Guide: Understanding the 2016 Training System

Sorry if I missed it but did you test the effect of goalkeeping training on non-goalkeepers? I would be interested in the results as this would determine whether you should include goalkeepers in a general training session or train them separately or drop the goalkeeping practice from your general training session.

There's no point to train field players with the drill GK training, it doesn't contain skills for them. But almost every other drill contains skills for goalkeepers. The only 4 exceptions are: Press the play, Use your head, Stop the attacker and Hurdle jumps. These drills are useless for goalkeepers. So if you are adding GKs to your FPs' drill schedule, avoid these 5 drills, and you'll be more or less OK. This schedule probably won't be optimal though.
You can also check the table in my next post below to see what drills are suitable for GKs.

Yes, it's obvious not to train your outfield players (alone) with GK training. However, if you were lazy (like me) and want to minimise the number of training sessions required and therefore wish to sometimes train all your players at once (with a mix of attack, defense & physical), is there a wastage on your outfield players by including GK training in the mix or does the game recognise it's a waste and allocate that part of the session somewhere else for the outfielders?

I do realise I can train GKs with everybody else and they will still make gains but due to all the wasted gains in creativity, aggression, etc I would ideally like to throw in a GK training if it didn't penalise the outfielders. I have done it a bit already, without analysing the results, but I did notice that GKs will still make gains in creativity, aggression, etc and not necessarily in the GK training skills.
