Love the fact that developers are bringing some changes to the game so it would stay fun to play.
But this announcement has been made far to late. People were counting on their price money to invest in their youth academy, now these people will have to wait another season before they can have better quality youth.
Even worse for people who are currently upgrading their youth academy but of which it won't be finished before start of next season. They will have higher maintenance costs, without having the benefit of it.
Example: Lvl Good -> 8000 maintenance cost - Lvl Very good -> 15000 maintenance cost
Now let's assume 1 season has around 20 weeks. Thats an extra season cost of 140000 just because that manager has been informed to late.
