I found it quite hard to buy players without having to bid 10+ knock out for players, I basically bid once or twice and see how much competition on a player there is and then decide if I want a bidding war or not, I did pick up 3 younger players for 1 or 2 tokens each after new season update, Nordeus flooded the market with lots of 18-20 5* generated players to get the market up and running.
