i just let the assistant do it all

do you bother with it?

FitTrainer

definitely!! have my own schedules set up for each position, for senior and youth players too!!

if youw ant the best out of your players you have to set up training schedules.

after all you dont want defenders spending valuable time practising their shooting.

gives you the chance to up their defnesive minded training without them moaning about the intensity of training being too high.

but what do i do?

like my team is playing pretty well

and i'm a nightmare when it comes to training and tactics, but i would like to give it a go....what are the main things i should study for a striker, midfileder and defender?

Thanks

for me:
attacking players: high in attacking,shooting, technique,stamina,strength.

defnesive minded players: high in tactical,defensive,stamina,strength.

set pieces are tacked on at the end for me.
play around with it, i find that all training scheudles overall intensity are just a notch down from hard is the best

but you dont want to waste your attackers time by training them in defensive skills and like whys defendsive players in attacking.

goalkeepers are really high in stamina and strength and goalkeeping.
nothing for shooting and attaching. light in defensive and tactics.

have a look in the tactics and training forum, theres plenty of help there! if youre not sure about setting your own up theres plenty of schedules you can download too!

a. if you leave your players on the general schedule, they will train quite adequately and their CA will rise slowly.
b. if you get your own schedules, designed by position, then your players will undoubtedly train better and their CA will go up faster.
c. go to the Tactics forum and look in the FAQ thread at the top of the forum and read up about training there. There are also several good training schedules to download in there.

a. you've also got to take into account that yes, their ca will rise but some of the wrong stats will be rising in relation to their position if it's a general schedule.

you'll have a defneders attacking stats rising and nicking points when they could be going towards defensive stats.

:thup: Attention to detail...

I have schedules for each position but it really takes no time at all. I just set up schedules for each position and one for fitness when i first buy the game, save them and use them for each game after that. I probably spend ten minutes on training in the whole time I play the game but my schedules are still detailed and useful this way.
