Ok, so I'm training playmaking, and when I first got my team, I didn't realize how much more valuable a 17 yo was versus an 18-21 year old. So my first set of trainees are all from 20-22 now. At the end of last season I bought a bunch of 17 yo inadequates for cheap, and I don't really know what I was on, but I now have a glut of young IM potential trainees, and I want to know who I should keep and who I should cut. Here are my IMs and what they do as of now:
Player Stam PM Pass Def Age Role
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Casey Nava Inad Pass Weak Wret 19 Starter (Unpredictable)
Darryl Nettles Exc Pass Inad Wret 21 Starter
Jim Vandyke Exc Pass Dis Poor 27 Starter
Tuomo Heikkila Exc Pass Poor Wret 21 Recently Starting (Nettles injured)
Francesco Areggo Pass Inad Weak Poor 18 ???
Frank Bennebroek Exc Inad Poor Inad 18 ???
Milorad Ninkovic Exc Inad Inad Poor 21 ???
Max Hoyng Exc Inad Wret Wret 18 ??? (Inad Winger)
Paul-Arnaud Gadreault Exc Inad Weak Poor 18 ??? (Inad Winger)
Richard McNabb Pass Inad Poor Inad 18 ???
Lucas Turpin Exc Weak Poor Poor 20 Back-Up Winger (Passable Winger)
I think that I'll ditch Vandyke when Nettles comes back from injury and start Nettles-Heikkila-Nava (though Nava's unpredictability is killing me...he gave up a goal yesterday, and I lost 2-1). I want to keep Turpin until he gets to Inadequate PM, I think he'll sell for more as a winger that way. As for the rest...I don't know. I know Nettles is going to pop soon, and Nava has to be a high Passable (I've gotten back-to-back Solid midfields).
I think that I'll use Turpin and Gadreault as friendly/cup wingers, but then I still have 5 guys for 3 slots. Ninkovic has to be out because he's 21; but after that it gets sketchy. Hoyng's secondaries are terrible, but his Head specialty is nice, as is the Inadequate winger skill. Who to get rid of, McNabb, Hoyng, Areggo or Bennebroek?
