And people say it isn't realistic that you have to pay for players from your youth academy, what a load of rubbish. Do you think clubs in real life just build a facility, a kid walks in and a professional player walks out? That it didn't take millions in investment and thousands of man-hours in scouting and coaching on top of building the facility. Think of the 12 tokens as the investment, except you can choose to make it at the end rather than having to gamble up front like all clubs do.
What do u mean by what more do u want? Yesterday I bought a 22 yo 4 star DL with defensive wall S.A for 6.5 million $ and a DR/DC 4 star 23 yo free kick specialist for 5 million $ and had to spend only 3 tokens in total!!! That too on the 3rd day of the season. Sheer luck but both the players much better than the useless academy player. Not to menton, I have been getting only DCs for past seven seasons from the academy and guess what, I am in my seventh season.... :P In 18 T, I can buy a totally new playing eleven with 4-5 star players of age 20-26. My token budget is just 35 a season so I can't afford to spend half of it on a single academy player with no S.A and just 4 star. Yup, u can get about a million or two from the free one. I am receiving my players tomorrow on the 5th day of season so I hope I can get something decent from the 3 starrer. And if they are again DCs, it will be an extension to my record. 8 times straight!!! What a streak.... I can bet even the greats of July Fourth can't beat that. All respect to him anyways.
