Newbie GK Dilemma

[KaniNeko]

I just start playing TE. When I got my team for the first time, I thought my GKs were very weak, so I bought a 5-star keeper (5 tokens + 600k) to strengthen my squad. A few minutes later I found free scouting offer and tried it. My scout flew to Turkey and brought me a 8-star keeper who is far better than the rest of my team.

I’m not sure about this GK situation. Is it necessary to have 2 quality GKs in the team? Or should I sell one of them for cash? And which one should I sell?

My personal view is that you only need one GK in your squad. In 4 years of playing T11 my GK has been injured on only 2 occasions and never sent off. So unless you want to keep the back-up GK for Cup / CL / Associations then I’d probably sell the 5* one.

You may sell 5* one since you'll get loads of GK recommendations lol.

Sure, sell the 5* GK, it will worth a good money and you don't need 2 GK in your squad.

Thanks. Already sold 5-star keeper and made some profit.

I'm quite the contrary.. As I usually have 2-3 games per day until the end of the season. I keep 2 good quality G on my team so I can rotate when one gets tired. I like to keep a good backup on my Squad.

I'll have my main goalie (*6+ 19 years old) and then a 5-6* mid-late 20's backup that I rotate every season.

And you have two mediocre GKs instead of a good one. If a player is tired, it is better to use a green pack. Situations when you need to do it are not that often if you plan his training schedule carefully.
You should have two GKs, just in case of a trauma, but you shouldn't rotate them, imho.

No dilemma at all, this keeper looks delicious.
I would like to share with us his stats in mid-season. I would like to see how he performs.

There is no need for 2GKs.
If you want to play on safe side buy a 3-4 star GK with one token, so in case of in-game injury you can replace your GK with a GK..., and not with nonGK player which may be catastrophic for the result of such match.
