Asunto: Do we want the lists again?

Once upon a time we had lists of players points by age that we updated weekly. For example if your striker was solid in pace, tech and striker he would be 24 points.

The advantage of this was that managers could see how their player rated against the rest of what people were tracking and training. It gave a good grounding for managers in what they should be looking for.

The negative was that some senior managers did not chip in and thought that it was a potential data leak of skills and we started to use a database but then we lost sight of the database and I don`t know what happened to the database.

What do people think nowadays?

Should we bring it back or sort out the database?
(editado)

When I had the U21 role there was a NT database which I constantly updated. I am fairly certain there are such things still as I do get asked by foreign managers to update my player skills on their NT databases. If not then the points system would be great imo.

Yes exists.

I thought so.....not sure they are being used here though properly?

Not a chance they are being used properly. I have never posted anything to database since I have been here (that I can remember)!

Well I definitely used the database when I was u21 manager....maybe you did not have any English youths back then?

Anyway as I stated on another thread, the best way to scout is to split the English leagues amongst people and then scout the Juniors from each team......via club page, statistics and then youths from their school.

Also important to keep tabs on teams that have disappeared. TCD's old team for example, he must have sold some youths that have NT potential.

Agreed.

So is anything happening?

Does anybody know?

It would appear that Piotr is taking this duty on board as despite BR winning the election there have been no posts, plans etc since doing so. Alligator has posted something on the forums, it would be nice if a bit more was posted to bring the NT to the fore for everyone.....good or bad I am sure we can help and or have ideas.

You have to remember the typical response once toys are thrown out the pram is to fold arms and say "don't want to" rather than pick the toys up and move on. Unfortunately.

Is this happening? Where are the calculations tool.......this thread has stopped communicating

I remember years back there was a list of each skill that was pertaining to the actual position. This assisted with the capturing of each players total which was then ranked by points for each of GK, DEF, MID and ATT and lists were updated in year groups.

Example for a GK = GK x 2, Pace x 1.5, Pass x 1 = 22+24+8 54 Total
Alan Mccarthy, age 32
formidable stamina formidable keeper
unearthly pace adequate defender
adequate technique good playmaker
solid passing average striker

There is a calculation usually yes.

Perhaps you are talking about the database requirements?

I have searched many a thread in the forums as I was advised that this topic was covered many moons ago. I stumbled across this calculation in the NTDB, unsure if it fits as a starter?

GK = 3 x GK + 2 x Pace + 1.5 x Pass
DEF = 2 x Def + 1.5 x Pace + 1 x Pass + 1 x Play + 1 x Tech
MID = 1.5 x Pass + 1.5 x Play + 1 x Tech + 1 x Pace + 1 x Def + 0.5 x Str
ATT = 1.5 x Str + 1.5 x Pace + 1.5 x Tech + 1 x Def + 0.5 x Pass + 0.5 x Play

I would say that we require a minimum level of accumulative score to list players otherwise for the owner of the thread to keep it updated would be time consuming. I will leave the minimal levels to more experienced users as they have much more knowledge around this topic.

I was also advised that there is a code available to allow others to view your hotshots within the listings. If anyone knows how to do that and can share the code here that would be fantastic.
