Should they stay or Should they go now?

[Stuptown FC]

I have two players that are great players, but I only have room for one. I wanted to put this to the group and see which one you would part with. One has proven success, and the other have a lot of growth potential and has been playing in great form lately.

This guy, Bernhalter:


And Paresoto:


Bernhalter is up for contract renegotiation and is asking for a one time deal of 172.000 and a season wage of 72.000! That will make him slow trainer. He has a lot of value at 1.72M

Then there is the youngster who I picked up on free agency Paresoto. He is worth 2.2M and sits at 3* Quality 24. I just gave him a skill hoping to make him more marketable, but then I thought, I should keep him, with 2 years left, and his season wage is 2.2k so he is an extremely fast trainer!

I only need one. Which would you keep?

[RJSlow]

It depends if the fast trainer would get any playing time. If he would then I would play him because he would be a better investment long term

[Stuptown FC]

They both get playing time. I have another Striker that would be on rotation

[Qambu Yaasi]

Then get rid of the Striker. Why get rid of your starters?

[Buffs Mad]

It depends on a lot more than the info you have provided. My first step would be to assess the importance of the older one to the team - is he the team's free-kick taker, does he score a lot from them. If he's important then the question is how easy will it be to at least replicate that importance with the new guy. etc etc

Personally (and I'll assume negligible token cost), I'd sell the new guy, since he was a free agent its money for nothing and you'll forget about him easily once the next hotshot (my meaning) comes along.

Such a difficult question tho' - maybe I should just say - the string is this long *holds up arms*
