Yeah, some of mine were training too. But thecageyones suffered 2 in their first match. One brand new scout, out for 3 right off. I don't really do PT, as in, don't buy loads of packs, just train them once a day at least and whatever they get from matches. Top them up with greens when needed.
Maybe I should start PT now, as I don't plan on buying any more players for my main squad? They're good for now, only brought in 3 scouts, sold off a few ... best to try PT for a bit then?
It's all luck, nothing more. Whether bad or good.
