Help help me understand how potential ability works.


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys. I'm total newbie here and really need some advice.

I love to build my team with a bunch of youngster in it. gather potential talents and see their development. But recently I found out that some of them are loosing their potential ability stars. like for example, I signed Warren-emery from PSG and Patino from arsenal at the first season. My scout showed that both of em have 4-5 stars potential ability. but at winter break, they have only 3 potential stars 😴what caused it?

I set their training to intensive, and lowering it when they're tired. giving them a plenty of playing time, and signed best mentor for them from this list 

 

 

any advice to prevent the youngster dropped their potential ability stars?

Great question.

The good news is that your young players potential ability (PA)has NOT actually decreased.

Instead, you can see on the coach report that your player is in ‘below average form’.

This means that players’ coach report ‘stars’ will be reduced - both for current ability and potential ability - for the duration that they have this poor form.

Once you enter a new season, or once the player has better form (e.g. 5 games of ~7 match ratings, either for you or out on loan) - then his coach report ‘stars’ will go back up to normal + the message about ‘below average form’ will disappear.

Note - the coach report ‘stars’ are not precise / not 100% accurate - as coaches can be wrong + a natural / gold coach will have more accurate ‘stars’ than a worse coach. But the coach report stars are still helpful.

Does that help? 🙂

Thank You, DanEnglish. It's been a relief to hear your explanation. thanks for the answer, I really appreciate it. I will continue to treat my young players as usual and wait for their condition to improve 💪

Cheers mate 😁

Danglish has said it all 

AI coaches lie a lot lols 

They are most times inaccurate 

I don't take rating or stars serious only when I'm scouting for a South American U16 star boy and it's the first report I take serious, I usually sort with potential ratings to get the potential star players after the first report, the ratings fluctuate due game time (if they sitting on the bench or doing the playing), form, morale, etc 

So I focus on player attributes, more of the green and blues of 13 14,means he is good 

 

Like in my sunderland save, u saw an ex arsenal player, I didn't know he was the one but because I've used him previous editions, I figured he was the one. He doesn't have good rating or potential rating in all the editions I've used him neither does he have a very good or high market value, always between 7 to 15m but he does have those greens (attributes) I want from my defenders, I used him regardless of his stars, trust me he is very solid like a rock 

 

On a good day, great series of match rating, form and morale, his stars is 3 star and half, sometimes he drops to 2

 

Highest market value I've seen him was 35m in my Sunderland save, helped me bring backs Sunderland to the Premier league and he is a loyal servant, clubs come for him and bid less and I reject, he don't get mad at me 

 

He is 22 as game starts, his name starts with B, can't remember his name now
