It'll increase the quality of young players coming through into your youth team each season. Can't recall if there's anywhere to check, can ask some people tomorrow.
Were you playing him whilst he was going downhill? I suspect as he's 32 (in my game) he'd start to tail off soon but so far he's been and has been a regular in my side (29 league starts from 33). Dunky has just got better and better and is now just as good, if not better than Greer.
I'm appraoching the end of my second season, having got promoted in the first season.
Just lost 3-0 to Everton in the FA Cup Semi-Final but 11th in the Prem with 5 games to go and pretty much safe from relegation.
I haven't done too much transfer wise either, as I enjoy using the current squad...
