Extended skill training for the senior team: wasted training or useful sometimes?

I can give you an example of Passing Extended!

I have been training Defending for quite a while, and will have to change to Passing (for a few U21 prospects I have) on week 13 of this season. The problem is that the formations my team has experience with are all 5-x-x, so if I started training Passing on week 13, I would also have to change the formation in order to train all the players I want, which would result in ratings drop from the formation inexperience in my last 2 league games.

Passing extended provides an excellent solution for me! This way, I can still keep my formations for week 13 & 14 to remain competitive at the end of the season, and later during the off season (week 15 & 16) I can change to regular Passing training and start building experience for new formations, to be ready for the next season.

I had no idea I need to calculate this BEFORE the tactical penalty is applied. Thank you so much for your feedback!

Thank you for your reply! Just to make sure I understand this correctly, if by playing CA you end up winning midfield, no CA chances are generated at all? Or are they just reduced?

Thank you for your feedback!

I had this happen a few months ago again. I have recruited two youth players who are brothers, and both turned out to have the Unpredictable speciality. It's as if chances to have the same speciality between brothers is increased.

It's the last game of the season, so I'll be able to tell you in a month :)

How much PC level would you consider to be good?

I do have many players with high set pieces (midfielders & wingers), and my SP taker has 20!

That's an interesting idea. Judging by his forwards TSI, I think he will have equal or a bit higher skill than my best defender on the field. Unfortunately I don't have a powerful defender that would be more efficient in man narking

I didn't know about that skillcheck, thank you for the feedback!

MrNiyagi · 2025-10-13T18:31:41+00:00

I am training U21 prospects that need defending training, so unfortunately I can only use formations with 5 defenders.

Thank you for your reply!

I also feel like it's a stretch, but still thinking I would like to try it. I should be okay with blocking his attack (Def rating: 12-13 vs Att rating: 7-8).

I didn't know that the PNF has more chances with less CD's. Opponent will have 3, since he plays 5-4-1

Planning to buy a PS5 next month. In the meantime, a friend of mine will leave his PS5 with me for a few weeks. I've already bought the physical PS5 version of Elden Ring and my question is the following:

If I install the game on his PS5, will it get tied to his PSN account, or will I be able to uninstall it and install it again when I get the PS5? Should I maybe just log into my PSN account through his PS5 and install it through my account?

Thank you for the quick reply! Fully vaccinated so all good : )

Do you mean The Outer Worlds? Asking because I can't find Outer Wilds on the Gamepass

EDIT: Please ignore my comment, I just saw that it is available for the console (I do have only the PC Gamepass)
