That's a 5-4-1 with 3 inner midfielders. The inadequate midfielder is in solid form and has solid experience so it makes him at least passable in reality.
Im waiting for my inner mids to pop to exellent stamina though so this weekend it will be two solid and an exeellent in there with a solid winger instead of an exellent one cause he is low on form! Same with one of my defenders Im gonna have to play a passable one this weekend!Quote:

My keeper is due to pop to excellent any week now!
Nice team! How much do formidable defenders go for? Trainig is really paying off for you! Have you made a big profit on it or are ya holding onto your defenders?Quote:

Problem is I bought him for quite a lot when I joineed as I didn't know what I was doing. I signed him at 19 so he is 21 now. You're talking about a good 11 or 12 weeks for a pob at this stage.Quote:

I have two lads who were inadequate defenders when I signed them for 1k each and they are both excellent plus a bit now. Not sure when I will sell them. They have no secondaries.
It really does payoff to have a good defence. It is really hard to score on me and despite being only the 3rd best team last year I conceded the least goals. It's rock hard for me to score though as I only play 1 striker. I need to play 5 defenders to maximise training and have to play 4 midfielders to keep possession up.
De Town when you go to train playmaking again sign 17 year olds with good secondaries even if they only have inadequate playmaking.
Yeah. Which 1 I dont know yet.Quote:

Not at the moment. I plan to buy some though and train them up.Quote:
Do you have trainees
Yeah, I know. This is my 3rd full season starting on Sunday and I havent got a proper training system going for outfield players. Disgraceful :oQuote:

At the moment I am chasing an Irish fullback 17 year old trainee with passable winger to fill the void left by my last sale. I have got a decent trainee programme in place and hopefully it will pay off.Quote:

Defence is easiest to start into as secondaries are not too important and you can keep your midfield the most important part without having to bring in trainees.Quote:

PS will you be going for top place this season??
DE TOWN has your stamina training paid off??
