Boo to early Friendlies

MikeVic · 01-05-2005, 01:06 PM

I totally forgot it was Wednesday... so I went to change my lineup from my A squad to my B squad and noticed that they already played (International)... so I guess my other trainees lost out on a week.

Has anyone else forgotten to set a lineup sometime in the past?

Yes. Since then, I set both the league and friendly after training is updated on Thursday.

Also, you might think about set piece training for this week, if you want to train everyone on the team.

I wouldn't do Set pieces training. It's still important to train your starters in their primary skill. I've noticed that Set Pieces is really only important for one guy, the set pieces taker. The only reason you'd need more is if you want to make a serious cup run, but the extra round you might get from one week of SP training isn't worth the loss iin primary training, imo.

hmm, it's useful for "long shots" special events too.

Yeah but do those happen often enough to justify wasting a week of training? I think it's far more important to train your primary skill, even if it will only be for your starters.

The real question is do you have more chance of them happening with more players on the pitch with high SP's? I won a game this past Sunday I shouldn't have simply cause I got that long shot event goal and my stud keeper saved both the other guys chances. I lost MF pretty badly, yet still won on that event goal. Something to think about, I suppose.
