I feel like the youth system needs a buff. Currently managing Lazio, with 4 champions league titles, 83 reputation, maximum leveled youth system. I am barely getting players that are suitable for my team. I believed there needs to be a change of youth system

whats your academy managers rating and your youth facilities rating?
Academy Manager is rated 80 overall, while my facilities are fully maxed out. Best youth player I've seen is 71, and I've never used him in a game.
71 overall? or potential
remember he is 17 and will grow, most youth players won't peak until at least 21
i sign all the best youth players (17/18/19 ages )on frees or the few from youth academy that are decent and develop them mainly to sell on for huge profit. its amazing what offers you get...you can lose them for nothing if you're not careful. i always renew contracts early in the new season before they get unhsppy. dont transfer list them cos the offers you get will be poor. once you get to top of the prem you wont survive on youth or free transfers alone(ratings dont go high enough bar a few exceptional young players) which is why i use their sales to finance higher value transfers. i once sold a young player for 30mil in the championship. i refused the first and second offers but couldnt turn down 30mil. board would have stepped in anyway.
great to hear!
with maximum leveled youth system
Which is one is better for the growth of youth players?
put in bench/loan out?
they will still grow pretty well, but may be influenced by better coaches at other clubs.
