Players' age

[DoctorRedDevil]

Hi. I want to know something about the age of the players. I know young players gain skill points faster than older ones, but I need to know something else. For example, if I have an 18 year old striker and a 30 year old striker with identical quality, condition and morale, will they perform equally well? Does their performance on the pitch depend on their age?

Yes it does. The 30 yo player will lose more/faster fitness during the match. Despite of that, I'd rather let the 18yo play, because he will be earning his sp faster

The only diference is in the gain of SP all the rest is the same.
Players will perform better or worst no matter the age.

Are you saying there is no difference between experience and potential?
If so, then quality is the only factor that separates the two, in this case future quality growth between the two.
This would then explain the higher price for the potential younger player vs the lower price for the veteran.

I do think experience ( age) plays a part, even at the reduced price.

I think young players are overestimated in ppl's minds, fast train does not allways mean good perfomance.
