Season 141 - Are you ready?

Need to validate something. Can anyone help confirm this statement? Someone experienced (high level) mentioned this to me but I can't find anything in guides on it.

Players with negative grey skills are more likely to go missing in important matches and the team is more likely to get trolled.

Can't really confirm it, but just say that -
Overall quality playes a big roll in todays engine, so why would you go for negative grey skills unless you are an extremely association focused or hard manipulating manager, it doesn't make any sense for a rather normal player to go for it. Train the greys to get your whites higher, get your overall higher and keep the player longer.

Am contemplating keeping one of my older guys but it is likely that his greys will be in negative territory even with mixed training. I get what you mean regarding overall quality. Even training bonuses plays a big roll from my recent tanking experiences.

Just train him all the drills possible, even the ones with 1 or 2 whites and some greys in. I do it with my older players as well, I think it's better than keeping them at low quality as mini mutants.
