Banger vid as always mate I remember back in the day when I used to have to search for physically gifted players for every scouting mission to avoid the 40 stamina stinkers
@ yes they produce a lot of Senegalese players, sadio mane pape cisse pape sarr, koulibaly have all come from metz. They have some talented players as they have a huge link with generation foot which is a big academy in Senegal that these players above came from
Aha this is pretty much a perfect video at the perfect time for me. I'm from Trinidad, just got FC25, and I'm big into YA saves. Thanks for the hard work and awesome timing.
@@RoughWalkersit’s probably between 16th and 20th largest countries if you exclude the Amazon 😂 Brazil’s lazy development ey, to put this into perspective, over the next 25/30 years, china will have urbanised more than the total area of brazil (Amazon included) just within china’s borders alone 😬 now that’s big. That’s unfathomably big, imagine in that space of 30 years if Brazil razed the jungle and filled the space with cities 😳 we can’t even comprehend the resources needed to do this that Brazil just couldn’t muster if even wanted to! (Not that it would want to turn the Amazon into concrete jungle instead of a real one but you get the picture)
Got a 13 yr old Rw from Haiti whose potential was 96. Also got a 13 yr old CB from Haiti whose potential was 94. Those were 2 out of over 6 '3 month' scouting periods with a 5*5* scout. I often tend to use Japan and Iceland for youth academy saves. I have gotten solid stuff from there.
Always appreciate the work you do! I repeatedly scout Canada. I leave a scout there the entire career. Theyre awful at CB and ST. Always generate insane fullbacks. (Davies?) Two most common last names are Bird and Trembley. Theres always 1 of em per cycle. Also... i cheat at the start. Save game the day before the scouting report and just re-load until one or two wonder kids generate.
Every year i am really dissapointed. It seems like they do not even care about single player modes and career mode. They add features that make no sense. They will change up the menu making it look "fresh" meanwhile it might be not functional. As for youth academy , they added academy games that really do not have any useful meaning. They added 13-14 yr old just to say we made changes. We STILL to this day do not have a voiceover when speaking to the press conference or any other cutscenes. It is unacceptable to sell a game 70$ and do not have at least ALL the UCL , EL , ECL teams players faces scanned. It is unacceptable not to have any customization to the game. They wont let the community be helpful and create teams , leagues , player faces and roster updates and upload it to a server so we can share each other.AND MAKE IT A LITTLE BIT REALISTIC AND FUN. Like NBA2K at least they got this right. I wont talk about gameplay but if they had this features career mode would be x100 fun to play. At this point they should sell the game for free and get money only from the microtransactions , cause we play the same mode for over 10 years how we can contact the devs as the community and express our view?
This is the coolest video you put out each year! I have doubts on the statistical significance of differences as they appear to fall under normal variance for the sample size. More data would be awesome!
The highest Youth I found in my life was a youth player in ea fc 23 called Oliver cooper in my Wrexham carrer mode he was a English he was an 69 rated youth player he helped me reach the prem and then decided to join Southampton because he was fed up of playing at Wrexham even though I played him every game he was just fed up of the atmosphere and I tired to buy him again at the end of the season but he said I’m not joking back because of the history between us and I finished above Southampton in the prem I finish around 16th that season and Southampton got relegated so I left Wrexham and joined Liverpool and bought cooper and all my players from Wrexham . Cooper is around 84 to 85 rated
Really cool video. Its a great idea and probably took a load of effort so kudos to you. Looks like the difference between a lot of these values were very small and might not be significant statistically, meaning they could be down to chance. Obviously speculation on my end but if you do a future video like this i would suggest checking for significance to work out if it is due to chance or not.
In my Bromley RTG I did a scouting in Mongolia and picked up a CAM that can play ST and has a wonder of a long range shot (won me a few close games with last chance attempts). Definitely in the first team in the prem
Not sure an isthmian championship and a Kent senior cup constitutes as an RTG my friend but hey I had my uni team win the champions league a couple fifas ago so stranger things have happened! 😅
EA has half-assed Brazilian youth players for ages, we used to have surnames that literally didn't exist and even now it's probably still one name and one surname. Easily one of the clearest reasons why EA needs to add an option to edit a player's name and "common name".
Last year I used to always scout in Argentina because they would produce wonderful wingers. In fact the best player I ever scouted was from Argentina, he was a LW with 70 ovr.
The best players I’ve scouted current ratings: 22y.o CB 94, 5 play styles 22y.o CB 91, 2 play styles 19y.o LB (converted in YA from CB) 85, 4 play styles All scouted from England. I wonder if higher potential has anything to do with scouting with the home country (i play with Stevenage). Also when you play the youth matches with your settings on full potential, you can see the players’ “actual potential” when you check their match performance.
Are you sure you don’t have sampling bias on the Brazil scouting thing? You only generated 1000 players for each nation. I suspect they just made the scouting nations all equally random and the patterns you’re detecting are entirely random. The name pool though? That’s inexcusable.
Ive been playing the same save for about 7 seasons, and i manage to have some beasts (overall-wise), 2 90+ cb's, 4 90+ cm's and some realy great fullbacks and gk's, from all around the world. Just having some trouble with strikers
Ok guys let me put this in more simple terms basically England and France and Australia are gods at finding wonderkids meanwhile Brazil are absolute shit at finding wonderkids. GOOD KNOWLEDGE EA!
Great vid! It would be interesting to know also average height, how much they can grow, how many playstyles, roles... Also, do you know if every player can learn ++ role?
How were you able to send 3 scouts to the same country? Is it a mod or a setting or ....? I tried that earlier in my career mode and was unable to do this.
Could it be to do with real players in game as a percentage? E.G bc there’s more french players and lots of good ones your there’s higher percentage of better YA But bc Brazil isn’t liscenced there’s less real Brazil players in game so percentage of all real player less good ones correlates to YA ??
That would actually make a lot of sense in terms of explaining Brazil vs France or England, although Australia is still odd not that many in game really, A-League is small (13 teams?) and not many playing abroad, a handful in the English leagues.
To be fair, you still have most of the best Brazilian players around even without the league. Even with Brazilian teams dominating the Libertadores, EA would never rank many players from our league that well. I think it's easier to say that EA fucked up the code somehow.
Guys, did EA fixed the faces of the academy players? Or the players still with the same face they have at 13 yo? I been playing the same save for several weeks and dont know
I have a theory, but I have no idea if its true. Maybe the lack of good players in youth academy from Brazil, its because there is no brazilian national team on the game, IDK
So I have 2 youth scouts 1 gives me players from that nation the other I can't access it's broken, I'm in season 9 now and unable to scout 2 different countries at the same time
As a Brazilian EA managed to make me enven sadder now, no NT, shit youth academy, no league... we are basically getting removed from the game, slowly but surely. sigh
I know how to give your youth players ROLE + Step 1 make sure they already have attributes such as incisive pass etc. Step 2 Regardless of what others sa you CAN loan them out sstep 3 once they hit rating 80+ PUT THEM ON THE TRASNFER MARKET AND SELL THEM STEP 4 BUY THEM BACK FROM THEIR NEW CLUB AND THEYLL HAVE ROLE+ LIKE IF IT WORKED!!
Can't most of the results just be explained by variance? The difference is so small that it will probably even out even further with a larger sample size
Looks just totally random. The differences are not incredible... Or maybe it would be good to look results for only "interesting" players over 80 or 85, maybe very low potential biased your study. Everytime I made a career I feel the results in year one are not so good. So few Brazilian names whereas their are plenty of Brazilian players in the game, guess Portugal have more when their names are quite similar. EA is not interested developing seriously something else than FUT, career mode is just made because they have to do it, not because they are interested improving
Guys why did my fc25 randomly got deleted. I'm sure I didn't do anything wrong, I even played yesterday. And Today I wanted to play and I need to download it again
It's down there, but I would still rate FIFA 20 lower, it was absolute trash. FC 25 could have been good but they tried to do too much and messed it up.
Maybe EA has neglected Brazil on purpose because they don't have the licence... 👀
I was thinking the same thing
Banger vid as always mate
I remember back in the day when I used to have to search for physically gifted players for every scouting mission to avoid the 40 stamina stinkers
FIFA devs being lazy per usual
Thats because there hasn’t been a fifa game in 2 years
@@n0body550 true
I found that the youth tournaments tell the exact player potential. If you active the setting of 'full potential' and the go to performance in game.
I have a player in my dortmund save who is 13, had 53 ovr and 97 potential
The Best player I ever scouted was a 68 LW from Senegal 3 million was his worth
You should do a career mode with Metz
@RB-hz2bf Metz?
Is there anything cool about Metz
@ yes they produce a lot of Senegalese players, sadio mane pape cisse pape sarr, koulibaly have all come from metz. They have some talented players as they have a huge link with generation foot which is a big academy in Senegal that these players above came from
@@planetXErebus scouted lots of senegalese players like mane, coulibaly,sarr
scouted a 70 rated 15 year old once a few fifas ago
So pretty much EA hates Brazil…
Probably just mad Konami have the exclusive license to the Brazilian league and national team
Brazil ain’t a bad country just inconsistent, you either get really bad players or really good players.
The amount of traits and height ranges would be the most interesting tests for to me
Turkey is the best place to scout. They always give me 90 + potential players
Aha this is pretty much a perfect video at the perfect time for me. I'm from Trinidad, just got FC25, and I'm big into YA saves. Thanks for the hard work and awesome timing.
As a Trini, No Kenwayne Jones slander but great vid regardless mate
people don't realise just how big Brazil is, it's even bigger than Australia
And covered in jungle

@schmechel6888 damn
Just try Türkiye guys , you have to take my word for it but they produce insane youngsters.

What I’ve found is that all the players that are 13 years, they have alittle more potential with a lower ratings obviously
I'll stick with San Marino thanks
Last year I used to always scout in Argentina because they would produce wonderful wingers. In fact the best player I ever scouted was from Argentina, he was a LW with 70 ovr.
best i ever got was a 71 rated lw from brazil on fifa 23
i set up a scouting network in Bosnia and every single name was "Kovacevic"
Scout goalkeepers in France. Yesterday 5 of the 7 keepers scouted had a potential over 90.
The best players I’ve scouted current ratings:
22y.o CB 94, 5 play styles
22y.o CB 91, 2 play styles
19y.o LB (converted in YA from CB) 85, 4 play styles
All scouted from England. I wonder if higher potential has anything to do with scouting with the home country (i play with Stevenage). Also when you play the youth matches with your settings on full potential, you can see the players’ “actual potential” when you check their match performance.
Clearly Racheal "RayGun" Gunn is now working at EA, and having another laugh with her country being the top rated football scouting location.
Ahah Kenwayne Jones catching strays for no reason 😂😂😂
Always in love with your videos
I wish you good luck in life

in my save barcelona (who i don’t manage) has generated a 16 year old who is 80 rated and “has potential to be special”
In fifa 23 I got a 79 overall 16 year old youth academy baller
Good video this reslly helped me keep up the good work. Ive been loving the career Mode videos! ❤❤🎉
How do you know it’s a good video when you didn’t have the time to watch it entirely when you commented?
Great Work 🤩🤩🤩
God you're so nerdy and we are so grateful XD
Keep up the good work brother!
Can you do some research i terms of getting players with playstyles (good playstyles)
That would be so Nice!
Ok guys let me put this in more simple terms basically England and France and Australia are gods at finding wonderkids meanwhile Brazil are absolute shit at finding wonderkids. GOOD KNOWLEDGE EA!
Where should I be scouting for Spain? Gonna do a Athletic Bilbou Rebuild
To me, this, is art.

How about playstyles?

Also, i find that most good players are left footed fot some reason
I wish there was an easy way to get stats like these from all the countries
Best player I ever scouted was a 17 year old English CM starting 74 with a potential of between 95-99 and it lied he peaked at 80 😭
Dele Ali: The Sequel
Dynamic Potential?
ansu fati
Rashford 😂
Love your vids bro.
I scout in yemen and find 14 years old player he was 68 ovr and 94 potential
Which roles bring back taller players? I've had success with Target Forward so far but that's about it
Such an interesting video! How where you able to collect all of this data?
Most consistent 94+ pot players for me has been mongolia by far.
Central Europe seems to be the best region this year
I got 2 wingers from Brazil who are tagged potential to be special?
EA probably voted for Rodri to get the Ballon D'or 😂
Guys, did EA fixed the faces of the academy players? Or the players still with the same face they have at 13 yo? I been playing the same save for several weeks and dont know

Step 1 make sure they already have attributes such as incisive pass etc.
Step 2 Regardless of what others sa you CAN loan them out
sstep 3 once they hit rating 80+ PUT THEM ON THE TRASNFER MARKET AND SELL THEM
STEP 4 BUY THEM BACK FROM THEIR NEW CLUB AND THEYLL HAVE ROLE+
