yeah like Baxter Ballard, my 17 year old that sold to a liga 3 polish team for 800k. Before him, I was hovering at the bankruptcy line.

He was of no use to me, as I am training midfield and the money burn as a C league is absolutely ridiculous.

He ended up funding all the mids I'll be selling in about 16 weeks for about 5 times his original sale price.

Just a matter of treading water fiscally this season, though - thus the YS reduction. Through one full season it's produced absolute garbage, both pulls and future pulls in a couple seasons, with 4-5 exceptions which I'm still training.

Vilpu da ch33t0r:)

But really, great talent+superb coaches=future star.

Aren't you supposed to put him on the NT AFTER he's a star?

Note to self - become NT coach and then add all my "future stars...."
