I've resisted the temptation to bring new players in so far. My entire team at the moment are all low 5 star, bar my reserve goalkeeper and one MR, who are both very high 4 star so I do feel I should be OK to at least get promoted this season.
I've just entered level 25 and a quick look through my negotiation list shows teams at level 29 on my transfer roster, so I know I have at least another 4 levels until I hit the top of my server (I have a feeling I have a few more levels after that too). With that in mind, I don't want to be using any of my tokens pointlessly just yet, as I want to really wait until I hit the top level before I start to really go for it.
I've noticed that farming tokens has got a little harder recently. I've currently got 10,937 Tokens. Due to work commitments and other social commitments my time to invest in this game isn't going to be great this month so I am setting myself the target of reaching 11,000 Tokens by the start of the next season. I'm on 756 red, 899 blue and 966 green packs. I'm not that bothered about blue, but my other aim is to try and get 1000 of both red and green packs too - although I do seem to be getting trolled heavily with injuries so it may be hard to hit the reds.
At the moment I'm going to hold on until the 26th to see what new updates come with the game. My current team should hopefully see me into the top 7 so I may see this season out without bringing anyone new in, have two weeks with the new update to see how things operate and then re-evaluate at the start of the next season. I have a feeling I have a while to wait yet until I hit the highest level - and I am reluctant to use any tokens at the moment as I don't know if it will turn out to be counter productive or not when the new update hits us.
