The Boot Room (new managers zone)

[Cat Harrison]

It's funny how we all do it differently. I usually assign most skill points to 'Attack' (for a ST) and then followed by 'Physical/mental', and never assign defensive points to a ST. How good is your ST? How many goals does he average in a season?

Well, Apo's job is to pair with Bobo, so it's more about assists for him. I pretty much assign all my team high physical stats, it works for how I play. All of my guys will position themselves for defense as well, I like having the fewest GA in my league. (the only players to get crud ratings are my GK, I am changing how I assign on them) But yeah I find it interesting how everyone has a different way, and they can all work.

My friend who quit at L20 only used to assign Attack/Def depending on their obvious role, never assigned fitness nor the other cat. But he had a 2 season player turnover so I guess the lower fitness didnt affect him much as he's bring in new players the season after next.
I personally put more on ATT/DEF and decided on keeping an arbitrary 10% of player's Q difference between A/D and fitness.
I might double that for next season and go for more skill to fitness

I need a LOT of work next season. Lost 2-nil to 3rd place team and ended up 5th on GD.
He Q was 31.2(27.8M) to my 25.6(24.9M), I had no right to be challenging him for 3rd

These are my two current strikers, the 6* I bought and haven't't added any to defence or phys/mental, since his attack was pretty mediocre. The 5* This is his second season with the club, and i added attack w/ phys/mental. And finally the 3rd striker, he started off well, but hasn't really hit any form this season ( Averages 4-6 ) Last season he averaged 8-9.


And since somebody mentioned GK


I bought this guy at the end of a season, when he was on sale, he was 19 at the time, his first full season with me was poor, but this season his form has been just outstanding, I may have concede 5 goals in my past 3 games, but before that I had conceded 6 goals in 20 games, and kept 17 clean sheets. I suffered a few suspensions / injuries to my defence during the end of this season so I cant blame my keeper, next year he will goto the bench, but I cant stress how amazing he has been for me.

[Marc Symons]

Well this is my best striker. I only have 2 strikers in my whole squad as i only play 1 up top.

Slickz, whats wrong with that GK? He'll be 3* going on to 4. I'd keep him as 1st team and buy a near 6* 18yo GK as back-up. Train him hard so when you feel as though Ruffini isn't up to standard then you might try out this youngster.
I'm looking for an 18yo GK myself, whats the value of a faster trainer at L4?

And if you're getting as many goals from your midfield as you would from your STs, its as good imo
My STs are only my 2nd, 4th and 6th highests scorers, but are top 1 & 2 assisters
But then again, I'm only 3rd place so maybe my standards are much lower

LOL I was going for a 24Q freebie DCR then the guy who's 2nd place in my league with +5Q better than me comes in. He took it to Rnd12 against some other guy. Makes me feel better at only coming up 3rd behind him with his tokens to burn
He just beat the 1st place guy inflicting his 1st loss of the season and now 1pt behind.
They've dominated the lge, 18 & 19 above me.
1st place guy has top 2 goalscorers, 3/5 top assists and 4th & 5th top rated players.
2nd place guy has top 3 rated players and 3rd place goal scorer.

[Dman2pt]

On L4 is 8M more or less.

[Zangy]

On L4 is 8M more or less.

Oh wow thanks
that'll be my entire budget I think lol

[DiZZee]

Oh wow thanks
that'll be my entire budget I think lol

But he'll be your best dead ball taker as well...

here's the wiki page on attributes: Player - Top Eleven Official Wiki

leads me to think the phys/mental is important.
