INFO:

Dejan Petković is a Serbian football pundit and retired footballer. In his native country he is widely known under the nickname Rambo while in Brazil he is known as Pet. He played six times for the FR Yugoslavia, scoring one goal. Petković played for seven Brazilian clubs in his career, and was made an honorary consul of Serbia in Brazil.

He is considered one of the best foreign players to have played in Brazil, a great free and corner kicker and passer. In 2006 while playing for Fluminense, he scored a goal directly from a corner against Grêmio. In the next game, he scored another, but the ball hit the hand of a player from Fluminense and entered the goal; nonetheless, the officials counted it as one. Overall, he scored eight goals from corner kicks in his career, the last one on 8 November 2009 for Flamengo against Atlético Mineiro in the Brazilian Série A. He is currently the record holder for most goals from corners scored in football history.

I followed the whole career of Petkovic in Brazil, from Vitoria until his last stay in Flamengo and for sure he was a great player but not as he is being represented here. He looks very overrated here.

Also, the stats doesnt match so much with his gameplay. For example, his nickname used to be Rambo in the beggining of his path because he was stronger than the others. For sure he developed earlier and got that advantage but he is far to became a non physical player after that. Thats why I wouldnt give him 77 of balance.

In general I would lower the others stats accordingly with his prime era attributes.

One "advice" from me, not just for this topic but for making stats in general: Explain why you think that changes should be made. Provide a small info text, show videos, use other players as comparision. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate your effort but it's hard to do something based on your thoughts when there's no explanation behind them..

Right! It is fair. I replied to you by pm with explanations about the players I made so far.

WFA and WFF should both be 8. He was a true ambidextrous player.
