thanks, it looks like they just changed the format. the games were supposed to be played on the 22nd. I have a time listed now as well.

Admin - please close this topic now.

well that is Sk time.
So the game will be on the 22 here in US.

basically is the same time as per the Cup games.

the other day it was originally listed as the 22nd on the game clock which would have been the 21st USA time, a day ahead of our Cup matches.

Now the date is changed and the time has been added, so we should be good to go now.

The other matches do that as well, its not limited to just the juniors.

We have had our junior matches. It was quite noticable at how poor the players were, and I think you'll find its a good test of managers tactical skills. make sure you set a side for this....lots of people in England forgot.

Not sure what you mean by "set a side"


I would like to add. I set all of my back ups as defenders. I figured whats the point, I just put them in the order I would want them to come into the match.

A lot of managers did not set a team for the game.....because its the first junior team there is no previous match....therefore if you do not set a team then you field NIL players. Does that make sense now?

As for orders...its a tough one as you do not know what your players are like, however if you set different orders you maybe able to see their skills a little easier? For example one of my mids from tonight must have tragic passing and pace as he was awful!

Ok, just hadn't heard it called that before.

You say Tomato I say Tomatoe. ;)

How high a level are your juniors?

These are most of the guys who played, no real superstars. I know Baillie is not a defender though as he got 1.5 stars only.

Jonathon Shannon 19 excellent outfield 1
Bill Chan 19 excellent outfield 1
Marmaduke Julian 17 very good outfield 1
Leo Hind 20 outstanding outfield 1
Shawn Bartram 19 very good outfield 8
Matty Baillie 19 excellent outfield 9
Shawn Caig 17 adequate outfield 11
Gerard Bayles 18 solid outfield 14
Gareth Bonner 19 solid GK 14
Zachary Bisdu 17 solid outfield 19
Thomas Dallimore 18 very good outfield 20
Ken Truman 18 solid outfield 23

I won my game with official score 5:0 as my opponent didn't set up the lineup, which sucks cause I didn't see my players in action.

The question is will my youth coach be able to estimate their skills more accurately after this game even though they didn't play? How is the engine set up?

It appears that way. Several of my juniors went down (red) in level after the match.
