Eminence, that is the kind of response that stops you being a great u21 manager.


Comments like this are counter productive my friend, regardless of your experience


Ah yes, the difference between a good and a great manager. On reflection, I'd have been better BB-Mailing Eminence rather than rebuking him pubically. In the context of how long I've known him for on here, it's not as rude as it looks. Honest.

Kind of, we formerly used BB-stats to go through and find/contact potential players, now I use the US salary database as it weeds out players on bot teams for me. If you'd like I could post the list of top prospects here :)

He looks a great trainee with some good secondaries. Just make sure you do a lot of passing training!

He is fantastic in my opinion. If you were going to pick a low stat passing is the one as it goes up so so quickly when you train it and it will take his handling up a notch or two either.

if you were going to be thorough about this kid you could mix in some ID training, but his SB and other inside skills are great for a guard starting out.

are you able to one position train him? have you got a level 4 trainer+

i love him to bits :) reminds me of my player Gascoigne except your player skills might be a touch higher than his when he started so if i can do it, you can!!

Great news!


one tip: when playing bots or scrimmages running a 3-2 zone will decrease the chances of your your SF from fouling out. Training some inside D would also help. As I told fluff, you are going to want to end up with an Inside D of around 10. So, it would be good to crack on with that before he becomes a true guard.

i'm a big fan of a good defensive player, but just wondering if it's worth a time to train his ID. Might need at least 4-5 weeks to make ID+2.

His weaknesses is only the passing skills, hopefully i can give him a lift or two before he is 19
