Thank you so much to the creator of the Marcuss FIFA OVR Calculator, I used it a lot throughout this video.
I’m sure everyone watching this has had one of those players that's low rated, but plays better than anyone else in your squad. Maybe you preferred using Timo Werner over Thomas Muller, maybe it was Ansu Fati being a better striker than Robert Lewandowski, well today we’re looking at exactly what makes a player perform, and showing how little overall actually matters!

FIFA 22 there was a Thai player who plays in The J League for Kawasaki Frontale called Chanathip Songkrasin, and this guy was crazy good. 27 years old at the time, 71 rated CF but position change to a cam or a winger and he’s 73!

In Fifa 20, Vinicius Jr. was 79 rated but felt like 90+ rated winger. Sure his finishing left a lot to be desired but he was a better player at 79 OVR than Gareth Bale at 85 OVR and Eden Hazard at 91 OVR. Could beat defenders with such ease, it was unbelievable.

Ive always thought about what if overall ratings or stats wouldnt even be displayed in career mode, it would be cool having to judge by the market value and the players recent performances. Scouts can be assigned to try and determine their weak foot ability and work rates, reputation. I think they should att a setting that allowes to do that.

You are right, playing cm for years now. For example Kyogo was one of my best strikers in the last career mode. He was only 77-80 but would make the topscorer in league and CL, so smooth to play, nearly as to play with Messi. Btw nice Channel I watch every video.

Another good low rated striker is Jamal Lowe. Feels so slick and smooth on the ball and he bags so many goals

@szymonski1905 Год назад

For all wide players, I highly recommend sticking them on the opposite side dev plan (make RB’s train to become LB’s etc) as the stats that are improved change as they go up, so they’re always training the stats that make them better for their position and it works wonders - they grow so fast! Only downside is it doesn’t normally upgrade stamina, work rates and weak foot, so bare that mind.

@MicDubTV Год назад

Gonna be honest, man. I don’t watch many FIFA videos, but I’ve played a TON over the past year and a half after a 6 year hiatus from the franchise. I love Career Mode more than any other mode & play it exclusively. I don’t watch many FIFA videos (like at all), but one of your videos showed up in my recommended tonight. This video is the 2nd of yours that I’ve watched. You’ve totally earned a sub! I don’t see many Career Mode FIFA/PES RU-vidrs who actually make quality content. But, your content is FANTASTIC. I say that as a full time content creator myself. Keep it up!

@Amyante Год назад

Training wise, the first thing i focus on is getting each player to High/High and 5*/5*, only after that's done i start looking at the stats (and usually keep it on Balance). Getting the basics in order ensures everyone's doing their job on the pitch, and i can look at who isn't able to keep up and where i need to improve the team.

@sander2723 Год назад

Looking purely at overall ratings when signing has been my biggest fifa weakness. Just signing people for the name or 1 particular stat and then founding out they dont play the way you want in the role you had in mind or dont fit with the rest of the team. So hard to break that mindset tho

@Coopdegras Год назад

@plsdi111 Год назад

Another example: underrater fullbacks with less pace. If they pass and defend well, you can use them as a modern, inverted fullback. They dont need a lot of pace, but they have to pass and defend well, as they help to build up the attack, and stop the opposition on a counter,

@xero1895 Год назад

in a previous fifa (fifa 20) there were two players who were insane af: oliver bias and karamkoko dembele, both were young and most important about 160cm tall and they played so good, that they as 70 rated played/performated better than their mates who had about 84 or 87, it was crazy

@michaelg.4756 Год назад

I completely agree. There are a lot of players that never appear in RTG or rebuilds because of their overall, because the whole season is simulated. But a question: where can I find out more about what stats different positions need? Like what are the stats that lets you determine with a 15yo Midfielder which position to convert him to, to train him up with his ideal position?

@Sam11_11 Год назад

Also train the to be a LM or RM and train the opposite position so say their a LM train them RM and it will train those winger stats for that position and help them grow faster.

It depends, if it's a little difference in overall or if their both a usable rating. But a 60 rated player is not better than a 90 rated player

@troyr8999 Год назад

His point is that it's not the overall that's the difference. In career mode you can 100% have a 60 overall player that is better than a 90 overall player. It's all based on the attributes. I can have a LB but train him as a striker for 6 years to where he is as good at striker as Mbappe but is still a 60 overall LB.

For ST, I will always prefer to have one ST with high strength, jumping, and heading stats, while another with good dribbling stats. Most importantly, I will make sure all my younger players to have 5 start weak foot and skill moves
