I am afraid not ... I am at my current club, AC Milan for over a decade. I am a club icon now and even I can't ask for a certain type of affiliate.

It does eventually work as i've just been able to do this and chose my own affiliate.  Its the first time i've tried to ask for it so not sure if I could have done it nearer the start of the game or not.

I mean, I could see increased commercial revenue being a club vision, but again I find it hard to see a Premier Leauge club putting that responsibility in the hands of the manager. Maybe a club like Random FC in the Southern Lower Highland Minor Backyard Leauge do it, but a high reputation club with tonnes of employees? 

And as far as I am concerned, "increase commercial revenue" is not far off having "buy a nice car with your salary money" as a target. If that is going to include micro managing ticket prices and shirt sales that is.

I get your point but you could say the same about many aspects of the game.  A real life manager does not control hiring of staff but you do on FM, they don't control staff or player contract renewals but they do on FM.  They don't arrange pre season tours or friendlies but they do on FM, I could go on and on.  

[Youth PA never above 2/5 Stars]

In all I had 7 seasons with Man Utd, top rated Youth Facilities, top stats for Head of Youth, top training facilities etc etc.  The best I managed in 7 years was a 2.5 PA.  I've since started a new game as FC United of Manchester and have terrible facilities and poor coaches yet my first youth intake report suggests that I have a golden generation of players coming through.  Go figure.  

I guess what you get appears to be completely random

[Youth PA never above 2/5 Stars]

Managing Man Utd, 4 seasons in and the best young player i've had through the youth academy is 2.5 star Potential Ability and I can't work out why I can't improve on this.

 

I have the below:

State of art Youth Facilities

Youth Level 1

Exceptional academy coaching

Exceptional youth recruitment

 

Head of youth development has these atributes:

Working with Youngsters:19

Judging player ability:20

Judging player potential:19

Determination:20

 

4 seasons in I would have expected to gain at least a couple of 4-5 star PA youth players by now but they all seem to be utter rubbish. My Head of youth says the same thing every season "nobody stands out but these are ones to keep an eye on".

Any help with this would be appreciated.
