tuesday march 9 - 20:38 I think it's a lot more nuanced.
The cost of both FA 1 and YA 1 are fairly insignificant if you are filling Stadium 10 every match. It's the high level ones that really hurt. The extra cost for FA1 is around $9 million per season and roughly $13 million for YA1. By comparison Stadium 10 with Catering 10 generates nearly $300 million.
They may slow you down a bit when saving for Stadium 11 but they will speed up any farming which potentially increases the profits.
Although it's true that no-one really wants YA 1 players if building a good team, I do like buying them as they make great crops for the farm. I probably buy more YA 1 than anything else.
