Oh, thats really rough, especially considering I'm just a football enthusiast who play football in his yard to chill with the rest of my family. XD I'd say I'm propably under 50? Sometime I wish I could have gotten into football as a kid but still doesn't stop me from enjoying it as a observer I think. :)
If you had your likeness in FIFA, you are in your prime, healthy, and you had to pick your rating, what would you set yourself at?
For me, I was stupid fast in my prime, talking true track speed, and I had a nice powerful right foot. I had a decent touch on the ball but lacked true close control in tight spaces. Trapping was just fine, but when I needed to get through more than a few defenders, I missed some of the finer cuts. I loved to pass and go so I released the ball a lot and was accurate with short and long passes. (LOVED switching the ball on the diagonal or full side switch to open things up)
I had like two moves, that seemed to work pretty well, to get by players in space, and I had a solid shooting range. I was decent with my left foot and did shoot with it when needed, but the power was nothing like the right. My fastest ball recorded was 86mph and I think I could hit as high as 88. Shooting accuracy was ok and I could knuckle and curve the ball pretty well. Not as powerful as the Roberto Carlos's of the world, but I could ping it.
Crossing was a strong point, which is why I played a lot of winger. Finishing on a break was solid and I never missed a PK in any competitive match. (knock on wood)
My weakest areas were headers for sure. I'm not the tallest dude (5'8) so I was just beat by the bigger guys when in the air. I jumped pretty high, like could grab a basketball rim, but when going against 6'3 and up players, strong players, I didn't win a lot of aerial duels.
I also did not have that dribble in tight spaces touch. As I got older I actually got better in tight spaces, but it doesn't count now. haha
So, if I was to try and fairly rate myself, I think I would have been a solid 75 to 78 or so, overall. Might be a little high when seeing some of the players in FIFA with that score, but eh, screw it. haha
So, what rating are you!!!!
