Asunto: Weekly Training

2005-05-05 10:23:15
I had another week with very little in teh way of pops. Must be due a landsclide of pops soon.

1 18yo (Polish) technique -> average

No others - not even a random pop :/

Decided to train playmaking this week and Luke Croom popped to Formidable, which was nice : )

Luke Croom, age 18
value: 63 750 £, wage: 885 £
poor stamina,
hopeless pace,
poor technique,
poor passing,
very good defender
formidable playmaker
unsatisfactory striker
2005-05-05 13:52:26
Training technique:

1 technique pop
1 striker pop
1 playmaker pop
1 defender pop
1 passing pop
1 pace pop/1 pace drop
1 stamina pop/1 stamina drop

That's a lot of random pops. I'm using a coach whose overall skill is formidable - he's normally the youth team coach but is filling in until next week when I recruit a new technique coach. With all these random pops though, I'm wondering whether it's better to go for an all-rounder?
2005-05-05 14:17:01
That is very interesting. My coach has good technique, scoring but naff all else.

I am getting a surprisingly low number of random pops....but maybe they are all about to happen :)
2005-05-05 14:23:28
Nah, it's just your bad luck, that's all.

I got one striker pop, after you destroyed my strike force in our "friendly" this week.
2005-05-05 14:24:19
I set them to "play inner city pub football" in my tactics...

;)
2005-05-05 17:35:53
I should really record my training pops but i don't :( Got a few stamina pops and my best player popped to divine form, unfortunately its the wrong time :(
2005-05-05 18:32:38
I managed to not set a friendly this week, so did a week of stamina, with my unearthly stamina coach:

7 x 1 rise, from 16 possible players.
2005-05-05 18:35:23
only 7?
2005-05-05 18:37:35
Yeah I wondered about that. Just checked and it wasn't my unearthly stamina coach who trained em, it was my magical pace one, who is poor in stamina. Bummer.
2005-05-05 18:59:21
Brilliant stamina coach
21 players
+21 pops!

(1 guy had 2, another nil)

I've been thinking about the random pops earlier and have gone back to have a good read through the rules, which state:

In addition to individual training a general training session takes place. All players that played in the current week’s matches participate in it. The effectiveness of general training is much smaller than that of the individual.

For the quality of both individual and general training responsibility lies mostly with the main coach. The feature that counts most is his individual skills, his general appraisal does not influence the effectiveness of training. Select a coach who solidly trains the skill you chose for the individual training. Decide yourself how important for you are other coach’s abilities and if you can afford to pay more for a better professional.


I take this to mean that, as we all know, if you're training technique then you need a coach with a high skill in technique. This stands for individual training i.e. the training you select.

As individual skills count most (rather than general appraisal), I would think that for the general training sessions it is beneficial to have a coach with high skills in other areas. Even though the time taken for pops will be longer, due to the lower training effectiveness of the general sessions, if you're training technique but you have a coach with a high training skill in pace and passing, then it follows that you're going to have more pops in those areas.

We know that the general appraisal is a direct measure of the ability to coach the youth squad, but it seems that two high skilled all-rounders might be the way to go - I've got a formidable overall who has incredible in technique and striker training, if I get another overall formidable with incredible in pace, stamina or the like (fingers crossed), I can just swap them round when I switch primary training, and hopefully get a load of random pops on the side.

And breathe!

Thoughts on this people?

That bit suggests to me that he is responsible for the free pops, too, and therefore the higher he is in passing, for example, the more free passing pops you get.

13 stamina rises on 19 players, although 2 of which are injured. One of the pops was +2.
(editado)
2005-05-12 09:30:37
specially purchased unearthy stamina coach...

17 rose 1 level
5 rose 2 levels
2 didn't rise. (1 injured, 1 at max).

Pretty successful that. Although oddly most that popped twice were high levellers - e.g. already at good or above, rather than the ones that really needed it down in hopeless / poor etc.
