    This is our great striker Alex Zidane who has done wonderful things at July Fourth over the last 6 seasons at July Fourth but now he is getting old and declining at an alarming rate. He currently sits at 5*107 (31) and will drop to 4*108 as next seasons starts, since he will technically be a highish-end 4* player as next season starts and will be 30 years old and only be a reserve at July Fourth next season if he stays and not play many games as we will likely bring in a young striker at the beginning of the season, but we know that Zidane can come up sometimes with answers when July Fourth needed him in the past. But would it be in Zidane's best interests for him to move to another club as he maybe lacking a little on the quality side. Only plus here is ST/AMR and an either footed player now.



    What you think? 1 more season for Zidane where he would only play about a dozen games at best OR should be move on to a different club in his best interests? He has 1 year left on his contract when the new season starts. Another season for Zidane would be effectively be a season of honour for the striker.
    I think it might be his last season. Even if you PT him, 300 greens would be enough but then it's almost the new season and he'll be low end 5* next season. So unless you want to keep him for the 2nd team, then you may have to sell. It's a hard decision and I know he's been such an important player at your club but you know what's best for him

    He won't be power trained, he will be too slow to PT next season as he moves out the 26-29 bracket and into the 30-31 bracket. He has not gained 1 quality point this season, started 107 (45) and now 107 (31). So at best he is a reserve. I'd rather save my greens for a younger player or scout, If I'm going to power train anyone old it will be Papaleo. As much as I like Zidane and his contribution. The arrows are pointing to the exit door sadly because 4* these days at July Fourth seems insufficient for reserve for July Fourth when 5* players can be signed cheaply on my server. I kept a 34 year old 4*104 GK this season because it was for reserve purposes and reserve GK's don't play that many games anyways and I would of had to pay him 2 years wages ($14M) to kick him out lol.

    As much as I want to keep Zidane I think he will have to be sold. I wish this game would expand to 25 man squads because players like these can stay around.
