I can't decide who to pick between these two.

- An 18yo with more skill points but 4 potential
- A 19yo with less skill points with 5 potential

* Both have A+ rating with properly trained skills for their position (courtesy of new scouting options). The 19yo is only slightly (1-2 levels) better than the 18yo in terms of primary skills.

Obviously, I have an extra year to quickly train the 18yo but he only has 4 potential. Yet, I have less time to train the 19yo but he has a higher ceiling.

Any opinions?

depends on, what you want. If you plan to bring a player to the U21, than the player with 4-ball-potential. If not the older player

How many skills do you know, and what's the total difference? If there's more than 5 points difference in all skills (or the same ration for fewer skills if you don't know all, for example 3 points over 6 skills), I'd go for the 19yo. The 18yo would then only have a couple more points when he's 19, so I'd rather have more potential than a couple more skillpoints (unless you're gunning for U21). It's also valuable to not need to train when the trainee has low skill points so you have a better player for your games.
