I already got this answer so I'm coming with my questions.
HOW do you buy a fast trainer ? HOW do you know it is a fast trainer ?
2 seasons ago, I bought a player who was more than the double of the price for a player of the same quality.
I said to myself: you have now a FT. Result, he trained like **** and I got rid of him.
And how do you know you'll get him ? Is everyone going to bow to me and say: please help yourself ?
With scouts, you know the price, you are alone, you pay and you get him. I am calling that effectiveness. But you may disagree, I have no problem with that. It is just a different way of playing the game and that's good to have options.
My scouts last for 2 seasons, sometimes 3 for the top ones. And instead of training them I am spending most of my time getting tokens. Surely a boresome job but vital to me.
