Essentially, if you want to view more attributes of players, then a higher attribute value is required in each category. This isn’t applicable if you play with attribute masking switched off since all attributes of players are made available to you, but for those of you who use attribute masking, then you can improve the known attributes of players by adjusting the Player Knowledge and Youngster Knowledge attribute values.

When creating your Managerial Style, you have two Mental Attributes for increasing the level of detail available to you in the attribute values on a players profile: Player Knowledge and Youngster Knowledge.
