How do I stop youth team managers from using first team tactics??

[jcp1417]

I have a very specific formation that I'm using in my first team due to a specific player. Since he'll move on in the next year or two, I don't want my youth teams playing with that tactic. How do I set it so that they do not play with my first team tactic? Even better, I'd want to dictate the tactic that my youth teams use

Go to dev. centre and then the corresponding youth team. You should be able to change the tactic there.

I'm controlling training so I cannot change anything on that screen.

 

Note that my tactical options are grayed out

 

I can change the tactic that they are training on but the playing tactic doesnt change unless I change my first team tactic

It appears that I have three options:

give up control of youth training,

Don't care that my youth team is using wrong tactics,

or change my first team tactics to what i want my youth team to play before each match.

 

All options suck

What you need to do is, delegate your youth training, confirm it, then go to Dev Center and change the youth team's tactic. Then re-assume control of youth training. The setting will stay, but sometimes I have seen it take a few in-game days to take effect on the tactics screen. But once they play a match it should definitely be using the tactic you set.

What if you use the No. 1 spot for the tactic you want your youth team to play and use the No. 2 spot for the tactic you want to play?

Just a wild guess...
