stanima/playmaking

[saintjo]

im looking to buy an excellent playmaker for my midfield. i found a descent guy but his stanima is only passible. how much will that hurt him. and would he play better or worse than an excellent stanima guy with passable playmaking? i plan on training stanima early next season, but i wanted to see if this guy can contribute enough until then.

i'm pretty sure it's been said that stamina is just as important as playmaking for inner middies but you may want to wait for someone to confirm that

PS - check out my youth pull this week, he might be able to fit into your training program nicely and cheaply

I'd say that, for IM's of level Excellent or below, Stamina = 30%, PM equals 50%, other secondaries=20%.

He won't contribute very much until this offseason when you have your chance to train stamina. On the other hand, training stamina is significantly easier and quicker than training playmaking and you'll get him for MUCH cheaper than an excellent playmaker with excellent stamina. So if you can afford to live with his lack of production until then I would say it's not a bad move.
