Just sharing my ideas, well I think maybe everyone here knows that Zarate was one of those talents that stood in the way of being one of the best in the world, but that does not mean that Mauro never had talent, I believe that at the time when he was just a kid in Velez and played in Primera Division, his projection as a footballer was superior to Agüero.
His decision to go to Qatar was very stupid, a premonition of what was to be his career.
His signing for Lazio was a good opportunity to be transfer to another team.
Back then He was toying with serie a defenders, beating his man without any problems. But there in lay his problem, he wouldn't stop. He'd just keep going and going, trying to beat another guy, trying to make an impossible shot. He wouldn't pass, he wouldn't pass at all. This lead to him consistently performing rather poorly overall.
I always said though, under a strong manager, he could turn into a great, great player.
There is certain aspects of his game It was just hard to analyse well enough though, his passing and shooting mainly. He really looked like he knew how to place and shoot, but he was also consistently taking impossible shots making it very diffuclt to rate. Likewise with his passing, because he choose not to pass much.
Speaking specifically about the set, I decided downgrade ATT to 80 and improve SA to account for his stupidity in shot selection and also his selfish behaviour.
Here some examples of his creativity but also of his selfish attitude. (Even in his second era in Velez he was selfish)
His BB was decent, he was a sturdy little player, so 81 won't overrated him in combination with the set.
He was faster but IMO, inconsistent in this aspect here is and example.

His main weapon, his Dribbling Prowess, just amazing, I test several values but imo 93 is the right one, he can step the ball so nicely, in-game his turns and dribblings are lovely to see so I decide to let him with this number.
Enjoy....
Middle Shooting and Long Ranger are a must, he deserves that cards and sa's
About FK's accuracy he was decent and but the detail resides in his CUR, but outside set pieces his CUR doesn't look impresive.
About TMW and MEN we all already know Zarate is Selfish, he dissapear from games when his team is struggling.
Here is my set after analized him in deep...
