I swear that half an hour ago I had 5 tabs open on exactly this subject. This is weird but great, thank you!

I wondered why my HOYD wasn't bringing in "model pros" like his personality. Did some research and it turns out you have to go to Staff -> Responsibilities -> Staff -> Advice and reports and turn on "provides youth development information" and select your HOYD. It was previously done by my under 18 manager. I was also informed by my under 18 manager that his "influence and experience" have shaped the mentality of the players - so i'm now going to recruit an under 18 coach with a great personality. The game is very unclear and unhelpful when it comes to the question of maxing out your youth intake.

One more thing that matters massively when your selecting a HOYD is there tactical style, preferred formation, passing style, & 2nd formation. If u get HOYD that matches what ur trying to do in the first team tactic it produces players to fit the style and formation. Helps just like there personality traits do that he passes on. Hope this helps people out

SOme incorrect advice at the start. From a SI developer:
Youth Facilities
The training facilities available for Juniors (only).
Does NOT apply to visible players already at the club. All visible players currently at the club use Training Facilities regardless of age.

Check out Neil bath as a head of youth development all his coaching and knowledge attributes are above 15, the lowest attribute he has is a 16 and he has a determined personality and he is almost four star ⭐️

I got a bit lucky with this I think. Playing with hertha Berlin, I brought in a good head of youth development and improved youth scouting in the the first season. That second Intake was damn good, and now I have five of them in my first team squad in season five, including a striker I'm very very excited about

I have affiliate clubs where it says there is a possibility that they will send their youngsters through to our youth setup but in 3 seasons I haven't had one foreign player through my youth intake, but other clubs seem to get foreign players

[wilsonkok]

One other thing that helps - the personality of the Under 18s Manager is also relevant.
I found that out in my first West Ham save so I ended up quickly hiring a new, more desirable Under 18s Manager afterwards

The best informative video you have made Luke.You deserve all the credit in the World mate.Keep these gems coming.

[MrGlennJohnsen]

Tip for scouting:
Affiliate clubs in foreign clubs, especially clubs and regions where it's hard to find good scouts, also contribute to your scouting knowledge.
In my save (Man United) I have affiliate clubs in Poland and the USA, the only reason is to increase my scouting knowledge. The youth players I have are often good enough to get loan to good clubs when they're the right age or step directly into the first team as challengers and cup players.

Another thing to consider, if you want to keep a play style and formation, is hire staff with same tactical and play style your are using on your team, so they will bring more players that fit on your tactics

Another great informative video luke!! Keep them coming!

So I'm Man U, am half way through season 4, at the very start i got Norbert Elgert in as my HoD, work with youngster's 20/ judge ability 16/ judge potential 20/ professional/ continental pro license, thought he would do a banging job but so far after 3 youth intakes i haven't had anyone special come through, a couple of half decent 3 star potentials but that's it, being man u i never thought to look at increase junior coaching or improve youth recruitment and turns out i didn't have the best for either so maybe something as small as that has held back the quality of youth, obviously i have done them now so hoping season 4 intake might bring a gem or 2

How can you get a setup like that? And the faces (including the youth generated faces)

Hi, folks!
Offtopic question: FM 2020, how to negotiate the board to build the new stadium?
For example, Chelsea. After expanding - less than 50000. 9 seasons, top 1 club in the world, all cups, top income, but the board still refuses the new stadium because of the small fan base.
Is it really hardcoded limit in the game?

[GoheadGaucho]

Ill have the correct setup and more😅..and for the 4th season running..still..the best i got is 3 n half star.😩.thats why..i prefered to bought em from other youth intake..since i really dont know in which position i need to upgrade anyway so my tranfer budget is solely to bought youth player (17 yo below)

Plus. It is kinda enjoyable to have control(buy) of players you assemble for the u17 rather than hoping to get it from youth intake.. ive spend 55 mills on 16yo southampton english prospect this season lol.. he was 135 in CA and had consistent trait as well.. crazyy how much english player prices is..but its a great if u had an establish squad..n dont have to worries about signing player for the first team.. 👌👌

In my utd are crazy cheating on youth intake.. they got the very best every year

[Joneserinn]

Great video mate. Could you please inform me which facepack and skin that is?
