Keep us updated on how those two 'Nordgens' play. Also, show us the profiles of the two players.
I have (and had) 'Nordgens' who trained well, but some played poorly. Some averaged a rating of around 6 and others averaged a rating of around 7. Even 7 is not good enough given that they are 5 stars and above, and are playing mostly against 3 stars rated players. I think that the market are flooded every day with too many highly rated, good or not good trainers, but flop players.
They need to improve the contribution of central midfielders; more importance should be given too them. Central midfield is the most important area for any football team, but in this game, it seems that players in this position are most unneeded ones as most of them average a poor rating and they seem to provide little contribution to the game.
