Is your scout player your only 6* player? It can always be a case of Zinedine Zidane playing in Spain's division 2, tho I doubt the engine is inteligent enough to factor this in. BUt it's fun to make up stories like this.

Give him a chance next season, you might be surprised with his goal/assist returns.

I've only had one experience with a player bought from the scout list and he was disappointing until we reached the final 3rd of the season. He performed brilliantly at the start of the second season and slowed down at the tail end. This season he started slow but is now a must start (I've lost matches when he didnt start).

This season my rival & friend bought a scout GK and although he is the 2nd best defense behind mine, his scout GK regularly gets a 5/6 rating. I'll tell you the same thing I told him - he'll come good next season, just be patient. I believe scout players are long term investments and not a quick fix.
