Training.

Are there any plans on changing the training in T11?

It's a bit ridiculous that we have to waste skill points on training a GK's finishing or worse still training outfield players handling!!!!

[spornybol]

they too improve outfield player`s handling or the only penalty you will have left is player spitting

[DiZZee]

Handling does not mean hand ball,,,,,,does it?????
I thought it meant. Ball control

[el_loco]

maybe, but if u take a good look on it, handling usually is the highest rating for GK defence skills, and the lowest rating for all the other players on their defence skills....so i guess it's more like a GK ability

[BigB79]

I have 2MC who have a better handling rating than both my GK's. I have 4 defenders who are only 1 handling rating below my GK's. My 2 GK's are better at crossing than my 4 FB's.

My point is that there are far too many wasted skill points in the training and needs changing. Skill points are not that easy to get and when they are wasted on my MC's handling then it's really ridiculous.

Eh, I doubt handling is a specific goalkeeper's statistic. Handling more likely refers to all kind of ball control, so it's really not useless at all for any position. At least in real life a player who can handle a ball well makes less mistakes and has a better first touch.

My GK 18 years old, still very weak in terms of experience

You are spot-on. Handling in football in general means how and where on the body to hold the football so that it is protected in running and tackling situations. The handling skill is not a GK specific skill.
