Damn when i look in a lot of countries i see a lot of good youth….my best youth player in all these seasons has been like 70 with a value of 200k….hows that possible? I mean this is my third championship in a row,youth gets a chance etc…what is wrong?

Youth’s quality is based on the country’s teams international performance throughout the seasons and the team’s division. If you look at the country ranking you’ll see that Germany is not well positioned, so this is the reason. If the german teams starts to perform better on Champions League and UEFA Cup the generated youths will gradually get better.

Cheers!

Is it possible for the weaker countries to get players with 90+ stats at all ?

It is. In the average there is a 3 point difference in each skill if you compare youths generated in the best positioned countries with those from the worst positioned countries. Let me give you an example (I’ll add that to the help later):

Consider a defender youth generated on the best positioned country. If you don’t consider the random factor, these will be youth attributes and improvement potential in parenthesis:

tackle = 70 (20)
passing = 60 (20)
shooting = 60 (20)
speed = 70 (20)
dribble = 70 (20)
control = 70 (20)

For the worst positioned country you just subtract 3 from these values, the potential is the same, +20. Remember that the player may not reach his maximum potential if you don’t have a good coaching department. A level 4 department for instance should be enough to unlock half this potential. With the random factor, the same player could look like this:

tackle = 68 (18)
passing = 64 (10)
shooting = 58 (25)
speed = 72 (18)
dribble = 72 (10)
control = 64 (12)

Hope this helps.

THANKS FOR THE answers guy, But if the difference is 3 i wonder what we are doing wrong because the best youth i have seen in Germany is like 70 and in the rest of the world i have seen shooters with 95 :S

The same in Italy (mediumticker) smithers. At least for my team. The best youth I have in this 6 seasons is a 82 Midfielder. :S This is pityful.

@ smithers & thorpedo:
do you mean the highest level at the start of a career or the highest skill level you achieved with german/italian players after all their improvement?

@ Gabriel:
what’s the maximum a player can improve (in each skill), 20, 25 ??

I mean the highest level I achieved with this player after developping.

The maximum limit is the amount needed to reach 100 in each skill…of course this is very rare :)

I’ll double check the youth generation process to make sure everything is fine guys.

@Gabriel:
that’s interesting. so every youth player can reach the 100 in each skill (or just the main skill?) – theoretically. a player starting with 59 in shooting has the same chance to recah 100 like a player starting with e.g. 73 in shooting ?

@ smithers & thorpedo:
the highest player level in Berlin has been 90 (1x) so far (12 seasons) – 1x 88 and currently 1 player 86 & improving.

Sorry Philipp, I wasn’t clear enough. When the player is generated he already knows his maximum potential. An attakcer for instance may start with 68 in shooting and have 23 points to improve in shooting. That means that he will reach 91 in shooting in the best case. I say in the best case cause a player will improve at most 39 times during his career, so if you are unlucky or have a poor coaching department you may end up with a, let’s say, 80 attacker.

Answering your question directly, no, a player starting with 73 have more chances to reach higher shooting than the one which started with 59.

@ Philipp: 12 seasons? so you’re talking about fastticker? In fastticker I have very good youth players (1x 96; 1x 94;1x 91; 1x 88;…)
But I’m talking about mediumticker (6 seasons). Maybe other teams in Italy have better youth, I don’t know.

JUst checking, my best one was like 70 if i remember correctly and i was able to get him like 76 at most….while other teams have players to 90+…no wonder it is hard to win from them in CL and thus we end up in a cirkel in which the german team always gets beat :S

Well since my last post i had around 3 or 4 new youth on ly and still got crap…..looking at spanish leaugue where some teams have all 90+ players with a lot of own youth all i can come to is;

Germany is officially dead together with argentina….

SOrry, but the gap has just become to big…..rich get richer poor get poorer etc….
