A question; I´ve managed to reach the premiership with Leyton Orient. Trying not to use the "Genie Scout" to much, just to check out my squad and prospects i bought. I am wondering how ta make the players have their ability maxed, reaching their potential. One forward I´ve, age 22, pot 189, is stuck at 170-172 in three seasons. Just managed to get my training facilities to 20 from 16, so this season will be interesting, I´ve got 5 star in all training categories senior/youth. Not using any special schedule for training. So hov to make my prospect 194 pot midfilder reach his pot? I don´t think the training threads here give me any results saying which one is the best.

So, how to make the players reach maximum ability/potential?

Some players never reach their potential. It all depends on how much first team experience they gather in the early part of their career, their grade of professionalism, the amount and lenght of injuries (throwing them back), and so on...

I wouldnt focus that much on watching the potential stat anyway - it takes away the fun imo. Give your prospects the opportunity to play in your first team or even better loan them out to a club where they play as first team.
If they reach the age of 23 and you don't consider them good enough for your first team, get rid of them.
