You might need a bit more than 12 because there are 3 games per week, and too many minutes are bad for form (called "practice" in BB), just as too few minutes are. I started with 18, sold one, and just picked up 3 more in the draft, and so I have started to trim back again.

You might experiment a little bit, since you might have players who have different skills, but who might be the best player in different situations.

I would say 15-16 players is a good amount.

I have fourteen at the moment because it is really hard to pay more players that that. How can you pay for almost 20 players?

For form and training you want to play about 48 minutes right?

Hence, if you're playing 3 games a week, you need 3 game * 5 players/game = 15 players.

Actualy we need only min. 5 players...coz we dont have to change our starting 5 every game...but it would be great to have more then 15(maybe some can be injured,tired or something like that...)

Ok. Cool. So about 15-16 is good, although some people stock up to 20.

My problem is that as a noob, I'm having problems seeing how my economy is gonna turn out.

I haven't had a home match yet, so I don't quite know how much money that can make. Right now I'm hemhoraing about 50K a week. I wonder if that's doable (and I didn't get a new coach yet!)

Killing/selling a couple of low level players might help...
