???

players with 23-24 years in NT teams can have pop ups every week....
and no it doesn't have anything to do with them being in NT
I personally would train even a 26 year old if he has potential and my NT needs him, and I know people that do, and they get pop ups....

And I haven't really noticed a huge difference between 19 and 20... I'd sooner say I saw no difference...

Really a 26 yo?

I think my limit would be around 25, but if someone with your experience says its still valuable to train them past that age then i'd consider it.

The thing is i would be more likely to get another trainee by the time my main one is 25, considering my backup/s would be maybe a year older/younger.

But i'm currently training a player i hope will make it to the NT team one day, so i'm training him for the long term and am concentrating on his secondaries now rather than his big man skills as they are easier to train now and big man skills can be trained later as he is tall. By long term i mean the proper NT team not the U21, although it would be nice if he made it in the U21 team :)

Sadly his potential will limit him to only a few more years of training. P.Allstar btw

I didn't say a 26 years old is valuable to train, I said I'd train him if it was for my NT
I know that this season an old player from our NT, 25 years old (well last season) or 26, had 3 popups

but I generally wouldn't train past 24

then again, depends on your goals and league and everything

It depends whether you want to create a monster or a MONSTER!!!!!!!

With the players 23-26 likely to be your key starters I would say that giving a couple of them training on secondaries can be useful. I wouldn't add primaries to a 25yo if I could buy a 20yo and he needed the improvement more but an already valuable first team player with just 3 pops a season in Passing (example) could be very beneficial to a team vs. just adding more JS to new yth coming through. Depends also if you are able to train for team improvement or whether you need to train for economic return.

having the whole team young is just a waste of time
and on some levels of competition, you have to have good players, slightly older, that you still train

It would be even scarier if he got everything right!

well i have started loading up on older players. they are cheaper to buy and they add valuable depth to your team. and also all players will have to be replaced at some point so if you can find a great player for your team, you can always sell him later and get most of your money back, after your team has won it title.

This 20 year old not worth training is some bullshit. If it is the case then it needs to be changed frankly a real player stops being trainable at about 25 and then skills decline at around 29.
