Wow. Very nice starting squad.

Mistfit · 11-04-2006, 05:00

Tubs is thinking of training PM... I have been trying to talk him out of it for a number of reasons...

1.) he is strongest already at the IM spot
2.) PM ain't what it used to be
3.) keeper training only takes 2 trainees and offers all of the formations to play with

what do you guys think?

Kemal · 11-04-2006, 09:35

Wow, have your players mutated after the meltdown to obtain these skills, or what?

Very nice starting squad, after a few stamina trainings you'll have some great inner mids, so from that point of view I agree with Mistfit here. The real reason though I'd say keeper training is best for starting teams, is because a full set of reasonable trainees for any of the other training types is unaffordable for new teams. You definitely do now want inadequates or passables on training positions these days, or so I think..

bed_head7 · 11-04-2006, 09:55

Agreed. I rather wish I had started off with keeper training at the beginning, because even with advice from CDZ people, I still made a few stupid blunders in setting up my PM training program that has delayed my progress. Keeper training is harder to screw up too badly, and gives you a chance to get a feel for the game.

Shabbaman · 11-04-2006, 10:13

Or you could do the stamina gambit

No, seriously, keeper training is indeed the easiest. It's really easy to change training when you're done with it as well. But on the long term I agree with the PM training.

Tubby Rower · 11-04-2006, 12:35

I'll get together with my advisors (in my head) and come up with a preliminary starting squad. I'll post it here when I'm done

BCLG100 · 11-04-2006, 12:40

the HO! thing really helps make sure you've got that

Tubby Rower · 11-04-2006, 13:29

yeah, but I'd like to try it without programs so that I understand what's going on and why

This is what I've come up with

[u]Forward 
Frank Fontaine - inadequate Stamina, PM, Winger, & Scoring [Head]
<s>Carl Hutdhison - inadequate PM & Scoring</s>
Josh Godwin - solid passing, passable stamina, inadequate scoring

[u]Midfielders 
Ricky Fleming - really good [Head]
<s>Anthony Pederson - solid PM & inadequate passing [Technical]</s>
John Linehan - solid PM, passable stamina, inadequate scoring and set pieces

[u]Wings
Francis Hand - passable winger, inadequate PM, & Solid set pieces [Powerful]
Eric Meyers - inadequate PM, Winger, & passing & Solid set pieces

[u]Defense
Hud Parnell - passable stamina, inadequate passing and defense
Eduardo Palacios - solid defending, passable PM, inadequate passing [Quick]

[u]Wing Back
Garrett Dow - solid passing, inadequate winger & defending, passable set pieces
Rob Riddle - passable defending, inadequate winger [Powerful]

[u]Goal Keep
Isidoro Alvarado - inadequate keeper

EDIT:: changes made per Kemal's suggestions

BCLG100 · 11-04-2006, 13:40

See what you mean, could then open it up and see whether what you think would be best is actually what the computer says is best.
