Losing friendlies has no impact, does it? So go with experimentation and chem building...

It does. It is used for rankings and such which are important for the seeding of tournaments.

That's nonsense friendlies should be friendlies...

it is rediculous

But it is emulating real life.

That is something I did not know. I figured we could use these friendlies to gain chemistry for our first subs, and give our starters a break to gain extra training. But since this is the case I guess we will have to put a fairly strong line-up out there with a new guy or two, and a couple late subs.

It is mostly used for the end-of-season tournament since the seeding for the World Cup Qualifiers has already taken place.

Anyone going to watch the game today? Should be a good one.

Do you have any plan to call some prospects to NT? Out of curiosity, is there any advantage of doing so if they are not called for games?

Well I can only speak for myself, but we get to call up 22 players for training bonus, 18 get chemistry and the other 4 just get training bonus. The eight we have on the bench is specific for chemistry or subs. The other 4 are pretty much either a top prospect or fringe player. And as for player prospects, I would have liked to played a lot of them, but our soccer team is like real life Hockey, we are expected to win every game. I am not sure we would be given lienency on losing games due to playing lower OR players regardless of AQ. I hope I responded properly, or were you talking about adding some new top prospects?

Wow, what a game!!!!!!!!

Very good game, fun to watch exept my fingernails lol

adding new top prospects

Glad to see Borden back in the mix and nabbing a goal...
