| My first ever rejection, after over 200 days in the academy and no promotions this season  he was pretty rubbish but still, rude. | |

53, so not really. I'd given him a chance, he was in the 20s when he turned 17 and did put on a growth spurt but not enough to be worthwhile. And it didn't matter in the end anyway. | |

| I'm now up to 3 youths rated in the 70s. | |

| A big week coming up for my youth academy...
17 year old, 81 rated goalkeeper due to promote tomorrow; and...
17 year old, 93 rated left winger promoting on Monday.
Both have been in my youth academy since they were 13, so hoping for at least one return on the investment. | |

The keepers stats are lopsided, but the wingers stats are pretty even:
Keeper is 60/93/89
Winger is 89/94/96 | |

Winger is 89/94/96 Your winger stands a chance of making an all-90s player, but your keeper won't do as well. Not a bad return, though! | |

You have to be persistent and patient. They do turn up, even if your scouts are not top-notch. | |

My current number 1 is 35 years old; if I can get my new keeper up towards a 60-70 rating, he should be an able replacement with a couple seasons of training. | |

Lets hope they find some diamonds gems for me to train up.
Will I need better youth coaches to train them up? | |

All above 90,
Currently have a GK rated 97/97/97 who might turn 18 soon,
hopefully reach 100 first though. | |

I had two strikers do the same for me a couple of seasons ago. Very frustrating. Now have a 97/97/97 that has 7days left on his contract to promote in a few days time. Hoping he turns out all 90's FA's | |

Yeah also had a few players before, just 1 of those things, they usually come out on their level and sometimes a little worse, and a bit more rare that they come out better then preview. | |
