How would you sign players

[stuinbucks]

Hello all,

As the title suggest, looking for info on what you would do.

I always start lowest league in England and never seem to stay at a club beyond 2-3 years before I move up the leagues. Only when I get a Premier league job do I tend to stay long term.

So in the early part of my career, how would you sign players for the 1st team given I won't stay long term

*Potential ability
*Current ability
*Attributes that fit your tactic
*Something else

Just wondering how others approach this?

Thank you

first thing i do setup the tactic and style of play i want, build my team to suit that tactic, then scout 3-4 players that can play in the positions i want, then look at my weakest area and try to invest heavy in the first team, after 2 seasons i then start to look at the youth academy and look to sign players under the age of 21 that can be trained to play in this tactic
