Mikegenius59 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Just completed second very successful season with a team I set up from scratch in VNLS, and my right wing back has just accused me of breaking a promise to play him in his favourite position - right wing back. I am as pleased as punch with his performance over the two seasons and I would hate to lose him over a complete non-issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grifty Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Sometimes (all the time?) they also ask for the mentality, so Support or Attack as well. Did you not keep to that part? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikegenius59 Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 Hmm, I don't think he asked for anything too specific, getting up and down the wing is his strength and I just let him get on with it. He is in the Vanarama League, he isn't even my best right back on paper, but I like his style and tend to pick him ahead of the better player.

IbrahimAliMaher Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Yeah I learned a while ago to never make any promises when it comes to position, as even if it's slightly off they throw a wobbly. The same applies for loaning players as other managers get irate that you're playing for example, a natural box-to-box MF as a box-to-box MF when you accidentally said you'd play him as a ball winning MF, even though it's not his best role (happened to me once).

Is it possible that you promised to play him in the wing-back position, but actually played him in the fall-back position with the wing back role?

sporadicsmiles Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I try to avoid these promises as much as possible. Make sure you played him in the role and duty you promised. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
