Tema: Average quality

I was wondering if a players average quality is just that, an average, or is it a bit more.

The average quality of a player is the average of the quality of the players attributes, so in theory if 2 players have the exact same attributes as well as the quality of each attribute, then it would be fair to say they are the same.

My consideration for debate is, imagine 2 wingers with the exact same values except the quality of defense. Player A has a value of 10, while Player B has a value of 90. This means that the average quality for Player B is 11 points (90 - 10 = 80 and 80 / 7 = 11.4) higher than the one for Player A.

Is Player B a better player than Player A? or is the average quality just an average with no other significance?

Just the average will be higher. Quality only dictates a rate at which a player can train that attribute. It is a way of gauging potential. Unless you train defence for your wingers, that extra Q is useless.

I used the winger versus the defense quality as an example just as I could have used a defender versus an offense quality.

I would like to hear other opinions, do you think it gives you nothing more like canucks, or do you believe it adds to player performance?
