with skill point`s you have a couple that can go 1 rating better, every 15 = 1 rating and every 75 = next star if player is say on 30 and 5 star means he`ll be 35 and scout ( 6 star ), myself i`m saving at mo as i over 1700 skills ready for new season but i have saved them over last two seasons

with contract your fin at moment as when contract does expire you will have 7 days to sign or they go on a free transfer at the moment they are still under contract so keep an eye open for when it say`s you have 7 days to sign or the leave on free and also don`t add any skill saved till they signed or it cost more to re-sign
