Hi

When are the optimal time to dont pull a youth player, and wait for the season to end, so he can get the boost in youth academy?

And is there difference between when you should stop pulling 16 year olds up, and 17 years old?

Hi,

I'd recommend to pull 16y olds just in first or second week of the season. And only when you have really good training and regeneration facilities (at least 200+ both). You should also keep in mind, that pulling up 16y olds increases their loyalty by one point, but decreases their potential by one level.

In terms of 17y olds. The system counts the initial AI during the season according your training and junior facilities. If you have them on high level, it pays off to pull up the 17y olds during the last week in the season, ideally after the draft deadline, so they won't influence your draft standing.

If you pull a player at the end of the season that he is 17 years old, he will come out of youth school with less experience, than if you wait and pull him at the beginning of the season, when he has just turned 18 years old. Based on this, I would think, that it would be better to wait, and only pull him, when the next season starts. Or do you think he will come out of youth school with higher AI at the end of the season, when he is 17, than he will at the beginning of the season, when he is 18?

Yes, with high training and junior facilities (at least 200 both) 17y old will have better AI at the end of the season, than 18y old few days later at the beginning of the season.

Can you please explain this? As I was under seemingly a similar impression as Giraffoden, that the AI for players in YS would increase in a linear fashion throughout time based on the level of your training and YS but exp would only increase at the beginning of a new season making that the best time to pull.

Hi,

Same question for me, I actually just got a 17 yo player whom I’m planning to pull either right after the draft or at the beginning of the season once he turns 18. In both cases, he will receive a double boost (2× +8 AI). I own almost optimal facilities (250/250 and 220 for the youth academy) what is the best time for you to pull him ?

Ohh, I've just realized, that I forgot to reply on last peeloff's question, sorry for that.

Well, if I understood it correct, the increase of AI should somehow compensate the training, which your player would have had during the time, when he was still in the youth school. When you have training facilities 250, the system counts, how much he would train during those days, when he was in youth school. It's just speculation, but I think one of the thing which benefits those players in youth school is , that it doesn't reflect, that players, who are already pulled can be injured, while your player in youth school can not.

If you pull your player the first day of season your training facilities don't play any role in the AI of the pulled player and with every day 17y players get some "training compensation" while being in the youth school. The higher your training facilities, the higher the compensation and therefore you should have higher chance for better AI (there is quite high random effect of course). I've already seen 17y old players, who were pulled at the end of the season, with grades over 90% (with two boosts). On the other hand my experience with 18y old ones is quite bad, they never had top AI, usually are around grade 75-80% even with two boosts.

Thanks for your response, then the best move is to pull the player before he turns 18, right after the draft ?

Thanks

Yep, I'd pull him during those few days between the draft and the start of the new season.

This is sort of related to this topic. If you pull a player and then fire him, does this impact the draft position for future drafts?

It depends, if you retire him and he is not existing any more, then it doesn't impact your draft position. If you just fire him and someone buys him from free market, then it does influence your draft, because he is still in the game.
