How to use B Team?

[jammy8892]

I'm playing as FC Porto and have Under 19s, Under 23s and B Team squads. I'm struggling to understand how best to use my B team.

Players who are 15-17 sit in my u19, when they are 18-20 move to my u23 (if not good enough for first team yet). Anyone older than this should be good enough for my first team otherwise they're sold or released. 

Should I be using the B team as a development pathway? It seems like it clashes with the u23 in terms of age range.

Thanks

agreed the u23 and B team does clash/overlap somewhat.

However, how many levels of Portugal do you have loaded? the B team does play in a competitive competition if you have the leagues loaded, which will provide them far better development than in the u23 league.

of course its a good place for your fringe first team players to maintain some fitness and development as per usual, regardless of age.
