Subject: NT Players

I'm intrigued on this one. I myself have taken a bit of a stance recently to actively not reveal skills of players who may/may not be of NT standard to NTs that aren't England. Some may see this as potentially morally wrong, but it's what I have been doing (not that I have many non English players). Just wondering where other people stand. I do wonder sometimes if it is just generally game disdain from playing this for so long that gives me more anti nt sentiments than some would have.

I've never really had this problem. I mean I've had an NT winger - my best player I've ever had, triple divine I think - be injured for a weeks on international duty.

I think it's nice to get, but more specifically train a player to NT standard. I'm sure my tact would change on this if I were a top team with several NT players because it would happen more often.

When you can't bring through [because they are not good enough for your level] afford or get your own national team players, and you want top young players, you can't do much else but buy other national U21 or future U21 players.

I'd love to have say 4 in the starting 11 that came through my Junior school & a majority of English players so 6 minimum, it's not been possible for me yet.

On the other side of it, for the main team i have 1 in the main team, he plays for South Africa so not a threat to us, and polish players that won't make it so i am not really helping the older players for the main teams, i wouldn't want to hurt us nor would i give out skills if we could meet them.
