    I'm really glad that all of you that replied here achieved what you've written, then obviously I guess I'm the dumb one here, though nothing you said is applicable in my situation. First for 18-19 year old players I've got to pay 20T at least (talking about youth academy players). Second, a good (I won't go as far by saying 90% but at least 70-75%) 18-19 year old player on the TM will come out only a bit less because 99% of them go for 12-13 or more tokens in bidding, often as much as 25-30T. If I used the strategy of buying solid youngsters, let's say 3-4 of them, then yes, age and development wise, I am futureproof, kind of. 4 weeks later they lose a star which they are going to regain at the end of the season in which they lost it, and that's an endless cicle. I really don't want to start a season with a 60% team since Cup will bring you an opponent whose team is significantly or much stronger than yours in about 10 days. That means I'm out of Cup, one competition less. Even if there would be some tokens left, they're enough only for 1-2 youngsters. Now, I'm aware that there are always older players that are very good and come out cheaper because of their age. Tried that as well, but you just can't stop people who see a player with an orange star in the TM, be it a youngster or a 31 year old veteran. And since this is football, 3-4 players won't play for a team of 11.

    What I've forgot to say is that I have a bottom limit of tokens in my bank and that's 60. Yes, 60 tokens. Before you bash at me for this I have a good reason for that: you never know what can happen to your team or when you'll have a recommended player that you ought to buy. And there are my young players which are bought with tokens too. My friend (we have regular talks about TE since we see each other every day) plays on spending every single token that he has and when he saves like 10T spends them again. His team is 100% or maybe even more. He knows the game of football (tactics, formations and strategy) so that can't be an excuse as well. He is level 10 or 11 and he's never won a Cup. He's never won a treble. He usually wins a trophy per season and that's either League or CL. Why did he lose if he knows how to play? A better opponent, team wise. That's why he's getting eliminated out of Cup, that's why I get eliminated out of cup.

    Yes, I know and I'm aware that I cannot be the winner every single time. I don't have a complex with that. I'm not a crybaby when I lose. Loss is there for you to see and get what's wrong and try to work on bad stuff and fix them.

    Just to get it clear, I'm not a hater, a troll or any kind of person who is on forum to annoy and get everyone mad, if it looks like that. I'm just expressing my thoughts and experience, I may be wrong indeed. Maybe I'm on an unlucky server or something. I still stand behind the shortage of tokens and that you really need them anytime, which ultimately leads to buying them if you have money and will to spend it on tokens.
    I just can't get why no one supported me on not buying our players from our youth academies for T. At least a bit.
