Because the plan was 6*16 but the new training troll my plans. But he will be 15 at least.
Now, why?
It is very important for a team to have an multi skills player. you have the freedom to choose tactics like 5-2-3 and 5-4-1 without risk a red card on mid or Att and destroy your game. Easy to put orders for the team in case of red card, he can play any position. If you have injuries in team you can use him too where you need.
You can easy put him to execute free kicks , for pass and shooting. To many benefits compared to having 1 super player in one two position

I disagree in 100%

It's better to have a top max player in 95% of games than to train him so he might be more useful in 5% of games when you get a certain red card. especially since with a red card you're usually effed up anyway.

even with 6x unearthly at top level he is really useful only as central midfielder

too low pace/tech for winger
too low pace/tech for striker as well

If you see the things from this point of view i can tell this thing:))
I prefer to win 100% of games with one goal difference instead of winning 95% of games with 2-3 goal difference:))

Personal preference I guess, but I would have went for the main skills and defender too....he could have been 5xdivine or close, 5x16 at 32 years old, still world class....
This way, if he drops at passing or playmaker, he won`t look the same way,,,..

Nope, at 21 years old he had 11 at striker. He got 12 only from GTs. With the diff he could have max 2*17 skills. So 2*17 vs 15 striker...hmm easy decision..

I think such players can be extremely usefull as ATT support! Placing him next to your strikers with MID order will have you destroy many teams! He's undervalued by many...but I know what he's capable of when you play him the right way.

It can be useful, but at top level you need a ~3x superdivine ATT with brilliant+ passing and playmaker to make it work

Other option is a superdivine pace+tech winger with brilliant+ striker

I wouldn’t want in my team an uneearthly pace+tech player receiving balls in offensive third, waste of possesion at top level

Thing is, he needs to play with MID order, not ATT order. He's a support and needs to play as one too. Believe me...he will increase the productivity if played out well.

I had this kind of players, I know how they play

unearthly pace and unearthly technique is not enough to play as advance player (winger, striker, 10, whatever) at top level

But he's not just unearhtly pace, unearthly tech...
He also has unearthly PM and passing AND brilliant scoring.
I don't think you know how to make such players play better than clean top strikers...tbh
Otherwise, you would have agreed with me.
But each his own preferences... No problem :-)

I don't think you know how to make such players play better than clean top strikers...tbh

wow, great insight.

I had a 3x superdivine striker with magical playmaker & passing in my club, I used him at top level, I won Polish Ekstraklasa & Cup twice, I reached Champions Cup final. I know how to use such players because I used them.

I precisely trained that ATT to have such skills and he was vital to my achievements

and how do you know how to use such players exactly, at top level?

But he's not just unearhtly pace, unearthly tech...
He also has unearthly PM and passing AND brilliant scoring.

That's where from my point of view you are wrong

these are secondary, EXTRA skills, that give you ADDITIONAL possibilities

but first of all you need BASIC skills for the position - so pace, tech, striker, otherwise the player won't fulfil his most important duties

what you are arguing is as if you were arguing that having brilliant tech/pm/passing for a defender is a great idea because you have additional possibilities, but this def had only magical pace and defender... and yes, such defender would be very useful to make good passes, would make less mistakes with ball etc. BUT he wouldn't be good enough in stopping wingers/attackers of opponent because he would lack basic skills...

it's the same story - fine that he will be able to pass the ball fast & properly to a winger or another striker, great that he will sometimes get an assists by crossing from a wide position to another striker etc.
but most of the situations wide striker uses his pace, technique and striker - and with unearthly pace/tech he will be MUCH less dangerous than a 3x superdivine striker

Well...you speak about strikers...I speak about MIDS. There's the big difference.
I don't see this guy as a striker, but as a MID. And because his high scoring skill, he's much more valuable in the front line, but tactically he needs to play as a mid, to pull other defs and keeper towards him, so he can find a free striker easy. His assist rate will sky rocket! And the times he appears alone in front of goal, he can also score easier + setpieces... This player is undervalued much more than you realise and I believe he's crucial in an offensive tactic. That doesn't mean that he must replace the real triple divine striker...No, he must assist him.

I would like to see this player in different positions and see the performance

What a nice player. Irl i would prefer 16x6. In sk i dont know and this is a small fail from sk. 3x18 are better than these smart and functional players

Have you ever used this kind of player at top level?

Have you ever used a "10" in sokker at top level? Or a "front line MID" whatever that is?

There's no difference if you consider him ATT or MID - he plays up front, he MUST have top level pace&tech, same way a winger must have superdivine pace/tech to be optimal for his position.

You are writing theories, I'm talking about practice.

You can write whatever you want, imagination is your limit, you can even create a beautiful theory about using wingbacks or inverted full backs, or deep playmaking number 6. But that's just theory, in practice that doesn't work in this game because it has a very simple and limited engine.

Unearthly pace + unearthly tech "front line" player is too weak for top level, doesn't matter what side skills he has

ed: I checked your team history... you've played once at highest level in Belgium, finished at 10th place and relegated, while playing for around 64-67 rating.

that's far from top level [top = rating between at least 75 and 84] and you're trying to tell me that I don't know what I'm talking about... all you know in this context is a made up theory of how you IMAGINE something could work, but it doesn't work that way, sorry - I know that because I actually used that in practice.

this 5x unearthly + brilliant striker player could indeed play very well at offensive role if he played in a team playing in a ~65 rating league... but that's not top level, that's 3rd-4th Polish league level, and we are talking about a 5x unearthly MID that could've been even better (2x divine 3x unearthly) - and as a MID he is a top level player for best teams in the game, as offensive player he is simply not good enough for anything near the top level.

I would like to see this player in different positions and see the performance

you can watch his leagues games

in last league game as a 10 he made 0 shots and the striker in front of him made 3 shots, none of them after actions from this 5x unearthly with striker

as you say, this is a pretty simple game, 3x 18 specialist is more useful than an all-round player.
same with winger, you need superdivine pace and technique + high pm/passing.
for defendrs you need first of all max pace and defender.

sideskills are great and very useful, but they are SIDEskills, they give you something extra but you must have the basic skills first

I agree with everything you said. Thats why you have main skills and secondary skills. Striker is secondary skill for mid as pm and passing are secondary skills for a striker. I would take a 3xsuperdivine striker with 7 side skills over a 5x16 in atack position any day of the week. Twice on Sundays.
