Inconsistent winger ratings in Genie Scout 26g

There seems to be a significant mismatch between the general rating and the role rating

Hello,

I am using Genie Scout 26g and I have noticed a consistent discrepancy when it comes to wide players / wingers.

The issue is that the player’s general rating, such as Best Potential Rating or the AML/AMR rating, is often higher than the rating shown when I click into the player profile and review the specific role ratings for that position.

For example, a player may be listed as 87% as a winger, but when I open the player and check his roles on that position, his best winger role may only be rated around 81–82%. This is despite the player having 20 for positional familiarity/suitability in that position.

This was not the case in previous versions of Genie Scout. There seems to be a significant mismatch between the general rating and the role rating, and in most cases the role rating is noticeably lower once I open the player’s profile. This appears to affect wingers in particular.

Could you please check whether this is a bug or an intended change?
That is strange, but one thing that got me confused before was the GS will put best position with a name that can be confused with a role which happens to have same name.

Got player who can play in AM (RL) GS says his best current rating is as 59.1% (W) all this tells me is that his attributes using GS rating system make him a suitable player for either AM (R) or AM (L) but looking at his positional rating AM (L) is 59.1% and AM (R) is 58.2%.

I'm not sure if GS takes into account his strong feet or not, but he has more positional points in AM (L) than on AM (R).

Once you then go into the roles he could play in as a AM (L) the percentages there do not match the 59.1% but still shows which of the roles the player is best suited for.
