If I was to list your top 3 priorities, they would be: OD, OD, and OD.

Sure, your players might be MVP calibre now down in D4, but by D3 players 1 and 3 are liabilities on defence, and come D2 if you made it, player 2 is only scraping by.

I would echo the thoughts of the previous poster, I would recommend spending at least a season on just OD, ideally you'd want 15+ on all of them, then they'll be able to take you to where you want to be headed.

It's a shame their IS is so low, but that's okay in the lower divisions, if you maximise what they can give you in their outside game they'll make fine guards for D3 and at least be starter/backup calibre in D2.

I would always recommend forward planning for not one but two divisions ahead of where you're at (if possible), your stars in your current division should at least be good enough to be starters in the next div up, and at least good enough to be backups two divs above. Otherwise, you're wasting your time with them.

Good luck.

Thank you both for your responses. It is greatly appreciated.

I am still fairly new to this. I've never really taken it serious on the training. To be honest, the first time I asked for advice, I got criticized and called a few names for not knowing simple things about the game. That experience made me not want to ask for advice again. But, I cannot figure it out on my own, as you can tell by my training of those three players, so I am back looking for help.

I've done well with my money and have millions in the bank. So I want to take it serious and start to climb the ladder, and I appreciate both of you for giving me advice, and to the couple who have been giving me some advice in private.

I'm sure I will have more questions. But for now, thanks for the help. And I am training nothing but OD for this entire season to see how it goes.

For training the best thing you can do is taking Coach Parrot or the Training Simulator and using them. This way you will know what is reasonable to expect and how to play around cap considerations.

You can see the sticky thread in this section and this message in particular (100218.2). Other than that, your U21 staff should be willing to give you some pointers or even have written guides about training (I think Americans and Canadians both have them).
