If the goal is to maximize training for the greatest possible number of players, then Kodlozevs advice missed, but it is not neccesarily bad. I value the training very differently for my players (1 above everyone else, 2 more than the rest, 1 I try to give 48+ whenever possible, and 2-3 that get spare minutes whenever it fits my schedule), and for my 1-3 most valued players I sometimes play them in several matches (like Kodlozevs advice). Especially when I face hard competition. I have to take Kodlozevs advice in defence, because it all comes down to playing style and what each manager choose to focus on. So even if it is a widespread
opinion that maximising training for the greatest possible number of players, it is not automatically bad advice because it does not fit your style. Notice how i made opinion in
italic, because we must not mix up opinions with truth. Truth is there are different approaches, only 1)knowledge, 2)experience, 3)circumstance and 4)personal preference should decide what ways and options each of us choose to pursue.
To everyone that did not like Kodlozevs advice: Try to be a little more constructive and give your own advices instead of just dismissing others advices. You are not helping by missioneering ONE particular playstyle.
Clarification: He also just said that to be certain to get 48+ minutes you could field your player in more than 1 match. This does not sound strange to me. BB's have said several times that minute management is not supposed to be easy as 1-2-3, so this is sound advice in many ways. Also, the numbers I hear on how much training effect you lose by having less (i.e.47vs44,5) minutes is news to me presented as facts. Can I get a link to the study or some info on what these numbers are based on? The training minutes have been stated not to be linear. ->
