How to maintain your players several seasons in your team?

[Der_Ryan_M]

I train them until the age of 25 years old, most of the times up to 160+% with 25 and so they last until 28-29 at 6 star minimum. But I only do it for offensive players, defensive I replace with 24-26 mostly.

Can I check how much greens do you spend to maintain players at those ages? My understanding is that age 22 or above will be so much difficult compare to 18~21 ages. i have a few players that i wish to increase their skills as they are coming to 22 soon. if there's too much greens - i might have to turn to young players to help me.

For example my AML ML I currently have:

390 greens from 47% to 133 % at the age of 19
260 greens from 116% to 163% at the age of 21
230 greens from 113% to 152% at the age of 25

Now he is 26 at 140%, he will play until he is 28 or 29. I replace when a player doesn't have 100% anymore at season start and I don't train players older than 25.

What about the drills you used to train your players? I used the same strategy as yours and at 21 yo, I train grey skills so it took a lot less green to raise %.

Yeah I do the same. I always do a plan with my sequence of the drills I want to use. With 19 yo I train 120% averages in the drills, with 21 yo I raise it 140% averages as it is still quite cheap then. So the best version of my player is with 21-23 years old.
With 25 again, I only do 120% averages again, and, like you said, I train a lot of greys. Because by then my player already has very good white skills to overall quality ratio and now I just care about him lasting longer so he can delay my replacement. Training a replacement for the first time is most expensive.

I also found pictures of the player how he looked after every training. I don't exactly know what I trained at which stage anymore unfortunately. I just know that with 25 I also trained a lot of grey and things like Piggy in the middle, Stop The Attacker, Hurdle Jumps etc.

Thank you, that's exactly what I do. I don't have old player with my account (level 7 now). Here are some of my players, the training is not finished yet:

Thanks for the reply - May i know why do we need to train grey skills? my understanding is to just train white skills so that grey skills will drop to 1% and easier to push white skills higher and faster? Based on your explanation - yr22 are still able to train? I currently not sure should i train my 22yr as he's at 65%?
