Even with 80 active users it is possible to build a good roster. Of course the best players and young players must be raised and followed well otherwise the work would be in vain.
My commitment is also in this sense, in reawakening interest in the u21 team that has been too often put on the sidelines lately.
I have read your posts and there is no doubt that creating an active forum is an important step in recreating the interest of the community.
Let's say that part of the void that the previous mandates may have created can be filled with intelligent tactics and study of the opponents ... then in perspective you have to start training again at your best

Thank you for your answer.

In my mind, the training in itself is not an issue, player still get trained, but rather the fact that only the U21 manager knows what he has, and can guide managers to shape a coherent roster. When Cletus contacted me, my first question was "what do you need, I can train him like this or like that". Without guidance, you can end up with 4 great SG but no decent PG, 5 well rounded SF but no real big players, etc.

Yes of course, the fundamental thing in addition to the training itself is to develop players to have 3/4 for each position and choose from game to game based on form and opponent/tactics.
Obviously for example if we were full of Centers some shorter players would have to be converted into guards/plays and/or vice versa
