69 tokens for scout ?

I actually like the new scout list.

It makes people really consider if a player is worth while getting - and it might just stop some from packing out entire teams of scouts without much care, as now it might be a case of actually looking for a player in a position that is needed and weighing up if it is worth while.

On a personal point of view, I often find that as Scouts train slower, a high level 5 star player could be better value than a scout. I often find going on the next season the Scout player is on a par with the high level 5 star player due to the training speed and within 2/3 seasons the scout player has no overall quality on a normal player. Thus as you can now buy older scouts for as little as 39 tokens it could be argued that budget scout management is also available.

I think its up to players to decide if its worth investing in scouts. I think there is some value in the older end ones now, rather than the younger aged ones. Personally I prefer to use high 5 star players rather than scouts, so I cant' say the changes to me look all that bad. In honesty, I do think its slightly better.

Add in the fact that with the new updates to training on phones, it is now possible to power train players a lot quicker (as in it now takes around 7 seconds, compared to an hour for a match training) - it brings up the decision if hording green packs and power training a player up to scout level is a better option than buying a scout outright.
