Currently managing Aalesunds FK in Norway; planning to make them into a top side that will eventually produce players for the national team. However I'm concerned about Norway's relatively low youth rating (82 out of 200 according to the editor). Videoton10 posted earlier today about his struggles in generating Hungarian players despite having max youth recruitment (he couldn't generate newgens w/ anything over 150 PA). Hungary has a youth rating of 68 so I'm hopeful that the players I generate could have good enough potential. That being said, I have a two questions:
1) Is it possible for Norway (or any nation with a lower-ish youth rating) to generate a world class player? Obviously nations like Brazil and Argentina are going to churn out world-class youngsters year after year, but can Norway get lucky and get a once in a generation talent? Or does the youth rating act as an absolute cap on PA meaning a nation can never get lucky and generate one amazing player?
2) Can this rating change in-game? (i.e., Norway wins the World Cup so their youth rating rises because obviously they have progressed as a footballing country.)
Anything you guys can come up with would be appreciated! I know I could just download FMRTE and change this in-game, but I would really like to play this save without "cheating" and I am really interested in how the nation youth rating works.
That being said, I think it would be fair to assume that based on good performances by the national team you could justify altering the youth rating to accurately reflect the country football standing.
Cheers!
