well...i think one of the reason is the new system train the player faster....like my scout player...(most know that scout players are slow trainer) i got him 5 season ago at age 22.... i power train him to 7 star.... and now...age 27.... he is still half way to his 8 star....in the past... the scout player can't maintain 7 star for 3 season (even fast trainer.... over age 23.... they slow down)... so...since people can keep the player longer... the action on market will be less... ( like i keep my whole team...i only brought 2 players in these 3 season...just for a sub backup)
