ok mine is 177 and then i am swapping him in the second half with a 187 i think it was so if its height related it will be visible.

My winger is 185 and 3x divine on the left side.
Could not deliver a single useful cross or pass eventhough the striker was always unmarked on the short post.
Don't know if this is somehow related to any engine change, but I will have to keep an eye on this because it's not what you expect from such a player.

yeah i couldnt really see that much of a difference between my 2 players last night. I do expect that height has something to do with the shoddy passing. What i did notice was the defenders trying more passes (for me they ended out the park) and i also saw the usual panic boot out the park if there was another player close by.

I noticed it, the difference was not what I expected though

I thought that the acceleration period itself would be slower for taller players, what I noticed was that they accelerated the same as always once they got going, the difference was that taller players took longer to start accelerating

so to break it down it seems to work like this now

reaction period (determined by height) --> acceleration period (determined by tech) --> top speed (without the ball it is determined by pace, with the ball it is pace + technique)

How is that possible that 170cm striker always beats 185cm def in headers?

he jumps higher?:P

better timing?

spring in his shoes?

see, there's so many possibilities

i analysed an U21 match from this Friday and I didnt notice much height influence on header duelling. When it was small att vs tall def, the attacker even won more :)

he climbed on the defender's back :D

Has any of you an example of new ME "block" feature during a game to show us ?

I have one, I think. Early in my yesterdays game. Number 11 kicks the ball towards the goal, but the ball got blocked. I thought it was an old feature, but it looked odd. I didn't know blocking was new?

Didn't see what you meant but saw a nice one at min. 32

something change about red cards?

a lot in NT matches
a lot in club matches

6 red cards in last 4 matches for me...and i have divine def


is only a question...not polemic

dunno... my defs ( almost divine) have not so many cards...
