Here from what I remember about him his DEF could be a bit lower as well BB and maybe MEN.. his style of play was pretty extravagant, with nice technique IMO it should be in yellow, but I've always had impression that he played a bit harsh, relying on physical attributes more than on some good defensive work.. also I'm not so sure about that high speed stats..

Yes, he was skillful in attacking movements...

Anyway most of his CB are bit overrated in DEF and STA, even those from lower teams who never played for NT have DEF and STA 85...

He could have DEF 83 at max and BB 90, I think it' more than enough for him.. STA could stay on current value since he knew go forward in attacking runs repeating it several times during the match.. what about MEN?

Yes, STA is fine. I was referring to his other defenders with high STA..MEN can be lowered to 85..

Ok, what do you think about speed? He wasn't slow player but it could have some changes..

About 82-83

General update..

What about higher aggression? Even though this's pretty high for a defender, West is maybe one of the more aggressive defender. He appears in the front line unusually very frequent, even for a defender. He often looked even more aggressive than a DMF.

It can be raised, he insisted in his runs to go forward pretty often.. I think something like 73-74 would be good for him..

Yeah, i'm thinking about just 1-2 points below the lowest green mark is a good place for Taribo West. His DA can also got some raise. He definitely did more solo runs than the likes of Nesta who had the same number with West.

Updated, DA 78 -->80, AGG 71 -->73..
