Like the manager above me stated, there is no correlation between draftees and what league you are in.

Wow - I assumed draftees in higher divisions started with higher skills. I see 25 year-olds on the market who are "marvelous" in multiple skills. My 5-star draftee will be 65 before I can train him like that. I guess I'm doing it wrong!
Thanks for the replies.

Is ur trainee this guy?

Kyle Rasmussen

if not, then he should be! haha.

So i would suggest contacting someone from USA forums, grab a mentor, perhaps someone from U21 forums/group, and they should be able to give you some advice about training.

if you dont mind, what level is your trainer? and what is the focus of your training on your 5 star draftee?

My trainer is lvl 4, and seems to be doing an adequate job. I usually get at least one pop each week. I think my problem is I'm trying to train too many players. I want a balanced team, and so far, that's working just fine in Div. V. But probably not once I'm promoted.

So I'm trying to narrow the focus of training to 4-5 key players, young with high potential. Like my 5-star draftee!

So I'm assuming if I want a team loaded with "marvelous" players, I train a couple and buy the rest? (Over several seasons.)

we seem to have the same approach, i got 9 young talents ranging from 19 to 22 year olds who i alternate training ( 4 players ) a week, and so far i like the pace of their progress with also a level 4 trainer

i think we can stay with that lineup if we are in the lower leagues, ( i am in my country's division 4 league) and currently am 12-1 and 2nd place in my conference. I plan to still stay in this league upto next season, when my core players gets their skill set to at least the 8 to 9 level average. Currently i have an 85k weekly economy and 385k in the bank due mainly to my 6 cup wins this season. I have built up my arena to about 6600 and planning to add 400 more seats before the season ends.


good for you you have a 5 star draftee to anchor your team, if ever i get promoted to league 3 in 2 seasons time, i plan to tank to get a 5 star draftee like yours, then spend another season in league 4 before finally promoting up the ranks til i reach division 2.

promoting , training , arena building and building your economy IMO is one step backward, 2 steps forward.

yep.

Honestly, if you are new-ish to the game, try focusing on 1-2 players. Its really REALLY difficult to train 4-5 players all at once.

Some training concepts which might help you.

- Single position training is bar far, the most effective. Running 2-position Pressure/Passing/OD training is pretty much a waste of time.
- 48 minutes each week in the position to get full training. The difference between 40 mins vs 48 mins is massive, its not a linear scale, its logorithmic. That is, 40 mins is like, 65% of full training (or something like that).
- Younger trainee's train WAY faster than older trainee's. You will notice a significant drop off at 21, and then again about 25.

Hope this helps.

Thanks! One more question about training: I know for game shape I need to get about 60-70 minutes to pop, or even avoid losing a point of GS. Do you also get optimal training for hitting that level of minutes? I know you need 48+, but is training effectiveness also improved if you hit the "sweet spot" of around 65 minutes? (And yes, I know that number can vary depending on stamina and age.)
Thanks!
