fast train youth are not always great out of the gate, if I want that I look for a 22y.o. trained the way I would have.. barring that an old guy with a string of good ratings or stats. on my no money team I lose great players cos they retire! there are many successful ways to manage your team and resources, if an okd guy is great... keep.him until he isnt, dont sell or sack because they are oldsters, they might yet have value.

I agree with you. Some players are just so good - I think the game made them so, they score goals even when their quality and morale is low. When you find them keep them.
However, there are those that are just for show. They always beat the defense and their balls keep whistling past the post. Those ones belong to the bench and if they are in 9 or 4, I keep them for the next shark market season.
