Subject: [youth] 20 May

Talent 4.5, excellent pull, and a great name. Too bad about the stats. Knock knock! (Now read his name out loud)

Hughes Gare, Age:19
club: Gresley Rovers, country: Canada
Value: 50 000 $, Wage: 825 $
very good (9) Form, tragic (0) Tactical discipline
height: 166

average (5) stamina, hopeless (1) keeper
adequate (6) pace, good (7) defender
tragic (0) technique, adequate (6) playmaker
poor (3) passing, unsatisfactory (2) striker

And a very good pull with <4 talent (SO says 3.33, but I would put him closer to 4 than 3). Could make a nice striker for somebody.

Regan Di Sano, Age:19
club: Gresley Rovers, country: Canada
Value: 64 000 $, Wage: 1 000 $
very good (9) Form, tragic (0) Tactical discipline
height: 178

weak (4) stamina, poor (3) keeper
excellent (10) pace, hopeless (1) defender
weak (4) technique, hopeless (1) playmaker
hopeless (1) passing, poor (3) striker

Both will be TLed.

How do you know youth talent? How does SO calculate it?
This guy came in at 8 then dropped to 7 for a few weeks. He left the academy at 10.

Marcel D'Alessandro, age: 17
club: Real Hawkes, country: Canada
value: 97 200 C$, wage: 1 520 C$
very good form, tragic tactical discipline
height: 176 cm


average stamina hopeless keeper
solid pace adequate defender
hopeless technique hopeless playmaker
unsatisfactory passing good striker

I thought that SO just used (final skill - initial skill) / weeks. But Di Sano started average and left very good aften 15 weeks, which would give 3.75 on that metric, and SO is telling me his talent is 3.33. 3.75 looks more credible to me; he's had two 4-week stretches where his graph is flat, including the last 4.

Kasim Perrault, age: 18, height: 190 cm
value: 232 400 C$, wage: 2 840 C$
club: HL Football, country: Canada
very good form, tragic tactical discipline

weak stamina, weak keeper
solid pace, very good defender
good technique, weak playmaker
solid passing, adequate striker

talented (4 weeks)
I am going to keep him

Aidan Zanardi, age: 18, height: 172 cm
value: 38 800 C$, wage: 920 C$
club: Warsaw Pact., country: Canada
very good form, tragic tactical discipline

unsatisfactory stamina, tragic keeper
average pace, adequate defender
weak technique, tragic playmaker
hopeless passing, hopeless striker

came out average.

If any of the ATT trainners want Kasim I may sell him, he looks more like an ATT than a MID.
Contact me by PM if interested.

why wouldn't you train him as a def?

Because I have at least 3 prospects that are really great for MIDs.
If someone wants to train him as DEF I can sell him, he may be a nice defender as well.

Gare and Di Sano are now on the TL.
