lewcal Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Has anybody built a team with just players that have come from the youth acadamy and have won leagues and cups? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
9TSUF9 Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I'm working on it in my Everton save, I'm in 2017 and I have 7 players out of the 11 that are in my lineup who grew up in the youth academy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thandui Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 check Dafuge's thread in the Career Update Forum, he had his whole team do really well with just youth products, also he nearly won the world cup with them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewcal Posted June 23, 2010 Author Share Posted June 23, 2010 I'm working on it in my Everton save, I'm in 2017 and I have 7 players out of the 11 that are in my lineup who grew up in the youth academy Nice, I have only asked this question because I want to do this. I have only just learnt how to develop youth players right so I have only got one from my youth so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregt or smokey Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 not exactly, although on my madrid save ive got 11 youths out at newcastle who are my feeder team, most of them are playing regularly but im thinking of adding a new manager at newcastle and just playing them every week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

robzilla Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Yes I have done this with Frankfurt, won multiple league titles and cups. Got to the finals twice and the semis once of the ECL but didn't manage to actually win it. Got bored with the save in the end and started another but I'm pretty sure I would have won the champs league if I had carried out for another season or two.

WoGiTaLiA Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Not quite. I signed a couple of members in my team but the majority are from the youth academy. My GK, MC, AMC and SC are the only guys left who didn't come through and the youngest of them is the 34y/o striker. The AMC is the only one who won't be replaced by an academy kid, have a very tasty young Brazilian to do that job! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takamaru Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 In FM09 I did dafuge's challenge and ended u with Merthyr in the British Blue square south. For some reason, even though the youth facilities were just average, I was handed a bunch of talented players. After 4 years and by then in the 1st division 9 of my starting 11 came from my own youth. Was wonderful! I can imagine it might be more tough to achieve in top divisions, just as it is in real life Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
