Hi!

I was wondering if someone has experience with putting YC10 age at the highest.

The only use for them currently, for me, is to train them until they are worth about the maximum bank value and then sell them all to the bank. They usually take until 18/19yo before they are, so 4-5 seasons of training.

YC10 can generate players 3 years older than I'm currently doing. They will miss the match experience of those 3 seasons (27k experience) so will be significantly worse at that age, but if they get to the maximum value in 2 or 3 seasons from that point it would be a valid tactic, giving me 8 more spots to buy youths from the market and train up (coming to an extra profit of about 120 million over 4 seasons, or 30m/season). Of course you can sell academy players for more than just maximum bank value so if this works it's only feasible for people who don't have academies yet.

So I was wondering if that is possible for 18yo YC10's. Has anyone tried this already, and what kind of players can you expect to get?

I'm not sure if this helps much but I've been doing this with YC8 players for the last few months. The age range being 16-19.

I found that I was generally selling the 16 year olds  at the next transfer window (usually for around 1 million RSD) and buying better ones. By increasing their age to 19 they are worse prospects but come with more xp and more rating, and have been selling for around $3 million. 

I'm not sure how that would play out with YC 10 youths, but unless the players are good enough to keep long term the key issue is how fast can you make money from them.

Edit

Maybe try it with one YC10 player and see what he looks like.

I can't remember exactly but they have 3m-6m when they are born, you will definitely find it difficult to get them to bank maximum before they turn 22yrs.

Getting them as young as possible is much better than being older.

Yeah if they are only worth 3-6m it's not gonna work. I was thinking about them already being >10m or something, then it just might work out.

I think this strategie is only working when you sell them immediately after you get them. But even in this case it will not bring you gold any more on level 10 youth. Because nowadays people are overbidding the really young ones on the transfermarket.
