While the 18s are full of promise the 19s are a disaster. Most have had no training and are already way behind where they should be. On my team last season I had two 19 year olds better than any of these guys. Just one team better than a whole nation, how can this be? We are looking at a disaster in three seasons unless the 18s end up filling the team.

This is a pitiful bunch. Basically there were lots of others I could have added but unless they are getting trained they wont be worth anything. That is why the last two are on the list at least they will be trained and they have good potential so there is some hope for thses players.

If anyone has a 19 year old who they will be training proprely who has reasonable sills and potential I would love to add them to our list.

The 20 year olds are so bad I'm not even giving them their own thread.

If the 19 year olds are a disaster I don't know what to say about the 20s except, ouch! Once again on my team I have a better 20 year old than anyone in the entire nation of India. Wow we really need a shakeup!

There must be some better 20 year olds out there somewhere but I guess this is a great opportunity for the owners of 18 and 19 year olds. There will be a lot of young guys playing a big role next season. Go for it!

I have some other 19yr olds for you too...

sigh....next season will be a disaster :S

Well maybe not. If some of our 18 year olds develop as well as we hope that they will they will be almost as good by mid-next season as some of our players this year. It is time for an Indian revolution!

Ok Rob, I have added those two both to the offsite forum and here.

sigh....next seasonS will be a disaster :S

lot lot lot lot of single spot training, no chance.

I disagree that 18ers can fill the gap. If other countries will train decently, you'll never fill a full season gap.

But start working...

If all the 18 and 19 year old prospects are really trained properly, then in 2-3 seasons' time, our team will be (or should be) stronger than the team we have at the moment.

I think if next season we have to choose between 10k 19 year olds and 10k 21 year olds we would be better off going with the 10k 19 year olds as they will continue to train faster and get even better as the season goes on, they will gain experience and their owners will be encouraged to keep on training them.

I agree. If the younger players are just as good then we should take the chance to build their experience. Especially with the extra experience they gain playing international games.

the difference in speed is minimal. In my opinion, criteria is first how the manager trained them and kept them in good shape, telling the other "hey guy you have the big opportunity to train your player better!"

Experience is not added by NT matches (or my Scalambrieri should have been skyrocketed)
