Tokened academy players

[Arion]

I sign the 0T to lower my average quality and release the other.

That's what I do.

I guess the youth players should have some games — in their age group. IMO there should be a new U-21 league for the youth (which may be 7-a-side?) The prize money can be 50% of the seniors. Also, the minimum age of a player in the seniors, and the maximum age in the youth squad, should be 21. In this way, the 2* youth get 3 seasons of games before their contract expires. Then we can decide whether to release them or keep them with us. But also, it'll make 18 y.o. less valuable. The U-21 squad should be available from Level 10.

The format can be, say, the U-21 and senior leagues have the same 14 clubs. The promotion of the U-21 side depends on the senior. But then being first will have no use. So the top four in the league qualify for a 32-team knockout tournament next season, which can be Q based like the Cup (since promotion depends on the seniors.)

It's clearly that something have to change there because I think over 90% of the U21 are not used by the originals owners of the players.

0T player = market next second or trained for neg.
4stars players = in most of the cases remain without a contract

In my opinion these players should cost only money and not tokens.

IMO the higher-* player shouldn't cost us anything - we've already paid to install and develop the Youth system at our clubs, why should Nordeus get paid every time the Youth scheme produces players for the First team?

I agree with you regarding this. The only thing manager should pay is their wage and nothing else.

We don't have a B squad first of all

Second, I've no object to the tokened players — it's frustrating to pay £££ after paying £££ to upgrade facilities. But isn't 26T a way too much? The range should be:
2*-0T
3*(0-2/5-7)-3T
3*(3-4/8-9)-4T
4*(0-1/5-6)-7T
4*(2-3/7-8)-8T
4*(4/9)-9T
5*(0-1/5-6)-15T
