Hi, I couldn't find anything here about it, so here comes my question:

Has anybody done a study on how many drops per season can we expect from players aged 32+?

Something like (using totally random numbers):

32 -> 2 drops
33 -> 2.6 drops
34 -> 3.3 drops

and so on.

I know higher skills tend to drop faster so the rate of skill decrease is not the same for all same-aged players, but it would be interesting to find something more consistent to rely on while thinking about recurring to old players as eventual reinforcements.

You cannot drop at age 32, I'd love to see a study of this with career extension, but it's probably been done before.

In the past I've got players they drop 7 8 skills with 33y, and players that drop 2 skills with 35 years.
This part of the game is really unbalanced, luck I guess or whatever..

This is where we hold them!

At the moment I have an 33y old player, and I have a career extension coach, he already got 7 drops.

Unfair - next lvl.

Yes, that's what I'm talking about, and they should make something to fix this.
Now its just luck I guess.

Nah it's luck I guess...
On the other side i have a player with the same age, he got 1 drop this season.
I got a player 1 year older, 34y, he got 2 skill drops.
So there is no logic at all.

Would be nice if they could fix this in some way.
