Suffering from success
Can't stop promoting 90+ youths... but these low rated players are hindering my return to 6501..

I was 6450 with like 5 games to go last season and now im somehow back down here...

wat do

Git gud?

If you've got loads of high quality youths and you want a quick boost to APR then why not sell them and buy pre-trained 80s players? Might take you a while to go through that cycle though, only selling two at a time.

Have you lost your 6501 staff already? If not then you should be able to easily get an 80+ APR if you're willing to wait for it

In the short term, I suggest losing your last-16 Brazilian Cup match.

If you really want 6501 that badly, then just train those youths up a bit (should be pretty quick when they're FA 90s even with lower rated coaches), and when you're close to 6501 again, go through that season unbeaten. Get your staff in and deal with a season in Serie A. Go straight back down again if you don't feel like dealing with the pressure/challenge, at least you'll have your staff.

Or you could sell them off for a quicker fix, as chyper suggests.

You might find your rating starts to shoot up pretty rapidly towards the end of a season if you start winning your last 10 league matches instead of losing them all to avoid promotion.

How can a team just simply ?go straight back down? a division? I?ve seen this be a trend with some teams but I do not understand how can you can actually instruct your team to lose matches.

You can't instruct your team to try to lose, but you can put a 10-rated striker in goal and watch them concede 4 goals every match...
