i didnt list him because i felt asking price is a bit too high, but he could be one day a very nice player. only problem is his superstar potential, which on the long run for a big is too low.

you are aware that only NT coaches may post players here? and only english players may be listed here? anything else posted here by anyone else is not acceptable. this isnt my rule or decision but this is a standard BB rule.

Sorry for that. Thanks for letting me know. Still, that is a reasonable skill set for my player, yes?

Clearly it was. You mentioned that Superstar was too low, and I pointed out that some players with superstar could start for the English team. Or, are you arguing that the future England NTs will not have room for Superstar potential players?

i am not going into every discussion where you are going to show the one exception to the rule and have lengthy discussions about this.

i am not argueing at all, and will not argue with you about this.

train him to be the best english PF and he will play. it is as simple as that.

You are a bit of a bully, you know that?

Instead of participating in a dialogue about the future of NT prospects, you would rather just shoot everyone down.

Now I see why the England board was dead before I started participating.

i feel sorry for you that you cant accept the facts.

you are the one that wants to argue. and i am not going too. i have seen allstar potential players that play for the NT.but this is a big exception to the rule. rule for most NT is super star potential for guards and better for bigs. does this mean there is nowhere an exception to the rule to be found? no!!! if the player is superbly trained he can make the NT with any level off potential. you can train players once he has reached his cap too. they just train slower. that player that you are showing is trained beyond his cap. if you want to do that, go ahead and if you train him well, he might play one day. if you want to train him once he is capped (which means he pops very slow, go ahead), but I am not going explain how this game works, talk about every exception to the rule etc and argue about it because you are bored.

i dont see where i am bullying you by saying train him well and he might make it into the NT. is it likely, he will play for the NT. in my opinion not. more there doesnt need to be sad. and if you dont like that, fine, call me a bully, that isnt my problem.

Hi guys. It's been few time since i signed up, and am always interested in English NT teams of online managers, and the main problem i see here is that those very few English users working on the team row in different directions.

Ive read we are not a first class NT team, so that is why we are focusing players to be specialist in one tactic. That is positive I think, at least until we have something else to vary in tactics (in some seasons). I hope some day Ill be able to help the NT, but in the meantime I agree with Astragoth we as a country should keep our best players, or at least let them in good hands.

Anyway, the key point is to row together, that is much more important then '3 or more OD needed in PF' discussion.
