I play as Celtic in PES3 , yet even with Larsson's high stats he is brushed off the ball with the slightest touch and even the likes of Sutton. Yet CPU teams players of the same or less "stats" with some of them you would need a sledgehammer to get them off the ball.


The only stat that is "low" in larssons profile is Defence was you would imagine! you would have thought it was "balance" & "Agility" that would keep them from being brushed off the ball at the slightest touch? I mean I ran at a player veered away from him to go around him and yet the guy stands there Larsson bounces off him and spins aounnd 360 staying on his feet and the player makes off with the ball , most times in any sort of tackle or leaning against Larsson falls over or spins around off the player and they make off with the ball..


Now in real life larsson is not a great tackler or defender though he can get some good tackles in and he can hold much bigger defenders off he looks slight but is as solid as a rock.

Now ( just wondering , I don't want to do it ) but if I put up his defending stat in the high 70' to low 80's would that make it harder for defenders just to brush him aside with ease. Is it those stat that make players in general harder to knock off the ball.. If so it should be changed to something else ... for if it is this stat that make players harder to knock off the ball , then it gives most something they should not have and thats good tackling and defencive know how! I was playing against Real Madrid and Beckham was brushing the like of Sutton and Hartons off the ball with easy , yet when pressing and leaning into Beckham with my 6ft+ 13st defenders he could hold them off .... a bit un balanced ..

push back! so instead, of say, pushing straight left when a defender is along side you, move the stick diagonally,into the defenders path. so if the defender is above you puch up and left diagonally. just dont hold it there or you will head in that direction.
