Well both july and you have their own points, actually it goes down to the individual. For me I always prefer the young 18 years old fast trainers and i don't mind wasting the time and resources to groom them because last season I really don't have much luck with scouts. I got 2 scout immediately after taking over the team with 16 matches to go but my scout are returning with 5 or 6 performance while those young players that I got are giving me 7 to 8. So after round the clock hard training their quality improve and the performance improve with 8 and 9 and the the occasionally 7. I sold my 2 scout and change to youth training and it pay off. This season I can show you all my youth players statistics and hardly any of them is without a 9 in performance except for my 2 gk.
