A player caught my eye recently, and I decided to buy him. The thing is, his stats aren't that too impressive...

...that is, his PHYSICAL stats!

So I wondered and eventually decided on a training regime, specifically for this player, and came up with the following...

...the plan is, with the aid of my coaches, to turn this player into a world beater

I'll update in a few months time (game time!) :thup:

o.o He's 28.. I doubt you can change his physical stats THAT much. But it's an interesting Experiment, can't wait to see what you find out. Might want to watch his happiness though. Don't think he'd want to be on VERY HEAVY training all the time :p

He'll get injured a lot. I know from expeience.

I figured the same, about his age, but thought...if Big Sam can do it, why can't I

I reckon the notion of turning physically light players in their latter twenties, into more stronger players isn't unheard of in football...I mean, look at the likes of...erm...

I can guess that he's going to be very tired, very unhappy with his schedule & get alot of injuries.

You might want to reduce his physical training a bit!

It's got to be 100% full tilt on the physical and strengh aspect of the regime...maybe I could set the other bars to zero...knowing my luck, he'll end up losing his technical ability

This will happen anyway to a degree. It seems there is a balance to be had with players technical/physical stats.

I predict slight gains in the physical aspect coupled with losses in the technical aspects.

You need to reduce his workload to medium and see what he does. Chances are he wont improve at all 1 cos of his age and hes too bad on physical and areobic stats.

retired_avaule

quite a good idea,

however i normally do this with my younger players and maybe not so intense either lol,

but i hope the player didnt cost you to much, because it would be a waste of money if you just bought him for a failed experiment now wouldnt it?

Physical attributes are more of a natural thing anyway, wheras tecnique comes through practise. It's unlikely any player of any age could improve that much on the physical side, but the technical attributes are more likely to improve more.
