Where is best to put my youth prospects? The ones who are either too young for a loan or not good enough to be put into the first team. So at Arsenal I've got Gnabry, Akpom and Bellerin in my youth team. Will they develop better in the u18 squad or should I put them into the reserves squad?
Or even leave them in u18 but make them available for reserve games for like 45 minutes or something?
I don't think any of those 3 actually become anything worth keeping on the game, but would be nice to get the most of them so they can join decent teams later on.
Another question, should I keep my 20-21 year olds who won't be good enough for the first team, in the reserves, or look to loan them out? Usually I just loan them all out, but then I end up with no one in the reserves so the u18's are forced to play and my reserve team are usually near the bottom.
Should I just keep them in the reserves and then let their contracts run out or what is the best option?
