Hi Dzek,
You're right, in the original version posted a couple of weeks ago, I'd manually extracted all the weights using the IGE (spending hours doing so!). I then discovered the weights were actually in the FM21 pre-game editor (they haven't been before!). Doh!
So I updated the article with the 'official' weights from the editor. Mine were not actually that far off (apart from a constant scaling factor).
So your Poacher calculation looks correct with the new weights. We are going to add a role rating in the New Year but in the meantime you can work it out yourself.
Multiply the player attribute value with the weights
e.g.
Finishing: 8.0 x 16
First Touch: 6.0 x 12
Heading: 6.0 x 11
Technique: 4.0 x 11
Anticipation: 5.0 x 9
Composure: 6.0 x 13
Decisions: 5.0 x 12
Off The Ball: 6.0 x 12
Acceleration: 10.0 x 17
Then add all of these up and divide by 56 to give you the weighted average value for that role.
