Play well for an 18 YO? sure? Play well relative to the league, probably not. I like how you ambiguously word things though. I can see a 18/19 YO score ~15 points in a game in a top league, but I'd imagine the people on the court with him were good enough to cover the obvious blaring difference in skills.

The whole point of this thread is discussing whether an 18 YO trainee is overrated or not. Obviously you think so. I don't think they're overrated, but some are quite outrageously priced.

As mentioned, which you failed to address, an 18 YO will have a whole season of pops more than a 19 YO. Add on the fact that 18 is the fastest year of training. This gap keeps widening the later you start. An 18 YO will also have an extra season of playability than a 19 YO, again this gap widens the later you start.

Sure, not all of us want U21, or NT. But I play this game to win, and get to the top. I can't speak for others in this case. However, my logic is, if I want to be the best, I'll have to build the best team I can. Now how will I do that? Buying players I need, and training top players. The first part is based off the transfer list, while the latter part is based off training. If I want to train top level players then I want the best training available, regardless of U21 or NT.

But If you do if you find one good 18/19 yr old and train him the right way just one a very good one.,He will be putting up big games in top league. it has happened and can happen. That's not myth it has happened 15ppg in top league is very good for 18 yr old. Im not going to name, names. because these players DO NOT EXIST.

I fixed part of your post. I don't think my lifespan (or, really, BB's) would afford enough time to fix all of your post.

in reality of bb the 18 yr old will always be better. Theres no argument to that. Only valid argument to that is the managers behind that playing him and training him the right way.

This is were the 19 yr old can be better on BB in the long haul. Its falls down the managers.Not everybody will create every youth to the best for his/her team. All training is differ for each team needs. Starting in the wrong area is a set back for youths. Thats were the 19 yr old will be better.

Im not dis agreeing with any points you made, Just expanding the topic.I dont think a 18 yr old is overated, i think its to many ways to expand a player to make that claim. it depends on the managers, way of play and correct training on who will be better
