Strikers are hard to get good ones, but I am curious.. where do you assign their attributes? I usually have their attack 5-10 over defence, with phys/mental above the attack stats.

Here's one I have had forever:

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

Just got bored of winning all the time, and you cant gain tokens from buying and selling players. He probably hit the max budget also
He's disappeared from my list of in-game friends just as I unlocked the ability to buy his players
I can only make an offer on my friend who is next to me on my ladder, cant make offers on other L7 players

I bought 2 players at the end of the season a 26yo ST and a 19yo AMC/L. They're 27 & 20 now, my AMC (1.58M) gets MoM but only +142pts (+100 for MOM right?). Thats the same gain as my 27yo ST (1.28) with +42 if you take off the MOM bonus :-/

Looks like I bought a 19yo with stunted growth :-/
And my budget for this season is only 3.5M... how on earth am I supposed to buy a 8M fast trainer? lol

Oh, I read that if I let my player's contract expire and sign him at the start of next season he'll be cheaper? Is this true? and do I need to save up all his skill pts until next season to further reduce his wages?
