i have a couple:

Melvin Bodner, age 18 (3.5 talent)
value: 252 000 $, wage: 1 825 $
unearthly form


John Ralph, age 17 (3.5 week talent)
value: 114 250 $, wage: 1 350 $
formidable form

Ken Radzinsky, age 16 (between 3.1-4.9 talent)
value: 30 000 $, wage: 600 $
solid form

im selling Ralph after this season 100%, so if anybody wants him then, let me know

it seems they haven't found a home yet, those 13 (maybe less, waiting on Barndog) players will not be sold until they are at least 26 yo. They are being trained for the USA and not proffit.

Goals (approximate):

Strikers: 3 X Divine plus decent tertiary skills
Defendef: 2 X Divine plus 3 X Incredible
Defensive Midfielders: 3 X Magical plus 2 X Brilliant
Center MID: 2 X Unearthly, 3 X Brilliant
Wingers: 3 X Magical plus 2 X Brilliant

That would nice!

those goals are too high i think...

I very highly doubt I'll sell any of the 5 so you can count them all.

I don't know what position you'd want to classify Conway and Workman as. I basically train all of my defenders and mids together. They're probably more suited to center mids for now, but will get plenty of defending later on. In the end they'll probably be able to play any mid position as I like balanced guys that can play in several spots.

I know they are, but we'll shoot for the stars and land on the moon :)

On the other hand they might be reached if we take the players to 26yo. We've seen 2X divine players that are only 23 yo

by the time im done with dillard he'll be 1x divine 3x brilliant

I'll commit to Cal until he is 26.

Cal Clinton, age: 20
value: 469 000 $, wage: 3 450 $
country: USA


solid stamina, tragic keeper
formidable pace, adequate defender
formidable technique, excellent playmaker
brilliant passing, adequate striker

are you going to make him a winger or a central mid?

Next up for him is a couple or 3 levels of PM, which he needs the most.

Then I would like to see his Pace matching or bettering his current passing, so I assume that would be a Winger.

do you plan to train his defending up?

let me know when you start to sell John Ralph and I'll think about picking him up.

Explain to me why it matters if we train elite players to sell again? (versus keeping them)

I mean, if you sell an elite player at 24, it's not like he's going to be off the US NT radar.

He won't be as good as he will be if you train him for 2 more seasons.
