Exceeding Player Potential?

I've started a new Arsenal game. For a little fun I'm building a team round Fabergas and getting rid of everybody else except the youngsters.

Wilshere

Lansbury

Gibbs

Bartley

Merida

Randell

Murphy

Coquelin

Bartley

etc, etc

Basically if I give these regular first team football from the start, can for example Gibbs become a top class player?

I'm also manager of Salamanca so I can manger Arsenal players I send there on loan.

well all those youngsters are class, but i dont think that they can grow past a certain level. having used genie scout (yes i cheated ) every player has a certain potential, but im no expert on the subject...

gibbs already is a class players

Massive levels of first team exposure can harm a players potential.

They can suffer burn outs if they are played too much, and they are still developing so dont expect great performances.

I predict your Arsenal team will fail miserably in your current season.

not always. sakho. but sometimes yes they do burn out, though these kids should do all right. dont expect any huge trophies quite yet though

Sakho is 18/19 in the game, by then most players are able to play most games in a season, but the OP is talking about 16/17 year olds, who are not devoloped to an extent where they can become first team players instantly.

This should be in the Good Player & Team Guide or Stories Forum please, not GD.
