50 tokens is a high price to pay but in my case (lvl 4) I can only buy players up to 39quality from transfers, but if I get a scout then the quality can go up to 45 including a Special Ability. This can be a huge boost for your team if you have the money to spend of course. I am playing a cup match vs a manager that is lvl 8 and my team quality is 42,1 and his is 42,7. This is because I have bought scout players, also I tanked last season managing to level up my young players without them losing a star on the end of the season, thus I can play this guy head on giving me a chance on wining the cup! It's all a matter of perspective.
