@mons don't even think about these as improvements.

I do wish you'd be a bit flexible. What's the point in having the existing cut which is so different to his current look? Just because the cut is "better"? That doesn't make a lot of sense imo. I'm sure a better source can be provided for Silva, but I will definitely consider either of the 2 cuts for inclusion in 10.0.

I remember the time when you wouldn't even consider them (just because new hair style or facial hair).Time changes... That's not something we should speak here...
I'm not telling that cuts are bad,sources are bad,and as that they shouldn't be improvements.

I'm not sure I would ever have rejected out of hand such a cut, purely because the hair style is so different. And it's not like rekooner's cut is so bad that the current MP cut is still better even with the difference in style. Even if that was the case in the past, you have to be able to change.

Ask the majority of people using the pack which cut they would prefer - is it the current MP image, which is technically very good but not representative of the player at this point in time, or is it rekooner's cut, which may not be looking 100% ahead but is otherwise a good cut and accurately displays the player at present. I'm sure the majority, including plenty of cutters and people who use our MP frequently, will prefer the latter rather than the former. The MP is not purely an exercise in producing technically perfect cuts to showcase the technical capacity of our cutters, but mostly to allow FM players to see good, recent images of players in their game. I do wish you would keep that in mind before immediately dismissing a cut or a requested source
