I did check the draft results for my league (III.2) last week: I decided to hold onto my scouting points and select randomly and I was curious whether I missed out or made the right choice.

I wouldn't even bother spending too much time on that league: this time there were 29 19yo (one is a HoF potential with 3.2k salary and another is a MVP potential with a 46 skill count who is on up for transfer ending tonight 1/1) and among the remaining 19 18yo there is only 1 with Allstar (or better) and 3 with Star potential...

Congratulations for the election!

Honestly our inside is too weak, we are hurt badly by game shape having only 3 players to choose from with one on 6 GS. I'm not going to hold my breath lol - still, this is the hardest of all the games so nice to get it first

rankings in U21 mean nothing. season 18 is an all too good reminder about that. English U21 was ranked 64th at the start of the season, yet went on to qualifiy for the european championship.

Each generation has a chance at making it to the top. the bigger factor i would look at is Community size. Russia has a large community, so their U21 is likely to be strong. However, it only takes 1 golden generation to be able to upset even the top teams. that is part of the appeal of the U21's aswell. if u get 15 managers to decide to all take 1 trainee and give him the royal treatment, then u'r likely to have an extremely strong team capable of challenging the top nations for a spot in the european championship ( or have an extended consolation run).

anyhow, Russia should get the top spot. 2nd spot will be a fight between Portugal, Ukraine, England and Israel.

best of luck for tomorrow! if ur able to keep the difference below a 20 point loss, then i'd say u'll have done a great job!

I realise that rankings don't mean everything, but one look at their team should tell you that if they aren't 3rd they are very close mate. I'm looking to make a golden generation, but it's going to be hard to do that with this current crop of 21's however good they are... Our current crop of 18 and 19's however... now thats a great group, and as you say... all I need is those 15 who capture a vision!

Yes I agree, keeping that to below 20 would be my aim
