Hong Kong is probably knee deep in "businessmen" and I imagine the coach has 0 interest in messing up his national team and will be 100% focussed on having the best team at all times.


Do you think of OP as one of the "businessmen" you mention? I mean, what has playing for U21 got to do with higher price in the market? Only people from the same country as that player can get something from him in form of raised merchandise which would probably be around 5-8k per week, which is nothing to write home about. Especially because it lasts only as long as your player plays for U21, which is not very long.

Huh? Why shouldn't players for other countries' U21s not help with the merchandising? They help less, agreed - but that's solely because they're not playing in their home country.

And playing for the U21 has no disadvantages, while giving the player additional experience.

Until now I thought I had no bonus in merchandising if I have a U21 player for, let's say, your country.

I thought it was a modular system - i.e., you get increases in merchandising for any of the following:

player X...
- was drafted by your team
- is from your country
- played a U21/NT match this week

The "businessmen" know that they can sell a player who is on an U21 team for more than the identical player who is not. It just has a strong psychological effect on potential buyers.

I think the bonuses could be modular but I think there are more modules.

Drafted player
Local Player
Playing on an U21 team
Playing on local U21 team
Drafted player playing on local U21 team
etc
