Will or did you buy FM 2009?
Of course!Not sure yet
No, it's worse than FM 2008
No, I'll wait for 'pirates'
Bringing youngsters up
Quick jump menu:
I use a training called 'Tug Training' and have no Youth Team coaches which means my 7 stars coaches have to train them.
My under 18's seem to improve enough.
the trainings that ground_fold posted are really good.
if you got good coaches then most of your youngsters will most probably reach their potential.
but you dont want to make everysingle one of your youth player reach their potential.
i just look at those who have good potential, if they got around 135+ in potential ability then those are the ones i will care about. because those can bring u in some money later on, they might be helpful as back up for your team after a few years. or might become good players for your team.
I always find a lot of cheap youngsters in South America, but can't get work permits for them. So if I send them to an affiliate to gain EU nationality will they still reach their potential? It's just that my affiliate is a small team, who don't have good youth facilities.
| zarconi : This is along the same lines, so I thought I'd post it here.. I always find a lot of cheap youngsters in South America, but can't get work permits for them. So if I send them to an affiliate to gain EU nationality will they still reach their potential? It's just that my affiliate is a small team, who don't have good youth facilities. |
dont know, how can u sign a youngster from south america? i mean i cant get them even though they might be without work permit.
i never send my youngsters to feeder clubs though.
It takes 3 yrs though so if anyone knows whether he'll reach his potential that'd be great as I have my eye on a few more. It's all about building for the future!
| zarconi : Same as you'd sign anyone else, but if they don't have a work permit they can't play so must be loaned out to someone until they gain EU nationality. Maybe it only lets you do this if you have an affiliate for avoiding work permit regulations? I've just bought a 17 yr old brazilian defender for £1k, just as a test. His tackling is already 19 so at the least I should make a tidy profit.. It takes 3 yrs though so if anyone knows whether he'll reach his potential that'd be great as I have my eye on a few more. It's all about building for the future! |
i dont get it, i cant sign them? i mean they might accept ur offer but they wont get a work permit to even come to ur club. so how can they come to ur club witout a work permit?
Maybe it depends on what club and country you're in, or if you have an affiliate to send these players to?
thnx that explains alot.
Snap the good ones onto a full Pro Contract and get them training on a medium to heavy aerobic & first touch regime for their physical stats as well as basic technical abilities.
Get them into your first team wherever you can and trust them.
If you want these to be your world beaters and leaders of your team in 2-3 years, you need to stick with them.
Alternatively, just buy Pablo Piatti as soon as the game starts and put him in the whole behind the strikers (AMC) and let him wreak havoc in opposition defenses.
Also, when signing the wee ones, don't always concentrate just on technical stats.
Obviously they need at least a few decent figures technically, but a player with good mental & physical stats will develop and cope with first team football better than one one with purely technical.
Look for good Natural Fitness, Determination & Technique.
The rest is a bonus.
