Chemistry not important IMO.
especially if the player have high pace stat
Yup, if your player is good enough then chemistry is not that important. That's why I recommend you use good wingers and strikers instead. LM/RM formations this year is really terrible since crossing is so nerfed.

Have you experienced EA handicaps before? There is a difference between a player moving naturally and being redundant in scripted matches. Chemistry cards are quite useless tbh, even with perfect chemistry and boosted attributed, if you are being a victim of scripting, your players will be sluggish and slower than your opponent.
7 chemistry is not bad, but it's not perfect either. At times the player will be natural in terms of movements and attributes, at times they will be sluggish. Ideally, there's another way to get a full chem on your winger. Before starting, keep an unwanted player in the starting eleven and put your winger on the bench. Right after kick off, make a sub and bring in the player you want and he will get a full chemistry. It's like a bug but it does work, tried it many times with players from other leagues and positions to blend with the team.
Regarding handicap, i have no comment on it. Only feel that it's mostly lag that causes problems. You get a split second delay with your input and that might make your pass go astray and your "sluggish" feeling. If handicap is such an issue then those really good players with god teams will never have such a good record.
And your so called "handicap" usually affect the whole team and not only on the player with 7 chem. That is a separate issue.
Not really. The formula for chemistry for substituting does take into account player position. So winger in ST will suffer penalty too if you sub them on.
The formula:
QUOTE
How is substitute chemistry calculated?
Substitutes do NOT inherit the chemistry value of the replaced player.
Formula to calculate substitute in-game chemistry: (Team Chemistry / 11) - x
where x is an unknown variable if the substitute is placed anywhere but the correct position (see position values above).
