What would your scout report say?

The Baby-Faced Football Terrorist

Right footed left-winger. Actually, I'm not sure if he can even use his left foot? I saw him try to Rabona like a cnut twice in 30 minutes. Speaking of; he only played for 30 minutes because he's not even a starter. I think the coach felt sorry for him. I can't have been the only one who noticed the tears in his eyes.

Other notes:
- Decent speed but no acceleration so it's all for naught
- Worryingly skinny
- Loves to slide tackle. Used to be a fullback?
- Great right foot though. Damn shame all things considered...

I've spent up to five full minutes watching a Youtube video and/or copied the opinion of the person above me/general consensus of the thread.

I would like to point out some traits that are seemingly so obvious that they can be identified in a short video, but somehow I inexplicably believe won't be noticed or considered by our actual scouts despite them being trained professionals with a world of data at their fingertips.

That's all you need, apparently. Easy this scouting lark, isn't it? :lol:
 
It wouldn't get past 'Made of glass, made of glass, made of glass, will be permanently in the medical room'. Short and sweet.
 
'Slightly worse than the 63 goalkeeping coach'
 
More one footed than Antonio Valencia. Hates tackling/being tackled. Rubbish fitness levels. Tactical genius.
 
Attitude 9/10

Ability 4/10

Defends like a dog and can be a good ball-winner…..but for fecks sake don’t expect him to do anything with it
 
The Scottish Casemiro.

Good back in the day, but fat and old now.
 
A bit in the short side but passes the ball well and has the vision to deliver a killer ball in between or over defenses.

Likes to shoot from distance and puts power on his free kicks. He once scored twice fro, 25 yards in PE class 20 years ago.

Prefers to stay in the middle of the pitch and wait for the ball to land in front of his feet. Doesn’t run much which could be down to poor fitness.

Has a bit of a limp on his left leg, and we worry that his leg might break if a hard tackle comes in.

Should be considered a last resort option only.
