Nations such as Egypt, Jordan, Russia, USA, Iran, India get a youth rating that is way to high according to other football-countries, so that's why I changed every nation's youth rating according to their reputation in FM18 to make it more accurate!
As a result, I divided every reputation value through 60 and that became the new youth rating, for a more realistic long career in FM 2018.

It was mostly to get a more realistic long save and no more supertalents from Jordan, Egypt, USA and Russia mostly!! Now it's more balanced across South-America and Europe!
Well so what about other countries? In my opinion countries like Poland, Croatia, Ivory Coast, Cameroon should have bigger ratings. Same with Uruguay and England.
On the other hand Greece, Scotland, Ukraine, Russia should have smaller ratings. At least - 0,5 star for each one of them.
