hi... i'm not sure if this is a good idea to write this here and one or the other will deny this again emotionally...

but this game is based on mathematics and not on chance or luck. everything is calculated finances, game results etc. and all every individual can do in football or basketball to win games, is to skill his players optimally and to give them early playing time (e.g. in friendly games with high game weighting) to get experience and the player skilling (in every sport) of the respective position, most of them do differently and that's more than ok. the problem is, there is an optimum of skilling for every position... and that's not "my opinion" but that's what some nations have tested many years ago over several seasons. different skills, statistics and results compared and so they found out a near optimum and they are usually successful. and to get very good players is not witchcraft but only mathematics. nominate the talents with the highest training quality early and nominate them regularly on matchdays of the u-national teams to get the maximum training bonus over max 6seasons and then such players develop.
