Editing Players and Hidden Stats

[Zygalski]

This is an extremely interesting read and provides evidence for the hidden stats too. Well worth checking out.

We all know that Raúl kisses his ring for his goal celebration.
But if you make a base copy of him, and the copy scores for the team he has been registered to, most likely Spain, he does not kiss the ring.

This suggests there are hidden stats for each player which are not transfered when making copies and includes their celebrations. Some may have noticed certain player move a certain way, eg Beckham, Roberto Carlos - this may be part of it too.

So if you have edited all your club players with replacements and replaced the international players with base copies, the copies will be quite inferior to the original players.

Seems the best way to transfer someone is to leave international players alone and edit a low quality player from the subs bench of that club to become the new player. This edited player will not be as good as the original but he will be slightly better than a base copy.

For those who didn't know, play a friendly match as Japan and in the formation screen, you will notice that you can see the extra stats for all the players by pressing L2 after choosing to substitute players.

The stats are mostly defensive:

GK Ability
GK Jump
PK Save
GK Throw Acc
GK Throw Pwr
GK Catch
GK Coach
Sliding Tackle
Intercept
DF Marking
Clear Acc

Interesting.

Very interesting, and it co-incides with something that bothered me about created players.
Me and my friend always played friendly matches against each other with the same teams, and we each 'created' a striker based on ourselves (well mine looked a bit like me, my friend's player was a 2.05m tall blue haired monster), and we kindly gave ourselves very high stats of about 99 for most things. However, I also 'edited' my favourite footballer, Chris Waddle, and even though I didn't give him 99 for anything (though I did give him lots of 90+s) we both agreed that he seemed to be the better 'player' (and judging by Waddle's base stats in the game, I wouldn't have thought Konami would have been all that generous with hidden stats either). Also even though we both had strikers with 99 for speed and acceleration, they didn't seem as fast as Owen or Carlos.

Making your players shorter will make them faster.
Make two players the same with max stats for everything and one is the tallest possible and one is shortest and the shortest should be faster.
