Strikers Bought This Season Are Not Scoring Enough Goals

[Tactician]

Yes, my model is a bit of a strange one. The key question in that long post of mine being, "Is their a relationship between player age and form?"

My hypothesis is yes, that's why I've been patient in power-training average form young nordgens/academy grads. The bad form ones, I still release. Normally, I just train them no higher than 7*, last couple seasons I just went a little overboard, having two players above 7* and five 7* players since I was hunting the lvl 2 Triple Crown achievement...

Yes, based on your experience, it seems that there may be a relation with the age or the amount of time spent at a particular club.

Yes, but young players with good records are not sold by their teams unless they are slow trainers or the manager has been able to get better players even for the bench.

I think wht she meant is that you can always choose to look for the proven strikers rather than training nordgens

Proven strikers would compliment the team while you train one or two fast trainers.

[Buffs Mad]

you sold a player after 1 game ??? thats just ....lol

No. I sold him after 45 mins.

[Blackkiwi]

No. I sold him after 45 mins.

Gotta be ruthless to make it

On that note, if you're after a decent ST immediately and can't afford to give him time, and first game up he hits a 6....then Buff has every right to dump a 6 rated ST

I got too disagree, I have had many excellent players having had a rough start just to become keyplayers through the season and/or the following. So it of course depends on your timetable, but I would always keep and test my investments

Actually: most/many players starts slow 6-6-7-6 etc.. no panic IMO

[talisman]

I suppose if your team is scoring 8 and 11 every other game and your other strikers are scoring hat-tricks for fun then a single 6 is a bit of a failure...

[spornybol]

my main striker below he`s 25 and had him since 19



and my 2nd choice but he does set a few goals before this season and he`s 24 and had since 18



so be patient

It's another thing if you had a ST who played last or some seasons ago, good games and this season he is under performing
from a ST who bought today and starts with a 6 (which remember that is a lower rate comparing with a 6 of a MC,DMC or GK)

It's anther thing if you spend 1 2 t for a ST from TM than spend 50T for a scout/list player, T academy or fast trainer.

[Qambu Yaasi]

It's a failure if he scores bucket-loads against abandoned teams, but disappears during crunch matches.

[HoofDaddy]

Yeah the clutch factor should never be overlooked. Big goals mean spot in squad for me.
