Yes, although a lot less than I had done on previous seasons. I will have used about 300 greens this season. I only train the younger players, and my current team is pretty elderly by T11 standards, so about half the squad got some training. I need to think about replacing some guys, but I get rather attached to my virtual players, which is why I have been making myself buy the youths my school disgorges whenever possible.

The youths I have bought from my Academy have been quite worthwhile, and even with less training, they are performing well. Not entering into the bidding wars has enabled me to spend more on green packs, so I'm happy. I have also noticed my youths' market values are much higher than comparable on the market, so if I do eventually decide to sell them I should get good $$.
