I would really welcome clarifying what CAREER EXTENSION speciality do. It just can´t be coincidence that every time i have 33yo player he looses 2 OD skills on his first week!!! I have never seen more than 2 pops on 33yo player so this is maximum punishment - 2 ODs. It just can´t be possible that it happens to my players all the time!!!!! Why the hack do we have career extension why in hell can´t it help me ONCE not to have 2OD drops in forst week of 33 years!

Ha. I have career extension and got 2 double drops today too. Not OD, or 33yr olds though. In my case a 36 and 37 yr old in 2 different skills...

Hoping nothing has changed with the speed old players drop skills, in general I thought last season it wasn't tooo bad.

Um, nope. You're wrong here.

From the manual, in as plain / direct language as you'd like:

"Career Extension: Older players will not experience skill drops as frequently."

Taping injuries = the speciality that affects injuries.

Since this is not really a thread that belongs in the bugs forum, I'll give an answer and then close.

The CE specialty actually prevents a certain percentage of skill drops. It does not affect the amount of the skill drops. So, teams with a CE specialty trainer lose skills more rarely than other teams.
