Just to touch base with what Prof. Bricks said, you should pretty much stop training someone altogether if they pass the 23-24 range. So your best bet is to just stick to One position training on the 19, 20 and 23 year olds.

I dont need anyones salary to explode, im building players to help my team succeed, not to financially cripple it. Plus the older players still get SOME trainings as their sublevels were increase and they will perform better. Two position training IS and ID is not as bad as people think. I am not trying to build a U21 player or a NT player, im trying to build a div III starter or a div II backup.

I dont have a goal :) I bought them all cheap! I dont wanna train them out of position because I actually want to win games and maintain gameshape right now. Maybe one day ill train a SF or two.

You are somewhat correct on your anaysis of 1 position vs 2 position training. But that is only true for younger players like 18-20 year old. Two position training for them gives about 60% of the training they would receive if you did 1 position. However for the 26-27 year old, 2 position training gives them about 33% of the training they would receive if you did 1 position training.

Two position training isn't nearly as bad as it is often made out to be. If you're training a guy for international play, or trying to make a player that will start at the top levels, it's just not going to work, but for lower and midlevels, it's quite possible to make decent players with 2position training.

On the other hand, training 26 and 27 year olds with starter potential is just not overly useful. They're going to pop slowly if at all.

Thats true, but I want to put out my best lineup game in and game out, but while maintaining gameshape. I see what You are saying though :)

A few things.

1. Im not sure how my economy is bad. My salaries are below the league average. Im only putting in 10k a week on scouting. The only thing I can improve is expanding my arena. Which is a minor reason why I opened this thread. Should I save my money for a transfer or to expand my arena?

2. What kind of position are you in to be talking about 'progressing' if You spent 9 seasons in div III(and just recently promoted) while I am in a decent position to promote from div III and im in my 2nd season of div III?

And to everyone, I know that I opened this thread for help and it sounds like im just declining everyones opinion, but I dont like when people criticize me in a situation like this, but dont tell me why or how I could fix it. Also idk why people keep saying im training the 26/27 yo. Yes, technically im training them, but the 19,20 and 23 yo are obviously priority, but like I have said I want to play my strongest lineup all the time which makes getting 48+ for all 3 impossible and since im not trying to get these guys to any NT, two position training seems like a viable and good option to me.

You asked in the first post of this thread:

Nothing special, but if I continue training these guys, would they help me out in div II or am I going to have to go out and buy some bigs? If I promote that is.

Basically I just wanted to get some tips and opinions on how I am running my team. I love this game and would like nothing more than to get better at it! Thanks"

Everyone has given you their evaluation of how you are running your team. That is what you asked for. If you don't want to follow other's advice that is your choice, just don't get all defensive when you disagree with the opinions of others.
