Need some clarification on training.

So Training obviously needs to be tweaked some guys right off the bat drop off like nuts and whats driving me insane is that I simply cannot keep guys at the status quo for a year or beyond. I understand a 29 year old isnt going to improve but if I train one aspect all the others start dropping and stats go down to a point where I cant rely on them come 7 game series at the end of the year.
Phaneuf is a great example. Personal opinion aside he is a top 2 and will be for the next 4-5 years unless he suffers a catastrophic injury. Why then does he become a 7.5 just 8 months into the sim and a 7.0 going into the start of the 2014 season.

I have tried 3 new saves with different approaches, Living legend coaching staffs and nothing.

Next up is Potential Vs Age of drop-off. I have like 9 players under 25 yet they all seem to have maxed out everything even though the potential is there to be improved they don't and I'm stuck waiting for a 6.5a/7.5a 25 year old to turn 28 so his stats go down and potential disappears.
