    IMHO, this should be the actual ratings.

    The thing that always gets me is when they clearly underrate the top speed of players to keep their overall rating down. The biggest example is Brek Shea, they have him at 73 the same rating they give Dempsey, Altidore, and Ream while Holden is 74, Bedoya 78, and Jones is an 81. I can't see how anyone who has actually watched all of those guys play comes to the conclusion that Shea is the slowest of the group. They rate Jose Torres at fricking 72, they rate Lee Nguyen at 80, they rate Luis Silva and Agudelo at 78. They also have Bradley at 68 while Mix is at 71. I think in general these numbers are better than past versions but some of them make no sense when compared to others.

    I am disappointed that the USMNT players are so underrated. I can only hope as the next round of play rolls around they improve as I don't know is regular league play will change the ratings.

    Check your math. MB is rated 75 in passing. There are seven players with a 75 or higher. That's disappointing because Bradley is clearly the USA's best passer and I assume that USA is their biggest market; so there's really no excuse for a discrepancy like that.

    I sorted it them from Highest to Lowest, no one else is higher than Bradley besides Zusi and Holden, who are both 78...

    The only other players that are at 75 are Dempsey, Fabian and Donovan.

    Okay. So there are six players (not seven) with 75 or higher in passing and Bradley is at 75. And Dempsey rated the same passing as Bradley? That's more than a stretch. The overarching point still is that Bradley is easily the best passer on the team. One could make the case he's the best passer on the planet.

    He isn't but he certainly has an ardent fanbase.

    Football Manager has the good ratings. In PES, you can import them to your game (on PC).

    In past games, you could change the ratings manually. I'm not sure why you can't anymore.

    I have things id nit pick at the good thing to see is that the base of players overall rating is improving meaning their giving more respect to our fringe players as a whole.

    Here we go__ Typical American soccer inferiority complex at work. Michael Bradley is arguably the best passer in the world. Simple as that. There's no need to be an American apologist.

    At club and country, MB typically completes about 90 percent of his passes. And they are often high degree passes. When he plays for the USA, he almost inevitably has a key pass during scoring sequences. Why would I not be serious?
