For me, it'd be awesome if you could be just a youth coach/manager, able to take over a club's U18s or U21/23s rather than just being a first-team manager.
Having to recruit youth players from a database only accessible when you're in a youth coaching role would be interesting, helping to improve young players and judge their potential to move up into the first-team.
On occasion you could have meetings with the first-team manager or head of youth development to discuss different players' progress, making it more realistic and interactive within your club.
You might have less control over the team, also, as the DoF or first-team manager might hire new coaches for the youth teams, so you have to work with the resources around you.
