Playing FM24 for the first time this year, it's disappointing to see that AI squad management and youth development haven't been fixed. I'm seven years into the future and there is just one player aged 25 or under in the starting XI of all the top six sides. They also spend £50M+ on average squad players aged 29/30, which makes no sense either from a sporting or commercial perspective.
I was wondering, would it be possible to fix this issue using FMRTE? Perhaps by mass editing (a) the physical attributes of all players over the age of 30, and (b) boosting the reputation of all players under 21. It wouldn't be flawless but given SI haven't fixed this issue for three versions of the game and counting I don't know what else to suggest.
