When is the best time to sell them? When they're 21?

Keepers have a longer career span and you'll get more for them at a more mature age. It comes down to their experience level. But a solid keeper coming out of your academy with a solid coach can potentially be at Magnificent level with Solid passing by the time he's 21.

I bought an outstanding keeper age 20 for just over 3m, he's now 22 and worth a little under 5m according to TC.

I've been training my keeper since he was solid.

He is now magnificent. 20yrs / 40days.

Playing team above me. Had two brilliant defenders go off before 25mins - one to injury, one to suspension.

Went down 1-3, but pegged them back to 3-3 in the 84th and won it in the 86th. :D \:d/ \:d/

Won 10-0 against a bot team. One of my strikers scored 4 goals, shooting him to the top of the league in goals.

Train him for set pieces or passing and his value will go up HEAPS if you plan to sell.

I won 6-0 today. Striker scored a hattrick, putting him on level pegging with first for the golden boot. Second by virtue of goals:games ratio.

I know set-pieces and defending is a valuable skill for a Keeper to have, but does passing really have that great an effect on their value?

A couple of my PM trainees should pop to Outstanding soon. Probably before they turn 19 too.

Afro.
I'll change to that once he pops again.

Passing is good for all players. Passing makes about 0.5% difference in a players contribution. Defending will make around 2-3% difference and SP will make 3-4% difference.

I knew Passing was important - which is why my IM trainees have passable or higher passing - but i thought everything but keeper, defending and set-pieces were relatively worthless on keepers.

Things like scoring, wing, etc doesn't score at all. The other three stats I mentioned are the only ones that contribute to his overall ability other than keeping, experience, form and stamina.

Defending [Form=High]=12.09
Defending [Form=Average]=12.13
Defending [Form=Low]=12.17

JUST FUCKING POP YOU CUNT!!

I just want to sell him so I can buy some new wingers and a new striker.

Bump.

Got a 20 year old with excellent scoring and passable defending on sale for 500k if anyone's interested.

Also, next week should have a 21 year old brilliant defender for sale too. Perhaps 2 of them if I'm lucky.

is it too late to participate in the 442 league for this game? i'm thinking about signing up

The 442 comp lost interest this season, but I'm guessing it might start up again next season. By the way, there are 2 weeks of the season left. One more game of regular season then qualifiers the following week.

My two best trainees:

18 years and 75 days, TSI = 5 770
In solid form, inadequate stamina. [Technical]
Has disastrous experience and inadequate leadership abilities.

Keeper:----1/20 disastrous
Defending:-------3/20 poor
Playmaking:10/20 outstanding
Winger:----------3/20 poor
Passing:------6/20 passable
Scoring:----5/20 inadequate
Set pieces:-------4/20 weak

18 years and 66 days, TSI = 4 170
In passable form, weak stamina.
Has wretched experience and passable leadership abilities.

Keeper:------1/20 disastrous
Defending:---------4/20 weak
Playmaking:10/20 outstanding
Winger:------------3/20 poor
Passing:-------6/20 passable
Scoring:-------2/20 wretched
Set pieces:--------4/20 weak

The rest of my trainees are around 17 yo, and are either Excellent, or Formidable with passable/solid passing.

I haven't had a pop in ages...forgot to set a friendly for last week too...need to ff-load a defender who isnt' doing shit all for me.

How old?
What skill?
How much?

20 years old, on the verge of popping to magnificent. I'll kick things off at 3m.

My youth league matches end next week. Is there a forum league I can join?!

There would have been, but our season just started up again.

Once again...
   Defending [Form=High]=12.11
Defending [Form=Average]=12.15
Defending [Form=Low]=12.18

That fucking defender :evil: this is the second time!

Fortunately, my star defender popped to World Class :)

I have 2 of those this week. Very irritating.

Can someone tell me how long does a player have to be in my squad before I can make him my coach?

1 season. (14 weeks)

Just looked at my hattrick team. My midfield are getting around in wheelchairs :lol:

:lol: My squad is older than I'd like too.

First team:
22 x2
23 x2
24 x 5
25 x 1
26 x1

I don't have a first team player older than 24. The downside to that being an obvious lack of experience which can be costly to performances.

Solution: NT players \:d/ Brush is 23 and has excell XP :D
