higher TSP DOES NOT raise training speed, it cannot. It is starting ahead, it doesn:t make you run faster.

My point was more that if you can add 90 skills to a player, then you need a 70ish start to get to 158 and there are actual examples of 158 TSP players (before even considering sublevels), but I agree that my statements on elastic effect were incorrect.

all 5s trains the EXACT same speed as all 6s. That is the logic you are trying to gloss over here. Its a mistake. elastic and CT effect are calculated RELATIVELY, not absolutely.

I just checked and that's correct.

IM not against more pops/faster training etc. I just don:t think we should lie or overexagerate the state of things.

Ok 9-10 seasons for 90 pops is not a lot. We can agree on that. 90 pops with the right initial skillset produces elite/very good players (SF).

Now let's move on though. 90 pops and 130 TSP is only possible on high potential players. This is one of the reasons why for better or worse people are adverse to train low potential players. The reasoning that you can train lower potential to sell players and make money (to spend on players) is only applicable to those who have a trading attitude (and are not in top or very competitive leagues) and use that cash to buy their core of players. Like Gm-Nik0 said that's the 'tycoon' attitude, build, upgrade, expand. This is not for everyone and this is also actively discouraged through the Overextension Tax mechanism. Hrudey for example is one of many who grow attached to the result of their efforts. These people will not train to trade and any manager training a SF for himself will want to get those 80-90 pops, if he can, so he would not take and train Star potential, for example.

Ultimately they way to make lower potential players more appealing has to be something else and possibly directly related to the potential itself.
