Just some quick questions for you. What would you do if you were in my position?
Begin buying coaches or keep expanding my stadium. I got a stadium with 2640 capacity.

I was just thinking of buying coaches, because if i am going to survive this league one more season, i have to figure something out fast, since my formation works fine, but my players ain't good enough for it.

Is there any specific formation that i should go with, and in that case, what would be the most handy for me? I am playing a fine defensive line, but since my WR's sucks, then i need some other play.

Hope some of you can help.

Assuming that you do have the Fitness Center maxed out, you could go for coaches. Just make sure your budget can handle it and remember that you should hire all 20 at the same time - not incrementaly. And that the engine requires that you have more money than they require for one week... can't remember how much...

It's 390.000$

And no didn't take in action that i needed the fitness center.
Should i only focus my players training on Physicals? Except the QB of course.

Rule of thumb is that you should focus on physicals (except your QB prospect) and do this by training physical while building Fitness Centre and Fitness coaches. That way, you quicker can see the caps of your players and have not wasted time and money (and BPOS) on weak (capping) players playing LOS and slow (capping) players playing CB just because the engine thought that they looked like a D/L-Line or DB when the player was created.

Once capped on one (or both) physicals find the right spot for your player and then, when - I'd say 50% of - your starters are capped begin looking into which trainers can help (defensive / offensive) or if you need a training hall.

I have done this and have both found hidden gems (players capping at 20) and being able to transfer them to the right position quickly.

True. I haven't had it explained like that before, now i finally get why physicals are that important.
Thanks Sred.

If your stadium capacity is only at 2640, you need to build that stadium up first before getting coaches. It should only take about a season and a half to 2 seasons to get full VIP and Exec seats. After you reach that, you'll have plenty of money coming in to make coaching and facility decisions.

Though the advice on capping physicals is good, its not good now.. As PHI said, get full VIP and full/most executive seats first.. Its also alot better to drop down a league than making bad decisions to stay at a certain level your team might not be ready for.. Maybe try to pick up cheap 3,5+ stars at 16-17 yo so you have the talent ready when you get the fitness centre+20 fitness coaches..

Edit: Im a tard, you cant drop down a level from V in ASE..

as said above, i would not ignore the physicals on QB now as if the new engine comes a certain degree physicals should be needed. it was mentioned if too strong it will affect his throwing so i would assume too weak will also affect it.
