FM24 Touch training position or role/duty

[Psychedelics_Heal]

Are more or less skills being trained when you train a position vs training a specific role like D(C) central defender + duty?

What are Pro’s /  Con’s of training position vs role/duty? Does it make a difference?

Training the position improves the players familiarity playing in that position while the attributes are not specifically trained. Training a role/duty improves familiarity and also focuses a players training on specific attributes.

I am personally unsure of good use cases for training position over role/duty. The only case I can think of off the top of my head is when you want to train the position but you want to allow the users attributes to grow naturally.

Yeah the assistant coach will set training position over role/duty for many players. Weird.

In my experience (Nintendo switch) when training is left to the assistant coach, they will start with position and then transition to role/duty for all players except goalies. Goalies are left as position.

 

That said, I think I have had the same assistant coach for awhile in my save, so I am unsure if there is a preference for what coaches will do.
