2nd time I have ever listed a player of mine for sale while he has been in the U21 NT squad and as soon as I advertise that fact they have been instantly removed from the team.

What's the reasoning behind this whitewind? I don't understand it and unless there is a good explanation for it I think it's a pretty low move and poor form on your part.

Not a low move at all. Your player has been scouted. I've bbmailed you prior to him being listed that he needs OD, 9 OD is not high enough to make the team. Keeping him in the team would give someone a false indicator that he will be in the team, which with 9 OD he will not. That wouldn't be fair and is an unfair expectation- using my power to help you sell a player? The team will be finalised by this seasons elected manager. I will have scouting complete to help whoever that is.

I have not had a reply from you about your training intentions. Knowing what your future plans are helps me track players for future selection, so that the team can be managed as best as possible for our country.

You didn't have to use your 'power' for anything. You didn't need help, in fact you obviously intended to do the opposite. All you had to do was nothing.

But what's done is done. We all know the squad this season isn't up to standard. Just funny how supposedly a player can be in contention for a starting position then get dropped? Yeah he needs OD, but all the players need something and he would've got what he needed. Not that I'm required to inform you about what I do with my players.

I see it as this, your job is to manage the pool of players at your disposal. Whether or not you want to use my players I'm not too fussed about anymore. And i will just think twice about advertising a player of mine is in a NT while your still in charge with all your power. Like I said, it's not the first time this has happened , but I kept my mouth shut. Not again.

At this time of the season, scouting is going on. Apologies for you false hopes. He will likely be scouted again once, or even twice, as training updates occur. The NT manager will announce the team when it is finalised. The players listed in the team until that point are there for monitoring only. Hope that is clear.

Please update the manager with updates if your player is in contention. It helps makes the most informed decisions and select the deserving players.

You did nothing wrong whitewind lol. Talk about creating drama out of nothing.

How else would you scout without bringing players into the team??
Also it should be pretty common knowledge that Defense is more sought after than other skills.
