Lower league first season tips for scouting and team rotation...

How to find player...


Scouting > player search > filters --:
contract status - expired
nationality - eu national
position - eg Amr
then base attributes around player position your are looking for at around 9-10 and
have 7/9 match (eg. Crossing, dribbling, passing. Anticipation... And so on - some
attributes used for my wingers)
This should give you a decent choice of homegrown and possibly foreign depending
on scouting range that I will explain shorty....
Now when looking for players its always good to have a good scouting team, with
adaptability, determination, and obviously judge pp and judge pa.
Usually you only have a small amount of staff members as most lower leagues so
often do, so this is where utilising foreign staff members comes into play. Always
make sure they have good adaptability as this helps them work in other country's, this
comes in very handy with learning the language
I would advice to sign as many players as possible so that if a player starts to perform
from team 1 or 2, (explained in a second) you can profit from them and invest in club
right away with youth or training facility's.
Team 1 and Team 2

Team 1 consists of star players and some youth players weighting heavily onto more
stars than youth but rotating when cup matches end to the 18-24 group
Team 2 is mainly youth and signed players of between 18 -24 who I think could
possibly become 1st team or even sometimes become star players or money
makers..
As youth players at this stage never amount to anything this only works for first
season but utilising the team 1-2 style works a lot for me guys...
18-24 group
This is players who I bring in from loans, free signings and even reserve squad...
Most amount to nothing in lower league but this squad group are so useful when
injury's crop up as they are fit and also never feel left out and complain. Keep these
players on 1-2 year deals with low yearly increase if any at all.
