Ty Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Just a quick question lads What stops me from tutoring my 17 year old? Is it his reputation or something similar? He is only 17, and I cannot tutor him. Signed him a couple in-game days ago. Any help will be appreciated, thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Standard liege! Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Get this quite a bit with youngsters. Not sure why. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montanaro Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 it's because the tutor isn't good enough. Why tutor a kid who is just as good if not better than you? (I signed a GK to tutor once, found out I couldn't for that reason ^) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why tutor a kid who is just as good if not better than you?(I signed a GK to tutor once, found out I couldn't for that reason ^) Complete misunderstanding of the question buddy. I cannot choose a tutor for him, he is unable to be tutored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montanaro Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 I understood your post completely. Your tutor or tutors are not good enough to tutor your 17 year old. I was making a point that it would be silly if you assigned a tutor to 17 year old, when the 17 yo is better and won't be able to learn anything from the player. I will say I think SI needs to fix this, because it would be nice to sign an old 35 some y.o. with a bunch of preferred moves that he could teach players.

The 17 year old is kind of useless at the moment, but has 4 star potential, he is just some regen. But I thought because I signed him for £7m, he would have a high reputation now or something.

ArsenalFan7 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 His CA may be too high to be tutored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check his squad status......if its anything higher than 'hot prospect' then he cannot be tutored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montanaro Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Check his squad status......if its anything higher than 'hot prospect' then he cannot be tutored. Not true. I have an 18 year old with squad status of First team being tutored. It has to do with age/ability/and tutors ability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aderow Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Did you change him to first team status or did he gain it when he signed a new contract? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Montanaro Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 I actually had him as a key player when he signed, then I dropped him down to first team. He still can be tutored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnEguE Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 It actually depends on the CA and reputation of both the players. If your youngster has CA and/or reputation close to the older mentor then you will be unable to tutor him. Hope that helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aderow Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I actually had him as a key player when he signed, then I dropped him down to first team. He still can be tutored. Ok cool. Its never worked for me that way. I had a 17 yrd old who was set at squad rotation and I couldnt tutor him. I dropped him down to hot prospect and I was able to tutor him then.

Maybe you dropped his reputation by essentially degrading him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
looknohands Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 You may also need to give it more than just a few days before finding a tutor. Give it another two weeks or so and see if he's linked with any players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFraser Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Any potential tutor must meet the following criteria. Plays in a similar position. Has a higher Squad Status. Has a higher Reputation. You say you signed this guy a couple of days ago. It is very possible that you gave him a squad status that is equal or better than any potential tutors in order to make him sign. It's something to keep an eye out for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djkid85 Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Not really sfraser. Higher reputation and ca yes. But squad status has to be at least the same as the player to be tutored. I had Rooney tutor pato, both were first team player squad status. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odeyia Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 This 'unable to tutor thingie' is bugging me for quite a while now and I think it needs a huge makeover. I just signed an experienced goalkeeper, who has been participating in Euro-Cup matches regulary and also had a few appearances for his national team. My young goalkeeper prospect in contrast isn't anywhere near to this. He's just been called up for his u21 squad. I'd just love to get this youngster tutored by this experienced goalkeeper (Who has decent stats as well). Every youngster would be glad to be tutored by someone of his calibre! (And my goalkeeper prospect is far off from playing international some day!) The only thing which stops him from beeing tutored is his current reputation, I believe. Come on! Who cares about someones reputation when it comes down to tutoring a player ...? It's his personal qualities! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thedore Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 Possibly reputation, but if im honest it all seems quite random. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
