I have a superstar striker, who scored 23 goals for me last season at level 31. This season he has managed 4 goals. My partner has a world class striker, similar stats but 1:1 scorer and he has hit 30+ goals consistently in the league in the last 3 seasons. I also read a thread about them and it highlighted the importance and difference they make in teams. There were originally 11 special abilities. One for each player on the pitch. I’m going to trial over the next few seasons while I rank, picking up cheap, good 18 yr olds and training one of each ability. Il post the results in a few seasons if I remember this thread.
Yes mate, please train ..... all my first team players have special ability and its great, they can make a difference in the match, especially if the opponent is equal . That is my experience and I hardly lose a match ..... go for it, especially with 18 yo when you spend 50 greens and you get a special ability not to mention that free kick and corner kick needs only 40 skill points, thats a bargain .... with 30 videos a day, 1 and half day and you get it
