I purposely don't play my starting 5 in every match. Iv been wondering however if theres actual any benefit to giving your players rest throughout the season like that. Of course there is in real life but seeing as this is a game, was that really something calculated in? Not necessarily in just game shape but I mean longevity wise will that players ability to perform at a high level remain longer as he ages or will it still decline the same as someone who played in every match anyway?

There is no 'resting' factor its all about current game shape and skills when they play.

I've heard a couple rumors/theories before that some people thought stamina drops were correlated to player minutes, so if you believe that, "resting players" would in a sense save them from an extra stamina drop every 2-3 seasons maybe, but I don't think there is any impact big enough to warrant "resting" your starters when you need them.

50-70 minutes for GS is the only reason to rest players so that they can get optimal minutes in my eyes.

Yeah I’ve never thought that about stamina, I just know other people have mentioned it.

I also agree with you on the GS stuff. It has always seemed to me like GS was based more off of the last 3 weeks minutes not just the last week.

On another note, good luck this season for your U21 NT. You guys have an awesome roster.
