Patrick27 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I'm playing as Sunderland in 2012 and so far haven't produced any world class regens through the youth teams. Can this be helped in any way. Also I'm playing on FM08 if that makes any difference. Thanks in advance, Patrick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Try and get the board to improve your youth facilities. Then train them well, tutor them, loan them out and give them first team action. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick27 Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 Thanks jod123. Do you need good scouts as well because i have top class youth facilities but still fail to produce any. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I don't think scouts would have any impact on the players that you produce. However you can use them to scout the world and poach other clubs best youth players if you want. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably a decade, if ever, away from building up my lower league club and upgrading to a decent youth academy. I poach players as often as possible.

4-1-2-1-2 Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 sorry but how do u poach a youth player to your club. I did sign a player from another club under youth contract. When he came over, he is still under a youth contract until 17 yrs old to sign a professional contract. But when I check the home grown status, he is not considered 'trained by club' unlike my original youth team players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would not be "trained by club" as me must have trained at least 3 years with you when he was under 21. He will not be until he fulfills those requirements. He may be trained by association though if you signed him from another club in the same country to yours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akaz1976 Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I think in FM08 regen quality in general is bad. Very few worldclass regens in FM08 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kopsy101 Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 im liverpool in 2016 in fm08 and i have 1 regen who will be world-class in a couple of seasons. apart from that i got 1 from middlebrough and the rest are spanish and italian. still use bojan, fabregas, richards, sakho, dos santos, messi in my first team though.

Patrick27 Posted December 17, 2008 Author Share Posted December 17, 2008 Cheers lads, was just hoping that I could produce a world class regen instead of getting them other clubs you would never hear of before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
