Asunto: [U21] Defenders

Bit of extra sell on coin for Cisco. ;)

Would anyone have a training spot for Coleman? He needs def training to be most effective for the U21 NT but I'm not training def for the rest of the season. 8 or 9 weeks of def training will probably get him to 13/13.

Scott Coleman, age: 20, height: 177 cm
value: 454 000 AU$, wage: 4 320 AU$
club: Cool Runnings, country: Australia
form [14] brilliant, tactical discipline [11] formidable

stamina [6] adequate, keeper [0] tragic
pace [12]+4.5 outstanding, defender [11]+2 formidable
technique [7] good, playmaker [3] poor
passing [5] average, striker [4] weak

For those interested, currently #3 def for his age.

I can certainly ask around

In the meantime pace won't hurt him if you have a spot, but if you don't have a spot, better to release and see how things go

I could probably make a spot. My current def trainees are receiving pace but I do plan to shift to defender training soon.

I can continue with pace, until someone can take him for def training.

If no one puts their hand up for him, I'll list in the next couple of days. Needs def training. Pretty sure he'll random pop to 13 pace while training def.

Now +5.5 pace and +2 def.

He picked up a knock in the friendly, so will sell ending on Wed.

Can you remind me when you list

One of the players released from a bot team

Currently number 5 defender for his age. Obviously Talent unknown

There's also Neil Stathakis who is Number 7 MID (so probably not worth buying unless desperate) and Greg Bailey - didn't realise he was 19 and not 18 when adding to NT, so waaaaay down the list for U19 strikers

I see Ferris is up too. Handy def for anyone in div 2.

I forgot to list Coleman last night. Have put him up now, ending 1am SKT.

Ferris is an interesting one.
He is about the level of what most of our defenders year on year are at the end of the season.
So it's hard to predict if he will be of use for the senior NT with training. I figure he will likely be on the fringes (along with another dozen or so) if trained, and may get a few games under his belt, but unlikely to be a starter.
Certainly a good way to think about it. If by end of 21yo they are 2x incred with some points in tech and play, they are about the median kind of level for u21. Less than this, won't play seniors, may get a few u21 games. More than this, will play u21 games, good chance of some senior time in the future

You forgot to write me. Shame on you

I wrote to everyone. :)
I know you're active in the forum.

Sokker didnt work before exactly 1 minut after deadline

Logged on 1 minute too late. I hope he gets good training

Oh, that's not good. Should I ask to have him relisted? Went cheaply.
