Season 80 - Are you ready!

[kynan]

Its been a very busy few days since the season started for me, as I've revamped most of my squad, trained 2nd and 3rd roles to the majority, then power trained players to the standards I've been wanting. A big change as I enter level 43.

I am hopeful that all my power training has been done for the season now and it has left me on level 74 for my training as a result.



What I have done this season is bring in several new players.

Babaei was brought in and trained the DL position to go with his DR/DC that he already had. He was then power trained up to 7 star.
McEvoy was brought in and trained the DR position to go with his DL/DC that he already had. He was then power trained up to 7 star.
Stewart was brought in and trained the DR position to go with his DL/DC that he already had. He was then power trained up to 7 star.
Abadie was brought in and trained the DL position to go with his DR/DC that he already had. He was then power trained up to 7 star.
Murphy was brought in and trained the MC and MR positions to go with his ML that he already had. He was then power trained up to 7 star.
Bond was brought in and trained the MC and ML positions to go with his MR that he already had. He was then power trained up to 7 star.
Hirschmuller was brought in as a recommendation as he had MC and MR already and was one point off 7 star. He was then trained in ML.
Thomma was brought in and trained in the DL position to go with his DR/DC that he already had. He was then power trained up to 7 star.



Minorelli was kept on from previous seasons as he is a great performer, so the decision was to power train him up to high 6 star. He was given triple role a few seasons back.
Wheeler was kept on from previous seasons and will be kept as back up. He was power trained up to high 6 star.
Abdel Maghed was kept on from a previous season as he is another great performer. He too was trained up to 7 star. His tripe role was given to him a few seasons back too.
Acosta was kept on from last season and power trained up to high 6 star. He was trained in both ML and MR today to go with his MC that he had last season.
Pilon was kept from previous seasons as again he was a great performer. He was power trained up to 7 star again, having already had triple roles from a few seasons back.
Tejera was kept from last season and power trained up to high 6 star. He will be used as back up to the main two strikers.
Agadzaghi was kept from last season and is already high 6 star. He will be kept as back up or sold when he gets to just short of 7 as I doubt he will feature in my plans.
Corral was kept from previous seasons and again is high 6 star. He too will be kept as back up and probably sold later on in the season.

No work was done on Dragnev, my back up keeper who is now mid 5 star. He will only be used as a sub if my number one keeper, Abelha, is injured mid game - with the keeper then being healed afterwards. It was decided against improving him further as its not needed. Abelha was kept from last season but again power trained up to 7 star.




The main part of the last few days however has been keeping Foster power trained. He again has been power trained right to the top of 9 star, to the point now that he is over that and is now 10 star rated again after picking up a MOM award. Due to being 30 year old Fosters training speeds have really slowed down now but the decision to keep him going is one I stand by. He is already on 11 goals for the season which is good considering he was injured 4 mins into one game at the start of the season. He now has 790 goals and 289 assists from 559 games. The intention is to lead with Foster all season again, with him being healed after every injury should he pick them up.
