Reserve or Yoof teams

Go to the player listing.

Untick the training radio button at the top left.

Now on the right hand end of each player's row there is an up/down arrow that allows you to promote and demote players.

brilliant, cheers

Got a 4.5 pot australian defender today. Exciting. Can play DL or DC

Ahh, if only you didn't take your Aussie side seriously you could send him the YF's way without telling anyone! ;-)

My best pull just got him yesterday! 4.5/5 star potential. In the position I need as well!

Everyone seems to be pulling top players these days, I was pretty rapt with my two 3.5 star midfielders but maybe I'm still getting the dregs of TM!

We appreciate your sacrifices for us. Without people like you taking the rubbish players they'd still be in the pool when it was our turn to draw new youth players. So, a heartfelt thanks, mate. Well done.

Well I got a 3* & 4* today, but surely someone is having a laugh.

The 3* is a Forward with Finishing 1

The 4* is a Left Back with Marking 3 & Tackling 5 

Going to hire both of them and hope with serious training I can do something about it.

That's fine, just change their position. *rolls eyes*

The 3 star striker sounds like a classic TM move, where the youth development scout is probably wrong by a mile.

Pulled a 4.5 star striker for my nz team! 

This is just after downgrading my youth academy a couple of levels. Hmmm. 

that makes no sense!

Looking to give my youngsters a run, anyone up for a Quick Match?

always keen

Well happy enough to pull a 4.5* Left wing today, meet Tony Gray, tempted to put him in as my sub winger straight away, for the first time in a while my scouts actually say 4.5* as well as Youth Dev.

great stamina and passing already, really low crossing for a winger though, would almost be worth spendng the 100 pro days to make him a CM.

my worst scout has him at 4.5*, (only 15 youth) I'll get my 20 youth scout to check him out when he returns.

And I agree with N-bomb, get him on the bench now to build his routine.

Put him on the bench immediately and on a wing training schedule, might change it to focus more on crossing as that is his clear weakness.

I used Duncan Bates to scout him Sen: 19, Yth: 20, Dev: 20, so reasonably confident in what he says around stars.

Will get his first game off the bench tonight. Thinking I am going to change to Wings as my attack method as my wingers and fullbacks seem a strength of my side. And my striker can head the ball reasonably well.

Just pulled a 4 star player, only problem is that he's a DMR! Might have to hold onto him for when my 3.5 MR gets old and start a different formation.

pulled a 3.5 potential MR and put him up or sale immediately - already at 2*, also pulled a 4*potential CM which is what I really wanted, need some back up for my aging CM.

Grabbed two 3.5 star guys today, both in positions where I have good depth, should be able to train them up and use them or sell them so pretty happy.

check out the two I pulled today - pity I wont have the cash to buy them until tomorrow!!!

Nice! Going to sell them or train them up for your first team? 

I got my usual nothing. Which is ok, because I'm 7mill in debt and that would have got about 35-40mill worse today. May need to sell one of my starting players :( its a very bare looking squad I have now. 

dc will go stargiht into the starting lineup, then the cm will move there when he hits 3.5/4* which will mean I can sell one of my imports.

That's always a good thing. 

yeah, and maybe when they new guys have done the job for a few seasons I'll sell them for mega bucks.

FINALLY, FINALLY!

Ivan Hyde - my first five star prospect, and he's a striker, and only 15. Going to have to build up his routine massively.

I hate you. 

Sorry, I mean...I hate you. 

Dammit. 

What I mean to say is, congr...I hate you. 

Argh. Let's try this:

Well done...you bastard. Close enough. 

very nice indeed.

Finally got a 4.5 potential guy. DML/DL. Pulled as a 4 star, scouted as a 4.5

Also got another 4 star guy who I'll probably sell of when he reaches 18.

pulled anbother 3.5* player, I have 2 now that I can't afford, both 20 sitting on 2* at the moment, so I'll buy them play them in the yoof team for a bit then sell them early next season.

I desperately need an age accelerator.

My star number 1 goalie retired, and franlky, my reserve guy has not developed as hoped. He's still a 9200 SI 2.5 star fill in if you're desperate guy. I had hoped he'd be 15,000+ 3.5 stars by now. Oh well.

So I have two potential super goalies in the pipelines:

1. Quite promising... http://trophymanager.com/players/91931099/Ian_Renton/#/page/history/

and

2. Really promising... http://trophymanager.com/players/91735903/Ed_Moir/#/page/history/

I just need them ready to play and/or sell now, not later.

*sigh*

I'm in a similar position, I have club stalwart Jim Duck who has played over 150 excellent games for the club but is now 31 and declining, Damien Armit was meant to be his short-term replacement but his routine and skills still aren't quite there in comparison to Duck, and then there's 4.5 star potential Craig Flower who is the long-term Kiwi keeper I'm hoping for but needs another 2 seasons at least until he can be started.

Tough dilemma - do I stick with Duck for another season after this, buy an old foreign keeper for a few years or give Armit a run next season?

Play Armit ahead of the Duck. It's not like the Duck is THAT much better...
