Browsing the Hattrick Hub gave me many ideas on how to get hattrick closer to the real thing. In fact I commented on some of the recent ideas as well. I did not however find one idea concerning this topic, so I am posting one myself, on a topic that is introduced in the title. My main complaint about keepers in Hattrick is simplicity. You look only for keeper ability, perhaps age, routine and rarely form to define the price you will pay for the keeper, one that could very well be the most important player on the field.

On to the suggestion. Like many managers in the game, I play football. I’m 29 and have some experience coaching teams and being captain as well. I know how important it is for a keeper to have some leadership. Keepers who do have it, in fact, raise their performance during the game, and on the other side it only takes a couple of mistakes for a keeper without leadership to start losing confidence during the game, regardless of their skill level.

So, my suggestion is to add leadership to the abilities that define a keepers overall skill, maybe directly like others second abilities are needed for outfield players, or maybe in a way similar to how special abilities affect the game.
