not to mention that having leagues with 5 division levels fully active and giving them each a hall of famer or all-time great would create an even bigger gap in the national teams competitions...

When I was 3th league I got these 2 players:
Season 3:
(3132110) <--- NT player
(3132076) <--- 4 times MVP of the season and also NT player
and 3th player (2nd round) of that same seaosn:
(3132100) <---

When I was 2nd league I got these players:
Season 4:

(4789461) <--- sold for 93k
(4789467) <--- he had good skills, but too small for C (sold after 2 seasons for 578k)
(4789476) <--- fired

And now in top league I got only one player that deserve training for 4 seasons!!!

Here are all my drafted players in top lvl league:
Season 5:

(5964877) <--- sold for 1k
(5964893) <--- fired
(5964897) <--- fired

Season 6:
(6916730) <--- FIRST AND ONLY GOOD PLAYER IN TOP LVL LEAGUE
(6916702) <--- sold for 80k
(6916689) <--- fired

Season7:
(8181374) <--- I cant sel him after 1 seasons for 150k :P
(8181393) <--- sold after 1 season for 93k
(8181378) <--- fired

Season8:
(9550005) <--- looks like good, but terrible potential, height and age! :P
(9550046) <--- fired
(9550040) <--- not fired yet :)

So what is the result?
-4 seasons in top league, from 12 possible players only one was good, and one looks like good but P,H and A are bad!


Now I have checked my friends from 3th, and 4th lvl league... and all 3 drafted players are good! One is excellent if I can see (A,P,H), and other 2 are also good enough. Can you show me one team from 3th or 4th lvl league who has fired at last 2 of 3 drafted players? ;)

the one you got now, 19 years and star potential and 203 is similar to one I had, and built it up to a sensational stat, a couple of prominent, has great secondary skills...
don't ignore him just because he's a star
and yeah, a friend of mine, last season, fired all 3, season before that he was in div 4 and fired 1, sold two for less than 100k total I think...
so yeah, it happens desava se

I can see 2 superstars drafted in season 7 and 3 superstars in season 6. I believe none of you are spending any bucks on scouting, that's why you're draft picks are so scattered around. If you are not spending any money on scouting you can spend it on the young players other people draft and sell. Not every league has to have 10 MVP+. It's called random, just like getting draft info. Sometimes draft is good and sometimes it's crap.

The draft is good enough as it is bringing fresh trainees into the game every season. The draft is not supposed to give you a finished product superstar that will walk into your starting lineup unless you're in the bottom couple of divisions.

Youth academies are a byproduct of football and HT. Let's leave the football boots alone when we're in BB. I'd prefer to BB to move AWAY from HT and not emulate something which I gave up on.

Edited : Forgot to set it to be addressed to Ozzy, sorry Kukoc.

one or hundred? Or did you mean first season where, drafted player are on the level on the other team, and it is possible for medium draft to be helpful? And as i know, season three it was easy to satisfy demands, because even the top teams hasn't good trainees.

Would you think that you draft every season a NT player? And your sample isn't very big you know?

The byzantine nature of the Hattrick youth academy is one of the reasons I dropped my hattrick supporter. (while with dropping stamina training and adding the new Reveal feature it is less so)
I hope that Buzzerbeater does not make the same mistake.
