I never said anything against training your own players when the fit is alright. There are plenty of teams that can get good use out of high value trainees. That's why they are high value.


Now, as far as your other points, I think there's plenty of evidence that paying the opportunity cost of training one's own draftees does not prevent long term success, and it may not delay early success very long at all. But yes, as I've already said, if a manager's goal is to win as many games as possible quickly, then they should absolutely sell their high value draftees.


The first sentence you have already repeated tons of times and it doesn't contradict anything I have said in this thread. The second is made uselessly unobjectionable by the injection of the word "quickly".

If you have some other goals in mind besides winning in the long or short term, like only buying players whose name starts with M, that is totally fine with me. I just don't see why it needs to enter a strategy debate.


No, No, No. Only players whose last name starts in A

It really depends on how you want to waste your time. If you want to waste your time training his outside skills, he'll never get better but at least he'll still be old. If you want to waste your time training his inside skills, he'll never get better, but at least he'll be old. If you want to waste time with stamina and FT training, he'll perform slightly better but your team as a whole won't progress much.

I'd read through the thread GM-Perpete linked you to. Probably three or four times.
