Was that guy really bought for $70000 on the transfer list?

at the time I bought him he had a 2,6k wage and 70k was quite expensive back then, I had to bidwar him from 25k to 70k.

best players in the game would leave for 200k or so

I remember having set a 100k limit for him, I thought it wouldn't be worth more than that, guess my bidding opponents thought he wouldn't even be worth 70k+

and he hadn't gorgeous skills at that time either, he was mediocre at Inside Defense, Inside Shooting and Rebounding. You could probably find a pretty cheap guy with those skills at the beginning of the season, when people throw their rejected draftees into the market all at the same time and prices fall quite a lot.

You are training only one position (2-3 trainees), right?

I am pretty sure he is rotating the training on Inside Shot, Inside Defense and Rebounding.

Rotating the training is faster than training a single skill, because the level of the secondary skills affects the training.

Well, it's impossible to train rebound on only C, so eventually I train 4 or 5 trainees. But yes the focus is upon 3 players (Eddy Mathiot, 2,26, bought at the beginning of Season 3; Octav Carbunaru, 2,21, bought mid-season in season 3 and Claudião Carretel, 2,16, drafted in season 4).

And Raonne is right, I rotate between IS, ID and RB, I haven't trained the same skill 2 weeks in a row for the last 2 seasons. I've trained IS and ID alternately for 4 weeks, and RB on the 5th, because I figured that way Eddy and Octav would get a pop a week in the first 4 weeks and then with high sublevel at rebounding they would also get a pop at the 5th week. That's why both of them pop every single week. I'm unsure what the matchup against Iranildo Agreste, from Pandas would be like, considering he is better skilled in rebounding than Octav and Eddy (though they're not poorly skilled either), but I guess we'll have to wait until I get to 1st division to see how it goes.
