Questions for FM players

@EA_Aljo @In my opinion, the biggest mistake gamers make is having too many quality players in their squad. For example, the ratings of drafted players on a team increase very slowly if you have too many elite players. The same applies to top 6, top 4 players. The same applies to computer-controlled teams. If you want the draft picks to grow quickly in ratings on your team, then you have to reduce the quality of the players in the squad. I always set the draft quality to low
@EA_Aljo @I think another problem is that the players' potential doesn't fall or rise quickly enough. Too many high-quality players in a team inhibits growth. Especially older players, I don't mean those over 33, maintain their potential for too long, even if they play poorly for years. Other criteria should also be taken into account when growing. You can't determine the growth of a defensive defender based on the scoring output. EA should work on this
It's actually logical too. If there are too many star players, the ratings cannot grow because there is not enough ice time overall for them. It's the same with every team in leagues that have too many high quality players.
If a player with top 6 potential over the age of 23 plays primarily on the third or fourth line over a certain period of time, say a year, then his potential would have to fall to top 9 or bottom 6. The same applies to middle 9 players when playing in top 6 positions. Then the potential must be corrected upwards accordingly.
