You should get tokens as well as money for your league positioning/cup wins
I.E. if you finish 1st = 10 tokens, 2nd = 7, 3rd = 5, 4th = 4, 5th = 3, 6th = 2, 7th = 1
even at lower levels as transfers cost too many tokens sometimes, especially if you don't pay to buy tokens as some of us can't, while this is possible through TV Rights deals at level 3 etc. It should happen for those at levels 1+2
