There's no concrete number, but I wouldn't creep over 80 or so.

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

And what about the minimum? When does a negative effect kick in at the lower end?

I'd say around 40ish or so, but that's more of a guess than anything.

with the 40 minutes that Juicepaths said you are prety safe.
I'd dare to say it's even less. I've had around 30 players for a long while, and back then I also divided my minutes quite evenly among most of them, it never hurt the form of the players much if they only played 35 minutes or so but just not every week. If your player plays 45 minutes this week, and 32 minutes next week it's very well possible he stays strong in his shape, the week after that however I'd make sure he gets 45 minutes at least, if not he''ll start to go down...

So I'd say 40 minutes weekly, with possible dips of at least 30 minutes, given he gets enough minutes next week...

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

When they changed the stamina at the end of Season 2 (so that lack of minutes had no effect on stamina), it was indicated that the range of minutes for maintaining GS had been broadened a bit. So I think maybe 40-90 will maintain, and a little bit outside won't be too harmful. You probably can't build GS up playing 30 every week, but it might not drop too much. On the other hand if a player is only targetted to getting 30 every week, there's going to be weeks when he gets 20.

Talking about minutes. I think i was sure that overplaying a player would not effect his training, but I'm not sure anymore. Does anyone know from experience that will effect the training? or just the gameshape.

Just game shape.

Once a player hits 48 minutes it's full training.

Well I thought id done well this week to get everyone under 90mins... sadly 2 of my 87's went down to average when 2 players with 85 went up to strong..

So if I can I will be attempting to give my scrubs a bit more this week (despite Cup draw away to last seasons PO QFist) and give my first team 75-80.....

Can someone blow this theory out of the water...

Is it the combined total of minutes or could it be the amount of games someone featured in... ie 4x21mins or 2x42.. are you 100% certain this would give the same GS result?

My cup game was against another D.III team, on the road and it went to 2OT, so I had lots of minutes.

75,79, and 80 to strong.

48,53,64,67, and 101 at respectable.

87 to average.

0, 0, 11, and 106 to mediocre.

So 100+ is not necessarily bad, but it can be.
