    Money leaking

    Anyone else having problems staying afloat? Im lvl25 and wages are killing me. Also finding it a lot harder to sell my free youth players which used to sell easy to someone a few levels below. And since the way cup games are decided has changed I usually end up playing someone far better, going out in the first round and so lose revenue from those games also. Just me or are others finding it tough going?

    Yes, I've been at the top of my server for three seasons now. It is impossible to sell any player, almost impossible to buy a player other than a 29yo Scout. I don't seel my youth players now, I keep them and power train them to get them to 6*, takes heaps of Rest packs but it is the only way to get decent young players now. I had to put real money into the game last season just to stay competitive, and I missed the top 7 for the first time ever.

    The prizemoney in the higher levels does not keep up with the cost of running your team.
    No regrets

    Yea, finding the same. Have basically no reserve players as cant afford them. Just starting 11 and subs yet still losing cash unless I manage to sell a youth player. Its kinda gone backwards. I used to have over a billion in cash but not enough tokens to buy, now I have hundreds of tokens but not enough cash.

    Sounds tough up there, I have just finished my final stadium but have hardly enough money to finish the seating upgrades and I have noticed the wage increase and players transfers going for 104m+ so might have to not buy next season to pay for seating!

    I max my bonus for match wins.....I still don't know if I need to....and the only reason I have positive cash flow is because I've been lucky to stay in cup and CL for the last 3 seasons to at least the semi's, if I'd gone out of the cup early, I'd be screwed

    You need to play lots of friendlies, I'm getting 5M for every friendly on $15 a ticket + merchandise. Your also finding it harder to sell youths because nobody wants a "slow trainer" if you train your free youths to a quality that ends in 4/9 or one point away from gaining the next star it will help promote a sale.
