Yea the whole rating system is so wack. I don't get how playing someone out of position suddenly means they forgot how to dribble. Imo only some stats should be affected like attack, defense, response, and teamwork but previous system was better. It's a gamble when finding a position for someone, you just never know the outcome. It's fun and sometimes they actually play really good in that position just like irl. With the new noobified system, you immediately know that they're gonna suck. Where is the fun in that?
If Konami still sticks with this system they really need to sort it out next year. The best players should have the best ratings, end of. It doesn't make any sense for the best player in the game (Messi) to have 85 and a lot of players in his position that aren't as good have higher ratings. Better yet just ditch this noob system and bring back the good old hex, problem solved.
