SWaRFeGa Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Ther is no "age" that players start complaining about 1st team football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abs_UK Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 i have a squad of 30 players, 4 of which i send on loan to my affiliated clubs. i like my squad to be around 26 players. From my experience players with high abition will start complaining for regular first team place if you leave them out for long periods. with big squads its best to rotate your players around to keep everyone happy. and no there is no age ristrictions, but young players are less likely to complain about first team football.

SWaRFeGa Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I don't have a massive CL squad. Just enough to cover each position twice. Fill up the rest with youth players. Helps if you have good players who can play in many positions really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattg787 Posted June 25, 2008 Author Share Posted June 25, 2008 Hi But what do you do when a players is reaching 28 ? Also what do you do when you have an injury free season , wont players complain about not playing ?? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kancit5667 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Yes players will complain about lack of playing time if you do not have any injuries. It just happens. But you need to rotate your starters. I suggest that you check the players' condition before each match. If one of your regular starters is below 95%, start the backup. Also, when you have an easy match start a couple of bench players or youngsters you are trying to develop. Finally, to the extent possible, loan out your reserve squad. If you do those things, you shouldn't see too many complaints. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manchester United did not get rid of Rio Ferdinand when he turned 28. If you want to buy youngsters for the future - then go for it. Injury-free seasons almost never happen. You can please all your players all the time anyway. That's why you're the manager. Manage it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattg787 Posted June 25, 2008 Author Share Posted June 25, 2008 Thanks A Lot One More Question , How Many Strikers do you normalley have ?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWaRFeGa Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 This is only really a factor if you're managing at the top level. These things do not concern the likes of Yeovil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWaRFeGa Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Originally posted by mattg787:Thanks A Lot One More Question , How Many Strikers do you normalley have ?? Depends on formation. Again, helps to have maybe a winger who can play striker - so it's not a waste. Have at least 4 strikers if you're playing 4-4-2 or similar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 Originally posted by mattg787:Thanks A Lot One More Question , How Many Strikers do you normalley have ?? I currently have 4 for the first team (one of whom is on loan) 3 proven premiership strikers in the reserves. 6 young strikers I can bring through- even thugh my oldest striker out of the others is 25 .
