🆕🧵 Here’s a thread on my thoughts of every #Notts player on #FM23

@JayGomezLeathen has done a great job on these! 👏

My FM save content will be coming soon - would people want to see it on here or over on YouTube?

Watch out for FM content coming from @AnalystsBar soon too!

Sam Slocombe
First one up and I think they’ve got it absolutely spot on. Only thing is rushing out, perhaps could be a little higher but that’s only this season so understandable. Love the communication being high and the physicals are accurate too. Great start

Brad Young
Can’t really comment on this one too much as we’ve only seen him against Coalville. Think the Aerial Reach is good as he’s absolutely huge altho 6ft3 is not correct; he’s way taller than that!! Got great potential in game

Richard Brindley
Very average across the board, pace jumps out as being way too low, as does his physicals in general. They should be way higher. Not sure what the Free Kick taking is about either, overall not bad

Connell Rawlinson
Looks a very solid National League defender and tbh think the stats are really accurate. Think passing and crossing could be slightly higher, but tbh think this one is pretty much spot on!

Aden Baldwin
Really like this one. Passing is good, vision could be slightly higher as could pace, but like the fact his potential is high showing his pedigree and ability to improve. Think they’ve nailed this one

Kyle Cameron
Stats wise it’s a very good effort. Got the passing right, aggression could be higher as could his shooting stats, but again they’ve really got this one right. The Scottish nationality is annoying - he has played for them at youth level but he’s very much a Geordie!

Geraldo Bajrami
Wow he’s amazing in game, but this reflects how good he is in real life. Whats great is that he is so well rounded, and that’s exactly what he is like irl. Could be natural in CM too as that’s where he plays most for us, technique could be higher; overall love it

Aaron Nemane
Upgrade needed desperately. Tackling of 4 simply isn’t right, pace and acceleration too low. Mentals are fine but the other areas aren’t great. He’s been one of the best wing backs in the league and these stats don’t reflect that. First miss for me

Tobi Adebayo-Rowling
His stats are very average across the board, apart from physicals where he shines, and tbf this isn’t far off what we have seen so far this season. When we see more of him I’ll be able to evaluate these more, but not too upset by this one

Adam Chicksen
You know what, they’ve absolutely nailed this. I was worried they wouldn’t have finishing up there, but they do, the stamina is perfect and the only slight thing is the personality, this should be consummate professional (or whatever the equivalent is)

Joel Taylor
If anything, these stats are a little generous. Think his pace has remained since his Stoke days on the game, as he hasn’t shown that he is the same speed as Nemane. He also has higher work rate than Chicks which I feel isn’t quite right either

Jim O’Brien
Love it. Really shows he is a cultured midfielder, one who has a wealth of experience. Think they’ve been harsh on his physicals tbh; yes they are declining but he’s not that slow. Mentals are superb tho, love that

Matty Palmer
Not good enough on the game. Feel a lot of the 12s could be 13s, it’s only a slight thing but Palmer could still be playing in League One, and these stats don’t reflect that. He still looks good tho and the numbers are higher in the right areas, just not high enough

Ed Francis
Well rounded on the game and this reflects his game, tbh maybe he’s slightly too highly rated on the game, but the passing and touch do represent the quality he has. Maybe his physicals could be lower

Sam Austin
Off the ball needs to be higher, and feel his technicals have been rated harshly. His work rate and team work are really good and his versatility is well reflected too

Ruben Rodrigues
Wow. He looks superb on the game, as he is in real life. He looks good enough to play in League One, as he is in real life, so they’ve nailed this… apart from work rate and team work! He’s the best presser in our team and this should be reflected

Macaulay Langstaff
Oh yes, like this a lot. Think he could be slightly better (off the ball for example) but ofc he will get a January upgrade, but with 18 goals so far feel he could be slightly better. Still, he’s very very good

Cedwyn Scott
I’m unsure of this one. His physicals are very good, his finishing is too and of course he has really good potential on the game so can improve massively. Think his Mentals could get a boost tho

Kairo Mitchell
This one is almost spot on, just feel his physicals are too low as he is a very good athlete. Other than that they’ve got it down really well; long shots good, work rate high and they’ve got this one down very well indeed

Luther Munakandafa
Love the high potential here and the versatility of positions (Altho wing back should probably be competent). Like the pace and strength and he looks like a prospect with the raw tools to be good in game
