Not wanting to highjack the thread but If suggestions from here will eventually reach the devs how about the daily skill boost not being random but going to the Captain? That way we can choose who receives it and it makes the captain role actually do something.
Over the course of a season (26 games) the player will increase by 10.4 skill points which is a tad over 2/3 of a Star, nice going for a favourite player?
(in fact, 28 days = 11.2 skill points)
