The above calculation is standard. YA's are a gamble. Pure. Simple. Straightforward.
If managers want to ensure the standard of their youths, not have to release the rubbish they get, not 'waste' their money, not 'hate' the YA system.... close the Youth academy- I refer them to Line 2 again.
In my old age I am beginning to understand that many more people than originally perceived are masochists at heart..... because those same whiners never do shut their YA's! :p
Your Youth Academy- get used to it!
I think the problem is that the YA don't cost enough - the maintenance cost on 5* YA is only 400k per season which is honestly a sum that most teams could afford.
ReplyDeleteIf we were looking at costs of 1M+ per season in upkeep you can bet there would be a lot more teams closing their academies and the standard of youth grads would increase.
Please tell me that picture is photoshopped! :(
