    Those players suck big time and they are super slow learners no matter how high you get them in the Academy!
    In 98/100 cases you will get a much better player from the transfer market than from the Youth Academy!

    My 3 youth academy attackers AML, AMR and ST have not really performed to the level I expected, they keep missing big chances in games and struggle to score more than half their chances in many games.

    Sure I've won some trophies, important association games and more recently completed the northern tour event with them, but I know it could be better.

    My club legend who I got from the transfer market faced tougher opposition in its career and used to convert at least 3/4 of his chances and scored 2/3 freekicks. These youth academy players struggle to score 1/3 freekicks despite having high whites and over 160% quality compared to my club legend who was always between 130-140%
