A qualifier this week meant an extra week of playmaking training, and it turned out to be a nice one, as Per Rossten became the 5th excellent playmaker on the Dragons roster...
form (players): +2 / -4 for -2
form (levels): +2 / -4 for -2
-- Starters net effect: even
** WOOT: God is now in excellent form, can't ait to see if he'll get his first 4 stars performance in the Cup on Wednesday... The other only form raise went to star trainee Reimund Brigg, who is now in solid form. He was in weak form when I bought him 4-5 weeks ago, just has God was in wretched form when I bought him around midseason. Must be something in the water around here :)
** BLEH: GK Scott Langston dropped from excellent to solid form, but that's the kind of drop I can live with...
starter form:
2 excellent
5 solid
1 passable
2 inadequate
1 weak
============
Average starter form: 6.5 or mid between passable and solid (same as a week ago)
** the one player in weak for would normally not play, if this were only a regular season league game. But since this is the only game of the week, and he's one of my good inner mid trainee (excellent playmaking & stamina w/ inadequate defending), he'll step on the field next Wednesday, in hope to bing his form back on the right track...
value: +113k / -15k for +98k
** Brigg has seen his value take another huge jump, +36k, now at 461k, the highest value of all the Dragons, keeper and God included... ;)
playmaking: As mentionned above, Per Rossten popped to excellent playmaking. Per is presently showing some amazing skills. He may not be the most impressive player to many of you; I know he's "only" excellent in playmaking, not formidable or oustanding, or even brilliant, but look at this: excellent playmaking, formidable stamina, excellent form, inadequate passing... He should be very close to popping to weak experience, since HAM shows him with 25 or so points of experience since his last increase from disastrous to wretched. His only downside is that he is 20, turning 21 in a few days... He wasn't one of my best buys, as I paid 13k for him as a 19yo inadequate playmaker, but he sure has grown with the team and he's now pulling in 3.5 stars in solid form... He was one of the first tainee that I bought, for whom I paid any sort of attention to his secondaries...

WKIM is the number of weeks played at inner mid since last playmaking pop (100% training)
WKWG is the number of weeks played at winger since last playmaking pop (50% training)
TOTAL is the total number of weeks of training received
TOGO is the approximative number of weeks of training the player still needs to pop in playmaking, based on the player's age, his TOTAL of weeks trained already and the fact I have a passable coach. (zero if player popped this week)
