Dyson Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Lewis Speller is a potential superstar. Just you wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostophe Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Seeing as his last match rating was a pitiful 2, which was against Dom, I doubt it. He has until the end of the season. If he doesn't go up to 5 in the Change Report, he's gone. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haden Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Don't leave me hanging J7! You helped me move up the table I took out a relegation rival! Still Happenstance and Cube are two of my fave managers so hope you both recover soon. Well not Happenstance really as you are safe from relegation and my 4th place rival!

Cube Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Is the whole youth player thing totally random? My last two have both had a skill of 2 and yet I've seen people get 5 and beyond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostophe Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I think the overall strength of your team depends on how good the youth players you get will be. One other team I have, with an overall strength of 6, has never got any decent youth players: 18/19 year-olds with a skill of 3. Whereas my main X11 team, with an overall strength of 7, got a few 17 year-olds with a skill of 4 in recent months (which I promptly sold for good money.) But you're likely to get a youth player who is really good regardless of your team's strength. Like Paul McGrath in my squad: I got him as a 17 year-old with a skill of 4 when my team's strength was 6. He's now 21 and a skill of 8. Oddy just got an 18 year-old keeper with a skill of 5.

jayseven Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I just spent 406k on a 20 yr old defender with 5 skill, only to get a talent in the youth team - a defender, 19, with 5 skill, and my second youth offer thing in a week, and third in a fortnight... I think I need to find someone to sack in order to squeeze this bad boy onto my squad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haden Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Retirement news out today cause my club is so good everyone wants to stay. Others have not been so lucky! I have one thing to say to Nial Helleday from Team Cubed Sorry man that is pretty horrendous news I just couldn't help myself! Happenstance the other casualty but all the guys leaving him look like losers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 This game hates me. I leave some players alone for training because they're old and useless and instead the player I spend most my time on leaves during his second season... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayseven Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I've had just the one retirement; a 7-skilled defender aged 36, so it's understandable. a 34- and 35-year old stuck around though, and I've just acquired two 5-skilled defenders that'll more than replace the loss in a couple of seasons. I'm quite pleased with my squad now. Lots of promising youth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Only loss for me thats a shame is Carl-Evert Werner, otherwise I didnt do too badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dyson Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Jesus christ , the only player leaving is my 35 year old keeper. My 38 year old striker is staying on til next season, which is awesome. Shame to see my GK leave, had him from the start, he's a legend within the club. Gold heart and everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roostophe Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Albin Kastlander's retiring. Shame, he's been good for me since I got him. 26 goals in 50 games is decent. I expected my 35 year-old defender to retire, but no. That's good, though, it means I keep my main three defenders for another season while Staunton and Sakurai develop.

Happenstance Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I still half expect to get relegated one of these seasons as more and more I have to bring in youth players to keep the squad fresh. Im suprised how well I did for the first half of the season considering I played quite a few youth players to get them games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I've lost Christopher Dodds and Mark Rutherglen. Dodds was my main goalkeeper for many moons and has been with me from the start, shame to see him go. Not bothered about Rutherglen at all 'cos he's crap. I have had him since the start though too.
