Youth Scout

Hi,

Im playing this game for a couple of weeks and I won some races and some money allready. Now I wonder in what I should invest my money. Should I buy some better players to win more races or should I buy a good youth scout. Either way I want better players to win more races and more money (im gready

Now, I dont know what the skills of players found by a good youthscout (20 20 10 (on perception)) are. So I dont know what is best buying players or getting them on the long term from youth scouts. If they give me players with max 3 I think I better get them on the transfermarket. On the long term I should probably train these guys since they train very fast. Any advise?

Thanks in advance.

My advice: don't buy a youthscout. There have been a lot of discussions about this already, but to make a little summary:

There are already many 20-20-20 youthscouts, and most of the teams who own them, don't keep the player they pull but sell it on the transfer market. Some go for only 2.000 €, the very best are sold for 200.000 - 500.000 € but that still is much better then buying a youthscout of 1.800.000 € with no garantee of succes. And don't forget that those super talents are being pulled by a delighted youthscout; which means a salary around 120.000 €/ week.

Also notice that a pulled cyclist can't have more then 16,.. (?) skills in total, so in the rare occasion when he has a 4 or better in a skill, the rest of his skills are much worse.

AND with the 2.000.000 € you save, you can buy at least 10 very good (but old) cyclists. So search a nice balance between young talents and old stars, and you'll win much more then you could ever gain by taking a youthscout.

It's € 129.150,00 per week for a delighted youthscout.
And before you get to delighted you've paid a lot more than 1.8 Mil.
1.8 Mil is starting costs...
