The Boot Room (new managers zone)

[Zangy]

is my 2nd season and my first competitive match with 3 match in a day.. i got 1st place on 1st season.. but this season i cant buy any player and i do not have many token!! so frustrated.. need help.. lack of player to switch around with so many matches rdy..

You've got nearly a full squad except for those 2 injuries.
If those are minor injuries and they're important 1st teamers, I'd use 1st Aid packs so that they recover condition in the meanwhile

LOl not the best start but no troll results played 2 hard teams so far only lost 1-0 this morning but 2 injuries to my 2 best midfielders , 1 day and 4 days lol

As above

I've also switched from sending Skill pts to Rests as gifts for this busy season
You'll pick up some tokens from the daily log-in TV deal, but try to save them for your Youth Players.
I'm waiting out my thread bare team for my 2 new recruits in 4 days, then going to upgrade the Academy twice maybe 3rd time if it'll allow me (should have all category by L2 by then)

I'm hoping to stay in the Cups & CL as long as poss for the win bonuses (worth investing in win bonuses for the team because of this, unless someone can categorically show win bonuses make no difference)

I also spent the end of last season picking up cheap players for token to strengthen my squad and replace retirees

Get back up and start fighting back.
Problem is not you losing...problem is you not scoring with the lads...( and that's not rude)

LOL

At lower levels I think win bonus is a waste. I prefer to have the money because at level 9, It just cost me $11.3M for the last part of my level 9 stadium. so if memory serves me correctly, it cost me over $40M for the stadium to go to level 9, which allows me to be able to finish 2 of the remaining 5 buildings, the training facility and the pitch. I still need level 10/11 stadium to finish the medical, utilities and garage and winning the league is NOT going to get me that.

What I am trying to say is that it is not proven that win bonus helps win. it, in theory, gives your players better morale or incentive to play better. Until Nordeus confirms what it actually does, then its a crapshoot. At lower levels you need money. Frankly at every level you need money if you want to win. I am looking for a DC/DR right now in level 9 and am going to spend $15M minimum for 18/19/20 yo because anything else is a waste of money and tokens.

as you get in higher levels, you need to be more picky when it comes to buying players. IF you buy tokens, then this doesnt really apply to you since you can always buy more tokens and money. But you will find that tanking a season and building up your bank account and boosters is essential to succeeding. Dont be so hasty to advance levels, because you will soon find that you cant afford the quality players you need to win at the new level. I am tanking 3 of my 5 accounts this season so they can build up their 2/3/4* players to 4/5* players for next season and to give me money for new 18/19 yo players.

So at the lower levels where it is easier to win, save your money and set your win bonus to one position over zero. It is usually 5 positions or amounts, and if it does anything positive at least you have a minimum bonus while still giving you a profit from the game.

Thanks for all the input guys
Yeah, this is what I've done, set my CL & Cup games at 1st option for win Bonus ($7.5k and only because theres a 100k prize for a win)
I dropped my Win Bonus to zero in my 1st season as I still lost a few games and won most of my games with 0 bonus.
Hell, most of the games I've missed I've won convincingly lol

levels 1-3 are supposed to be easy to get you hooked.

I lost my cup game today 0-1 because I read the time wrong and came late to the party. I ended up lucky as 2 players got injured and were not SUBBED! WTF! so he scored against me when i was a man down and then another man down....i would hope for a troll result but based on the final score I think the manager (who was watching) is pissed he did not win by 8 goals.

That being said, I pumped the win bonus up to full for the next cup game obviously. the prize for the game is $1.8M and the win bonus is $1.6M, so it matters not about the money, only that I win the next game. If it helps, so be it.

I keep no win bonus at all. Right now, I am just in the second round of cup, won the first leg of this round 1-0 and was thinking whether to keep a bonus for next leg which is away just to keep it safe......
