@Kollektivet: If you have suggestions for him, please post them in here. Thanks!

Need to check my notes, because this set makes him one of the best defenders in French football history
For sure Def, Bal, Sta, Res need to go down, I don't think he was that technical as well..

I'll see to add some suggestions

A pretty classy defender/libero, really controlled the defense well. He had a remarkable heading game, excellent positioning, very fast with a good technique. Overall - great tackling, composure and very calm in the back. Frequently started the attacks, very confident in his passing game, loved playing shorter weighted passes to move the opposing defense.

It often says that he was trained as an attacking midfielder or even striker, then moved back to central defense but that did not prevent him from helping his attacking teammates to score at least five goals per season. It also says - always attracted by the goal, he regularly came to lend a hand to the attackers, inaugurating a tradition of defenders-strikers. I must be honest and say that in the limited amount of videos I haven't seen his bursts forward - maybe due to the tactic in the 1978 Cup final or because he debuted with France in just 2 games so he didn't show it. Also, it is mentioned that he is a good free-kick shooter, but I couldn't see this because Platini was #1 - there's only one short video from Nice years where he scored from a free kick.

All in all, I would reduce the set to his Nancy years (1975-1979), and based on the above these are some of the suggestions:

Attack: 70 -> 69
Defence: 86 -> 85
Balance: 87 -> 83
Stamina: 85 -> 82
Top Speed: 83 -> 82
Acceleration: 82 -> 81

Aggression: 73
Mentality/Tenacity: 85 -> 84

The cards and special abilities are good, as well as condition and consistency.
