By your own schedules, do you mean specialized ones based on position? Or more general ones?

I'm quite interested in seeing what the practices are here

More to the point, the lower the level you are the more likely it is for a manager to say, **** we're out of forwards, Dave your big and can run for a while, you're playing up front next week.

Unfortunately LLM being a small part of FM means we dont get that much detail and instead get the same methods that top level managers probably use.

:o
We train twice a week, mostly 1 to 1,5 hours. The topteam of my club (we have 7 senior teams) train 3x a week.
We (every team ) never do anything on fitness, we run a lot in the training so that should cover the fitness part. Passing/possessiondrills are a standard trainingmethod.

I started 2 years ago as AML, last season I usually played as DL or DR and since the last winterbreak I've ended up as DC.

Seems to be getting moved further and further back. After GK Emmen, the next position is out the door.

I run a similar system to BluMoon in that I have an Attacking schedule, a midfield shedule and a defenders schedule. I just set what I want them to concentrate on and scale it up when I go full time.

Playing the game in the Nordic leagues it seems more common for players to have a number of positions available to them, so I have no problem with playing big Dave up front if I'm out of bodies to put there.

Some players seem more able to learn a new position than others, some will get good and some won't. I have NFI how you find out if a player can learn or not though

Well, from what I understand every player has a hidden attribute called adaptability or versatility or something along those lines. So, depending upon how high or low that attribute is, the speed of a player learning a new position changes quicker or slower. There is no way to see what this attribute is for a player without going into the editor or using one of those other (bad) programs.
