I know a lot of people have asked me too the link to my data, so heres the 5000 highest rated players! I'd have linked the full 20,000, but any more than that seems to crash chrome?!? Hope it's useful to someone! docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRIXtDFtp-O0kdNjedSUhA_n_-luSc2ukELKLdtA4UP5VNTSZhlfMEvvnNBnLiEbO50g2Pcv7C33sf0/pubhtml
My best youth player I scouted this year was a Trinidad striker called Dexter Daniels, found him at 58 and got him up to 90 and a Balon Dor win by the middle of season 6. That was a great career mode, managed Tramere with ASAP Rocky as the AI Chairman and he told me to scout in Rihanna's homeland where I found Dexter :)
Hey lol, I'm from Trinidad, and it's a great scouting location. I've found a £4.2M RW there. He's currently 81 overall after a season and a half. But Rihanna is from Barbadoes. Caribbean neighbours bout different countries. I believe Barbados is in the game, so give it a go.
Gotta say, based on the data seen on this video, I’m increasingly convinced that the youth academy generation odds by country are all exactly the same. I suspect that if you were able to increase sample size to an absurdly large number (say, 20,000 players per nation), the average potentials would all be almost exactly the same across nations.
Then it would be a really big coincidence that the top 10 is all European. I think they have a general average potential range for every continent, and the countries in each continent have an average potential that is somehow linked to how good the nations/players from each nation is. That would explain why France is the best in Europe and San Marino is last. It would also explain why South American teams like Argentina and Brazil have so bad average potentials despite being top teams with good players.
Best country to scout for me has been Honduras. I don't know if there's anything to this but I've gotten like 20 or so players in different playthroughs that have reached well over 90. Probably one of my favorites was Hugo Villa, he was a cm defensive playmaker and he had so many play styles. Tiki taka +, incisive pass, pinged pass, slide tackle and anticipate. This guy ended up being such a beast later in the career mode and was regularly putting up 20+ assists a season, 10+ goals, and was winning me the ball back in midfield constantly (he had a intercept stat of 98 at his peak).
As a Malawian it hurts to see us at the bottom of most of these rankings. I guess it is to be expected though. I was so surprised and really happy when I found out that they were even in the game in the first place. I have just started making a Malawian Only Career mode in EFL league 2. (Haven't even played 1 match yet) It'll be interesting to see if these results are accurate or not (at least for Malawi) There are only 2 Malawian players in the game and I am going to sign both of them straight away for my team. Thanks for the data, it will really help me to know what to expect.
There will be good prospects out in Malawi but they will be so much harder to find one whose really good however if you save before the scout comes back ( 1 day before) you can then keep saving and quitting until you get one whose like 1.1 million £ or above there the good ones go for like 1.2/1.4 or above and your on the money for a good prospect
I appreciate the data tracking and informing us. I love learning about how this new scouting system work. I feel nothing is different but would be curious if there could ever be a video for each continent and a depth of the top 10 nations and the worst nation to scout on that continent. I know your busy though and I probably still stick to scouting whenever I feel best but knowing the data somehow would be interesting to know 👀
Could you please start putting standard deviations in brackets as well? This helps us to gauge the spread of the data. This can be easily done on excel or python
Hey it seems that there should be a new feature where academy players earn playstyles if they're enough time in the academy. Would love you to talk or see about it. Kind regards!
Scotland used to consistently have good wingers maybe it’s a history thing from ea but who knows. I also found that Scotland can get you some really good centre backs
I actually found 2 wonderkids from argentina and one of them was litterally the next messo, and could the players w 100 potential actually reach that rating?
@@FenerOnTop ben hiç karşılaşmadım ama muhtemelen hatadır çünkü tüm özellikler 99 olsa bile 99 oluyor overall mantıken. ultimate team'de bile 100 overall veya herhangi bir statı 100 olan oyuncular yokken kariyerde hiç olmaz. bu arada favori futbolcum coutinho
can you do this in different parts with each continent so you could maybe list every country or at least have much more time per country. I know its a lot to ask but for people like me who are from poor countries or pretty obscure ones wanting to find a great player, we just wanna know where to look🙏.
Not sure using average is the best way to do this, i could care less about how low ones nation is for floor of talent. Im purely looking for top talent, i dont care what the bottom looks like. Seems like almost every nation is the same lol when your getting an average number difference of around 1 or two, who gives a shit lol First three months of the season brazil is killing it for me, where some of the shit players really shit? Yes they were terrible, but it also generated 4 young players with 90+ potential. Argentina gave me two 90+ gems in the first month of scouting. Seems more like scout wherever you want and you'll be fine, instead of don't scout here (especially when talking about Brazil/Argentina)

How do you get the screenshot thing to work? Have you written a program?
As an amateur Python developer, I would love to see the script for this. Is there a git or notebook for this?
Is there a way to manipulate the data so that I can run some queries for myself? Thanks.

@@satchensewnarine9862Asap and Rhianna are both Barbadian
Dexter Daniels is a sick name
Barbados**
I found a 600k value cam who went up to 92
I always go 1. Home league nation. 2. Brazil/Argentina. 3 Random nation just for kicks.
Same lol for number 3 I'm going for a goalkeeper in France/Germany first, then probly move on to some African strikers/forwards or something
I always go for England, Germany and an African nation. Or I add in Japan sometimes because I love the country.

What a legend
Why not a Portugal sample? they produced a lot of talented players in the last years
This is the video i was waiting for. GREAT VIDEO!!
These videos are amazing. I know it might take a while but it would be cool to see all the nations.
Best tutorial to find youth players. It has helped me so much in my rebuilds that I have made on my channel!🔥

Unless they're generally all the same (which makes sense tbf)
i defo should have included this! if i do this again for FC26, i'll 10000% include better data 😁
Please can you see how the 100 potential player turns out
Hey it seems that there should be a new feature where academy players earn playstyles if they're enough time in the academy. Would love you to talk or see about it. Kind regards!
I've not seen this if this is true then that's dapper
I was in your top 0.5% of viewers last year and if you keep making videos this interesting Ill be going for the top 0.1%
I’ve JUST started a YA save on my channel. This is gonna be INVALUABLE! Thanks for your hard work Sir!!!
The 100 and 99 potentials are crazy! Is there any way to get them or is there not?
Scotland used to consistently have good wingers maybe it’s a history thing from ea but who knows. I also found that Scotland can get you some really good centre backs
I actually found 2 wonderkids from argentina and one of them was litterally the next messo, and could the players w 100 potential actually reach that rating?

Also, I notice the France and Germany screenshot had the same exact scores across every position, is that right?
Can you make a list of the best possible country for each
position?
I was doing a mls save and found a goalkeeper in Nicaragua who ended up being 92 rated after moving to Bayern
I love Youth Academy
can u make a small chart for each position and the best country to next to it
Good idea, i might post them over on twitter or the community tab!
@@Geografifa Where's the community tab? I'd love to see these stats!

Camera settings?
Surprise, but i found the most talent in Mongolia, Kyrgizistan. I think originally none player from theese countries in EA FC 25.
Can you make this with Austria too? Would like to know if we can get good youth players from there
Does Switzerland still have cracked goalkeepers? In fc24 i would get 4 or 5 players at 94 potential after 3 months
For some reason I get a lot of really good players from Morocco

How about Portugal
I've found many high potential Scottish players
My thoughts exactly
What about asian countries? 🤔
im kinda surprsied Portugal isnt on any of the top lists.
India has bangers 90+
first
you actually beat me to comment on my own video, thats crazy
@@Geografifa surely the 100 potential players cannot ACTUALLY achieve that, right? It has to be a glitch.
