For example, if they play on the wing, they will need to have decent pace stats (I recommend anything above 85), decent passing/crossing stats to supply your striker, and above average shooting stats to be able to put the ball into the back of the net if the opportunity arises.
What stats are important?
To make things easier for you guys and to make it more simplistic, I will list each position and what stats you should consider looking at before purchase:
GK – High Reflexes, High Diving, High Handling, High Positioning
CB – High Pace, High Defending, High Physicality
LB/RB – High Pace, Semi-Decent Dribbling, High Defending, High Passing, Semi-Decent Physicality
CDM – Semi-Decent Pace, High Defending, High Physicality
CM – High Passing, Semi-Decent Pace, Semi-Decent Shooting, High Passing, High Dribbling – PLAYER EXAMPLE: IF De Jong
