s0ni42 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Always my first order of business on the job. Naturally style, formation, team rep play their (major) part.

dothestrand Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Athletic Club's HOYD is poor stats-wise, so I ditched him for Wim Jonk, who's available on a free. Excellent spread of stats in coaching, knowledge and mental. Personality is light hearted which may or may not be good! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toffee71 Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Always, always Phil Cannon at any biggish club upwards and for last few years is unemployed at start. Also he used to work for Everton anyway. I let him bring in the kids as well and he will always find you a gem or 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KlaaZ Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 FYI, your HOYD has little to no impact on the quality of players that come through the youth system. He does have an impact on their personality and positions though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PT-KK Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Probably the best HOYD in the game is Porto's one, Armando Carneiro. 20 for Judging Potential and Ability, 18 for Working With Youngsters and 20 for Determination with a Driven Personality. Plus, Favorite Formations are 4-2-3-1 and 4-1-4-1. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PT-KK Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Sorry, assumed so because the date that he joined was the beginning of July. Forgot that I had started with the Netherlands date, which is a bit earlier than that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been confirmed in other threads that the influences for quality of youth intake are youth facilities (PA), junior coaching (CA), level of youth recruitment (which influences both PA and region I believe) and youth coaches (i.e. higher star youth coaching will improve the quality of your youth intake). The only thing the HOYD influences is the personality and positions of your youth intake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely agree and is IMO the best HOYD in the game bar none. Since I mainly play in Germany, he is my go to HOY. I tend to sign my HOY to the nation I am managing in at the time but like I say, this is mainly Germany so Bernhard is the perfect choice. Starts unemployed now as it happens as left HSV. No better signing for free when it comes to staff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of his attributes are otherworldly. The only downside to it is that he needs huge wages to be convinced to take the position, but if you're a big club it's manageable.

Yeah, good shout, never really thought of him as an assistant tbh. Stefan Freund is my go to for assistant manager, another beast alongside Bernhard.

Trucce Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I usually go for Roberto Samaden from Inter. I've done so for a couple of FM games now. Edit: The salary is in Swedish Kronors. So no I'm not paying him to much. :P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blubz Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Does it matter if your HoYD is from overseas? Say an english team but hiring Bernhard Peters/Roberto Samaden.

Doesn't matter and improves scouting knowledge too. And as if by chance here are some I have found whilst searching for scouts.

Mardy Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 My go-to is Romuald Peiser, he's a model citizen and has been for the last few years. Sign him as a keeper, tell him he could be coach when he hangs up his boots, then offer him a job as head of youth. His stats are poor but model citizen is great for youth intake.

It's also been confirmed in other threads that JPA/JPP and Working With Youngsters does have an influence on selected players in each youth intake (probably among the better ones) and that the HOYD influence on position spread is minimal.
