Subject: Weekly Training

what were you training ?

I was training technique last season, switched to stamina for 2 weeks in the off season - back to Tech for 2 weeks I think and just completed my 2nd week of pace. There has been a noticeable upturn in form though.

Defending:

21yo to Formidable
22yo to Brilliant + Incred pace

General:

19yo Mid to Good stamina
20yo Def to Good passing + average stamina
20yo Mid to Excellent passing
21yo Att to Unsat pm
25yo GK to Average tech

Plus a whole load of form increases, a good week.

and yet i will still beat you in the league :)

Really?

I wont give you any tactical advise next time!

You will most likely finish higher than me in the league though.

I put that tactic together when I was drunk one night, it's awful and it shouldn't work.

Believe me, I'm not trying to finish higher in the league than you :)

The greatest things are always made when drunk!

It's only because you lied, and said you didn't have time to create a new tactic that I didn't bother, though based on recent matches your keeper would just have saved everything.

To be fair, I really hadn't intended to make up a tactic before the wine bottle was opened. I was as surprised as you were.

Pace:
Victor Hugo Barboza, +1, now average pace
Tamas Bimbo, +1, now average pace
Dale Buxton, +1, now adequate pace
Olivier Van Moer, +1, now weak pace

General:
Olivier Van Moer, +1, now solid playmaker

Best £3 signing I ever made just look at Olivier Van Moer's before and after:

Before:

Age 19

unsat. stamina,
tragic pace, good defender
average tech, good playmaker
weak passing, average striker

Now:

Age: 20

good stamina,
weak pace, good stamina
adequate tech, solid playmaker
average passing, adequate striker.

let me guess...

is this guy, Olivier Van Moer

well done he is well talented from the looks of it

Yep Olivier Van Moer, I should play him in the first team to aid his growth, but of course it does mean a change of tactics.

pace, and a fairly busy week:

19- average
19- average
19- good
18- excellent
20- average
20- adequate
18- average
24- good tech
20- unsat pass
20- hopeless def
22- poor str
21-good str

pace

randoms
17yo unsat defence
21yo average defence

thats all folks!!!

Passing:

20yo to excellent
18yo to adequate
20yo to very good

Randoms:

20yo to formidable def

Nice random but otherwise a slow week. Makes up for the bumper week I had last week!

pace:

19y solid & stamina plop to good
24y good

19y average tech
18y adequate PM & hopeless passing
24y very good defender

passing:

excellent
formidable
average

Edit: you wait 7 seasons for a consecutive week pops and then you get 2 in 2 weeks
England prospect Dudley Inns just managed /-// in passing to reach average. Not bad for a 20 year old
