General update in both sets.

The previous sets:

The last set is Naka's, I don't know him well for that 93-94 era. What do you suggest in passing for the 3 sets ?

I said what I think, this should be discussed by more members, not just you and me. I don't want to force my opinion alone, I just made a "warning" on what I really think is wrong. As an administrator of the site, I think it was my duty to do so...

I use in my OF Maradona in Classic Napoli team with SPA 94 and LPA 94, that's all I have to say...

Well, the discussion is open to every member indeed...

I think the same as JeanMarc told about his Passes...

I mean, he was a great passer, yes but does he deserve SPA 95 and LPA 96?
I just answer no, in my opinion should be SPA 93 or 94 (I'm not sure because I don't know
if Maradona had the same skills for that passes like Zidane or Luís Suárez, for example)

About LPA, had he the same level in that aspect like Pirlo(One of the best long passers ever)?
I have to answer the same, no... I'd like to say 94 as JeanMarc told about his Option file, I consider it fair
for Maradona...

Wolfgang Overath has 94 in SPA, 95 LPA and I think he was better than Maradona with Passes skills (long and short passes)

By the way, I'm looking too... What about his AGG?
I saw him a better in that aspect than Messi, but not sure about it (I'm talking from my memory right now, maybe I can be wrong with this last observation)

For a benchmark:

MARADONA (PES 2011)

LPA is too high, IMHO 93-94 max he was worse than Platini or Pirlo in this.

Why shot stats in Napoli era are worse than early days set?

Ok, it would be good to update this thread..

Can some of you put precise numbers for some abilities and specify for which set

I personally find DEF 20 redicuolous in the last set, and rediculous for any player in any era...

Regarding passing, I use those values in my OF just because of the fame of the player and respect for Charruan. But being honest, from what I've seen in Napoli, I don't think he should have more than those PES 2011 values, and certainly SPA better than LPA...

As for shooting, his scoring record in Napoli wasn't spectacular, but I don't have problems with higher shooting stats, I also use him with orange SA...

Since Naka did the 1994 set, here's his opinion about the passes:


For the 80-82 set, I'd maintain SPA/SPS as they are and update LPA: 88 , LPS: 81 , the Konami values.

My suggest as I told, could be:

SPA: 93 or 92, I don't know which exact value could suits him better
LPA: 94 (I think he doesn't deserve less, but either more...)

what about his FK and DA ? i don't think he can same level with Platini in FK, and about DA I think can go down to 95 or 96, he can't same level with great dribbler like Garrincha, magico, and matthews IMO,,

I don't know, Maradona for me was one of the best Dribblers ever... I think 98 is fine for him
About FKA I can't say anything, I remember he was pretty accuracy... I think 95 should be fine for him, not as the same level as Platini (who is one of the best Free kickers of all time), and well, in his prime set is 95... It should be lower in other two, at least in my opinion

Update:

1980-1982: LPA : 93=>88 / LPS: 79=>81
1993-1994: SPA: 98=>94 / SPS: 80=>82 & LPA: 98=>94 / LPS: 78=>80
