Week 10 Youth Pull

Another mediocre talent off of the youth squad this week. Still, he might make a halfway decent striker trainee for someone. He will be listed for $1,000.

Michael Herron

19 years old, passable (6) form, healthy.

A pleasant guy who is balanced and honest.
Has disastrous (1) experience and poor (3) leadership abilities.

Nationality: American
Assessed Value: $10,000
Wage: $540 per week

Stamina: Wretched (2)
Playmaking: Poor (3)
Winger: Poor (3)
Scoring: Inadequate (5)
Goaltending: Disastrous (1)
Passing: Weak (4)
Defending: Weak (4)
Set Pieces: Poor (3)

We’ll probably be calling up a goalkeeper next week. It’s not that we necessarily need one, but it seems like the talent level in the outfield is pretty diluted right now, and we’ve never promoted one of our keepers.
