Today’s pick shared his name with the founder of a large U.K. supermarket chain.

He turned out to be 0.5 star.

It's taken a while but today I finally found a five star youth pick. Good intelligence and consistency too.

That's a pretty horrible run, but on the bright side, you aren't getting high talents that will age one year in a matter of weeks.

Have had three 5* youth pulls in my time here, and two of them were pulled in the second last week of the season. Strangely enough, all three were 18yo.

Be happy when you get garbage this late in the season. I pulled a 1.5* guy today.

No, others have had issues as well. I used to track every youth pull I had for several seasons and during a three season stretch managed to pull maybe 5 players that were 3.5* or 4* talent. No 4.5* talent or higher during that stretch either. I stopped tracking because it was too depressing.

That's my major argument against building the youth academy. You may get to choose from more players, you may get to see some of their skills to help make a better choice, the players also start out with slightly higher skill points to reduce the amount of training needed to get them competitive in big leagues, but it does nothing to increase the chance of a better talent. And as we all know, it the talent isn't there, there's really no need to waste time training them.
