[Official] Top Eleven 9.0 - New Youth Academy

Think we should reserve judgement till for 2 or 3 cycles. We might be able to identify which are the guaranteed FTs. If we can identify them, I think it’s better. If we can’t, then yes I agree the older one might be better.

The fact that we get 4 18 yo's round about 70% (two free and two for a couple of tokens each) makes it instantly better than the old system in my eyes
A few hundred greens at them, the same repeating every season, and that's me never having to go to the transfer list again!

I actually didn't like that all the players were so high in quality even without any training. We can't choose to stop the youth training as well. But I am thinking in terms of saving tokens on players we can use to lower quality. So to me, that's a minus.

I really don't wanna waste greens on anyone that isn't a fast trainer. I had a 22 year old train faster than an 18 year old before so I really value FT. But if we can identify easily which are fast trainers, coupled with our investments. We could have a pretty good young fast trainer before we even start using our precious greens. So only if we can identify fast trainers will it be better to/for me.

I get around 600 Greens a season so they're not that precious to me. I only ever use them for training youngsters so this works in my favour I'd say.

Fair enough. But would you use a substantial amount of greens on a youngster who isn't an FT?

No, but they'll be easily identified quickly and just raised to around 100% and no more, which is what I'd do if they came from the transfer market.
The fast trainers are the ones to concentrate on, the slower trainers can still be useful

Sounds good. Anyway I just hope we are able to identify the FTs during the recruitment stage. Would prefer it to being random but I guess if it's random and even the free youths might be FT. It would be good too
