The easiest way to train players is knowing you will blow out the opponent with your trainees playing 48 minutes. 9-8 players depending on training positions will usually net you those minutes (fouls, injury).

Rather than derssing worthless scrubs try playing a VERY short roster. I don't do it but a friend of mine usually only dresses 6 players per game with "let them play" and "strictly follow depth chart" selected. He very rarely has these problems.

Will not go there a lucky fan then? I mean 6 players probably isnt enough for a coach.

if you want a player to play 48mins without being replaced you should go "strictly follow depth chart", ignore foul trouble, and play with 9 players maximum...

Thanks for this, it was a question I had post my game today... now I have my answer (still... I only played with eleven and EVERY one of my starters was sat in the 4th).

I have posted this somewhere before but a friend of mine Naker Virus who is well known on the boards often plays with only 6 players. This makes it very, very unlikely that your players will get subbed off but it does leave you very vulnerable to fouls and injuries. I play most games with 8 guys.
