I was under the impression that players from the scout list were always good, and also that the value of a player tends to signify his quality.

Yet I bought a 22 year old from the scout list for 4 and a half million(he was the dearest player on list) which is a relatively high amount for the level I am. Dearest player in my team is 5 million.

This player has now just gotten a 3 in his last game. He's never had even a 7 in his 9 games. So far he's had 2 6's, 4 5's, 2 4's and a 3.

Why is he worth 4 and a half million if he's an utter useless muppet?

Isn't the whole point of spending 50 tokens that you're getting a guaranteed good player?
