he cost me 24k. I thought that was ok due to be 19 and having a good playmaker is important, and his wage isnt that bad.

 

[Hong Kong Blue]

Are taking MrB's advice and train playmaking then?

If so not a bad first trainee. Playmakers need to have stamina and its nice that he has inadequate defending. Head speciality is one of the better specialities to have as well. Hunt around and you should be able to pick up your remaining trainees cheaper than that.

I'd look for 18 year old passable playmakers (solid will be more expensive and you can quickly train them to that level anyway) with a high TSI. With a bit of luck you should be able to sign a few for about £1,000 each.

Once you have sorted out your trainees, resist the temptation to enter the transfer market. The key to success in this game is patience and long-term planning.

 

[Birri]

He is fine if you cant afford all passables as HK blue said and you still need one or 2 trainees you can go for 17 yr old inadequate Playmaking with passable/Solid passing who should be cheap it just means you need to train them an extra season but if they are 17 it won't matter.

 

[fredheim_holm]

Thanks.

 

[Hong Kong Blue]

Good call Birri.

In fact I'd try and include at least one inadequate PM, passable/solid passing as a trainee.

this guy what u are talking about?

17 year old player

[MrB]

Yep, low stamina but that can be worked upon later.

 

[fredheim_holm]

what do u reckon my limit should be for this guy?

considering i have 44,000 and have only just started. (ill get some money from the challenges, ive still got 11 + 14 and the 10 above that)

 

[MrB]

At 17 you may be looking at about 20 or 30k. Wouldn't go much higher.

 

[Birri]

I wouldn't go above 20k for him you should be able to find others like him if he does

 

[Hong Kong Blue]

Limit should be about £3,000 IMHO.

My youth pulls never sell for more than that. I had an 18yo passable striker with inadequate passing who has twice failed to get signed despite being listed for free.

 

[MrB]

Yes but it's early season and he's 17. They always go for a bit more. May as well stick with 18yos really as the extra week won't notice that much and they'll be dirt cheap.

 

[fredheim_holm]

cheers.

I have another question, sorry to be a bore.

Erm do players years go up in normal years, or in seasons, ie. every 16 weeks or whatever it is, they change from 17-18 and so on.

 

[Hong Kong Blue]

They all age at the end of the season, ie in about 14 weeks time.

 

[fredheim_holm]

thanks.

 

[fredheim_holm]

just made my second signing as you guys have kindly recommended.

bad for 8k eh?

 

[Birri]

Good signing if you only train him up to formidable he will be worth 200k+

 

[fredheim_holm]

cool thanks. erm,
a) how do i join a fan club or something? am i getting the wrong end of the stick, or is there a group that you can associate with, ie. Southend Fans, or SZ users?

b) is it worth me hiring a spokesperson?

 

[Birri]

You want to get 10 spokespersons if you can afford it they make money for you.

To join groups you need to pay for hattrick supporter its about £14 for 12 months.

 

[fredheim_holm]

ok cheers and ill get a spokesperson and forget the groups.
