terms of ATT.

[jurgens]

What value would you suggest?

[patrick88]

i think the addition of the cards goes a long way towards boosting his attacking qualities tho i wouldn't object to a raise of 1 or 2 points - his scoring rate for this period was excellent

just to be pedantic should the age on the 1st post be updated to 23-25?
