Subject: Weekly Training

I trained striker and got a fill-in trainee to pop to average striking. General stamina pop. That's pretty much it. However, some of my juniors are starting to get interesting.

trained pace, got the big week I expected, except the ONE guy I needed and expected to pop didn't. Grrrrrrrrr.

So one more week of pace next week.

Good week. Trained pace.

Pace +7
Tech +1
Def +1
PM +1

Hey guys, I have a question related to training. Can goalie's Goalkeeping increase through just playing games or do you have to train him Goalkeeping in order to increase?

I've got a very good goalie last season from my youth team, his Goalkeeping is 11, Passing is 9. He is 19 now, so I wonder should I put my training to GK in order to get it up more, or can I train my other players and have his skills improve through playing. My previous goalie didn't improve his Goalkeeping through just playing games, so my concern is that this might happen with him too if I don't train him Goalkeeping.

goal keeping will increase gradually just like the other skills. My keeper popped a level late last season.

Mine also popped a level as well. I am sure at a much slower pace than if you trained it direct.

Yeah my pop took several seasons. Course it would take less time if I had a better keeper coach, age was lower, and skill was lower.

trained striker, No trained pops, but a couple general

Form +14
Tact +4
Stam -1
Pass +1
Stri +2

trained passing. 2 pops, not expecting much this week or next week. got a pace pop I 'was' expecting on one of my defenders who was the last one to pop. couple stamina pops, otherwise, ho hum.

Not expecting major things next week either, as no one is really 'due' to pop that I'm aware of.

Trained tech. Got 5 pops. Including Jarhead and #1 def/mid to outstanding and my #1 forward to brilliant. No random pops, though.

trained pace.
