I always set them as starter, backup and reserve. This works in all the cases but 2:
1) If you are winning by a blowout and there are players in the selected roster that are not assigned a role.
In this case, if your player x has not been assigned any role, he will play the last minutes for your trainee.
My solution is to always select as many players as I need. No more. So I select the normal starters and subs. And I select the trainee.
If monoposition, your selection should be (max.) 9 players. 4 starters + their subs and your trainee.
If you train for 2 positions, it should be 8. The trainees should be starter, backup and reserve at their respective positions.
2) If your trainee commits 6 fouls. Nothing to do here, it happens :(. If your trainee makes 6 fouls every week, try to train his Defensive skills first, he will commit lesser fouls. (I think I read this somewhere in a C trainee guide).
Edit: Of course the substitutions setting in tactics has to be: Follow Depth Chart
