On the value issue....

Value does not equal quality. Value equals potential and fast training.

Your team is much younger which increases your team's value. You also probably have some decent trainers. Your team therefore has a lot of potential for future success, so it is more valuable. His team is older, slower trainers and therefore has less value.

Also, your quality is higher, so that increases the value. But, two teams of the same quality can have very different values based on the reasons I stated above.

Check out the photo of my team (on left) vs my opponent today. His team is of better quality, but mine is younger and has more value.
