Updated and era Changed Era to "2008-2011"

Can you post the old set? It could work for the 2012-2014 era.

I'd rather wait untill the next Copa America... his perfomances are getting better and i think i should work on two sets of him on Rubin & this new season on Zenit...

Added 2012-2013 & 2014-2015 sets.

The attack number in the 2012-2013 lacks coloring...

STA really doesn't need to be in yellow, he could get tired by the 75-80 min mark and DS neither, his speed on the ball isn't that good either.

Meanwhile, TS is underrated here, he has good pace over long distance, certainly faster than guys like Lewa nor Luis Suarez (keeping the distance lol).

Goal poacher isn't really his style, rather Dummy Runner as he use to battle a lot with defenders and tends move around in order to distract them..

1-On-1 Scoring/Finish and Scoring aren't needed, rather post player since he's good holding the ball with his physique.

He's actually a SA > ST player (he has nice finishing skills as long he's good position) but still needs to get reduced, look how he's somehow still struggling at he EPL since in Russia he played in 2 of the dominants teams there and have a good scoring record, now playing a rather middle table team with defensive style you could see that he's not that 'good' as he was at Zenit. His main asset is HEA, and is probably underrated here on the sets.

Then BB is tricky, look here against Robert Huth (Huth is certainly not a weak player):



And then look at his against Smalling:

I need to sort out some stuff in the old sets, then i'll eventually add them to the main post.

Rondon now is certainly a high yellow player in balance. And obviuosly, with the Post Player star.

Any ideas for a new set of him?

Probably the stats in spoiler could be a basis for something like 2015-2017.

Free kicks shoukd probably get a small boost, he has started to take (and score) some at the NT whenever Rómulo "CR7" Otero isn't playing
