I have no idea where these guys check the potential. I know sofifa.com lists potentials of players, but those are not always correct.

Ermmm...either we are talking about individual youth squads that differ from palyer to player in the CM or I am mistaken...

Dude we are talking youth squads and it displays the potential range. That is why i'm asking what the best you can get is. Last year I think it was the 79-95 range and the highest rated player I was able to get was a 69. This year I have come across an 85-99 potential player with a 73 rating already. Hence why I ask what the best is that anybody has seen.

I signed a 16 year old 52 overall as a backup for my Munchen team and played him a couple times. It's not a bad idea if you have a team full of 84-90+ and give one of the star players a rest (in my case Ribery needed a rest).

I too am having a hard time finding a decent candidate for future replacements, I ended up turning to global transfer system tof ind an already proven player but most of them aren't available.

Yeah, we are discussing youth players, not players already on clubs mate!

Would love it if you could get a kid at 16 rated 58 then 65 by 17 75 by 18 etc... But I personally have a none of that happen. They come in way too low 52ish and 4 yrs later they are 66ish... Once in a while you should have a kid go from 60 to 80 in a yr if they are a superstar potential.. Not take 4+ yrs

100% agree. It would be nice to occasionally have a young stud on your hands.

You can get those players, you just have to buy them from the stupid store thing.

Thanks dude, I'll give it a shot. Also anyone have tips/tricks to get other teams to bite on loaning your players out?
