I had the one pop I expected. He will be on the market starting tomorrow at around 20:00 HT time. 19 yo Solid PM.
My roster is a mess though. I have a huge glut of trainees and may have a fire sale in the next few weeks if I can't get some of the little twits to pop. Next week will be a pain in the butt, trying to get training for everyone.

Had a keeper pop to solid. Other trainee is only one week away from solid as well. And my form looks great as well--changing to 6 GK coaches and 4 asst. coaches has been a gooddecision (so far--knock on wood and other HT-god appeasments).
Helghallen, I know that once your 19yo turns 20, he'll take longer to train, but wouldn't your training regimen yeild far more profit if you trained them a level or two past solid?

form was kinda suck. My middie who was injured for two weeks dropped to poor, not really a suprise but I was hoping he wouldn't be part of the form change goup.
my last striker popped to solid finally.

Form is starting to go down a little, the IM I was planning on playing in the league match this weekend fell to weak form, and will now be pushed into the cup side only. Instead, I will be playing a different player. Other then him though, most were pretty steady and the rest of my league starters seem to be in good form for the late season run.

Training Stamina this week... so I had 21 pops. ;)
3 guys actually jumped up 2 levels, and form didn't take nearly the hit I was expecting. +2 / -8 is pretty liveable as far as I'm concerned.

He would take longer but the fact is I bought him as an inadequate late last season, when he was 18. I can sell him, buy a 17 yo and train him to the same age and make more money. In fact, once I sell him, I will have only one 19 yo trainee on the roster and he'll stay because he is already formidable :)

Had a winger go to excellent playmaking and my 3rd midfielder go to magnificent playmaking. Would like another winger to bump soon.

nada, but then I wasn't expecting any.
I've got 1 too many trainees too. Not that big a deal with my injuries I'm nursing. Got an original player IM who's too old, but he's my most experienced IM and my second best IM. He's about to pop excellent. I might sell him in the middle of next season's cash rich US Cup. In the meantime, I'm waiting for the other trainees to catch up to him.

I've also got one too many trainees. My main trainees are all 17 (except for one 19yo), but I've got one 18yo that I pulled this season and since he was inadequate I couldn't sell him but since my 17yo's were inadequate at the time I kept him around. Now he's around as injury cover and I guess I'll sell him if he pops to passable, or just get sick of him and fire him.
No pops, but I wasn't expecting any.

Two pops, one a defender who popped to weak PM :rolleyes: but I had a starting mid pop to outstanding as expected.
My three starting inner mids are now outstanding/brilliant/outstanding
One I bought and trained up, one is an original player I have from season 16 and the other was a youth pull. So these three inner mids cost me less than $200K IIRC.
