My First Youth Academy Player...

Only the token ones though.
The 'free' I got with the one I'm training at the moment was a 2* DC/DR and his training speed was rubbish sadly (stretching on 'hard' was 13) so he got signed and sold straight away.

You could have taken the time to train him as a DL, and then get him on the negotiation list. Someone out there would have put a bid in on him for sure

Would have taken over 150 greens at least the speed of his training, and a lot of my own time, just to get a couple of million more than I got in transfer fees. That's less than one game gate receipts, not worth the hassle.
The other guy I got is a fast trainer, so concentrating on him and also recording everything as a guide on training speeds hopefully for others

Negotiation list is not for the money, its for the tokens

I know, but it's even less worth the effort for a couple of tokens when I can get that from a couple of 3 minute vids!
And I'm being generous with thinking i'd even get a couple of tokens, 99% of bids I get on my players on negotiation have no tokens at all in the bid!

Do those players have 3 roles though?

I know what your saying, but if you honestly think I'm gonna spend two or three days sitting at the computer training up an extremely slow trainer, using up a couple of hundred greens just for the sake of, and be honest here, 5 tokens maximum? then you're sadly mistaken, it's just a game!
Don't let me put you off trying it though on the next free academy dual role player you get though!!!

It is the beginning of a new season, so you can space those 2 or 3 days out to the whole season, and won't even need to spend that many green packs
