It seems that it is one of the way the business part of this game functions.
    I'd tanked 2 seasons ago, and the previous season was places in an insanely tight league, but then most competition came from the Top 4 (which includes my team). Yeah I know that, but it's extremely surprising to be put into such an easy CL group, and also our level 10 cup opponent (we're L8) has no players down flanks. Does it mean an impossible to win league?

    odds of advancement is in my favor, Logan scored 4 (not important to mention by ass) and not even MVP

    Ps. To answer Tactician. I havn't fund a sustainable way yet. I have bought two 21 token academy players, and several 3 star nordgens last season, resulting in a massive drain in tokens and green packs. So to do this again is very unlikely (or expensive) so you got, although sadly, a very good point about quitting time

    I'm wondering the same thing. Tactician was mentioning this as well. I depend on the 5 star fast trainers and there weren't any available. I'll have to see the next few days. I'm hoping that isn't some kind of trend to force us to use the recommendations or scouts.

    It seems that this was intentionally done as some users have reported this observation.

    Possible explanations are as follows.
    (1) It was done on purpose to increase the amount of tokens spent globally (for instance, increase in panic, more rush, more bidding wars, more need to use the scout's list and/or the negociations' list, and so on, as many users that depended on first day 5-star 'nordgens' failed to get those).
    (2) It was done on purpose to make the task of users who manipulated the Cup draw more difficult.

    The first possibility seems more likely the reason.

    Also, this could have been set to occur on day 1 only for specific levels, as last season, I have observed that there is a sort of trend in the quality of 'nordgens' that appeared for each day of a week; for instance, it seems that on a particular day, say for 3 consecutive levels, 1 level got at max. 5-stars 'nordgens', the other got 3 and 4-star 'nordgens and one got at max. 3-star 'nordgens', and on another day, the situations reversed. So, for those that did not get any 5-star 'nordgens' today, they might get them tomorrow or the day after, while those who got them today, won't get them tomorrow or the day after.

    One thing is sure though, if this going to be like this, then they have made it more difficult for users to keep up with the need to increase the quality of their teams. This could result in the loss of many users, as with time, they will no longer be able to compete with others in the transfer market due to token and/or virtual money limitation. I, myself, I had a hard time today to get at least some of the players that I need for this season. I would like to add that the ways things have gone (not only this year, but last year also), it has become more difficult to built a personalised team of fast-trainers only as compared to when I started playing this game; there are too many limitations, like lack of players having a specific starting position and/or starting attributes, lack of 5-star fast trainers and so on.

    2 of my teams had recommended players offered today no longer are they 6 tar players like all the other seasons but 5 star …….Could be limiting the auctions to force you to buy the recommended player ? I´ve seen nothing good all day on auction & I first checked at 5am gmt

    I checked from early in the day too. Mostly 3-star nordgens present and definitely no 5-star ones. Refreshed the page several times, and tried again later, but still no 5-star 'nordgens'.

    I add a 3rd possible explanation:
    Nordeus only generates players based on a supply-demand law, i.e. In the beginning of each season (days 1 and 2 mostly) players will try to get rid of unwanted players as much as possible to get money to buy new ones. As a lot of players floods the market with players to bid for, there's no need for Nordeus to generate players.

    Day 1 - Palace Casuals Cup report.

    The Palace Casuals Management echoes endou's comment above - it's come down to spending 2T on a low-quality 5* left-sided defender/wing-back, with a useful SA...

    Season 78 - Are you ready?-pc-graeme-flood-auction.jpg

    Where did the five or six other bidders disappear to in the 1st Round - needn't have made the insurance bid...

    The Management was still in the TM buying Flood when the <1 Min notification went up on the match preview screen, so couldn't put the new player in, but earlier signing Andres Iniesta was tried out on both sides of the central midfield during the home 1st Leg Cup match, and made more of an impact in the first half on the left. A first hat-trick of the season, and to a player in the ST position! Step forward Massimiliano Gerini, your goals were the difference as Casuals won 3-0.
