Third argument : when Nordeus stop showing around seven 3 / 4 * players each round and replace them with 5 stars players ... the entire list ( 15 players ) each round would be 5 stars players so the supply of good players will increase and the demand will decrease slowly which will make the bidding less crazy ... Each manager will be able to have a full squad of 5 * players ( 80-99 %) within 7-15 days for fewer amount of tokens ...
First Argument: Agreed. You can use any player for training bonus

Second Argument: True, BUT 5* train slower than 3* and 4*. 5* are more expensive (tokens-wise and money-wise) than 3/4*. Also, selling 5* players in negs...means you are selling to direct competitors and strengthening their squads.....might not be a wise thing to do

Third Argument: No matter how many 5* players you have on auction, they will still go for high amount of tokens if they are young and worth having in your team.

Every season, in weeks 1 and 4, I have been stocking my teams with 3* and 4* players...multiple positions, SA a bonus.
Use them for training bonus----> I never touch my first 11 for bonus training now, keeping them fit for matches.
Sell them to lower level folks at decent price and make some tokens to train my team (just like many others on the forum)
All in all, Im sure many of us on the forum, buy more 3 and 4* players than 5* players in a season.
