    5 star players are starting to pop up on the transfer market (it seems mostly former scouts, since its a new server) but with them come the bidding wars... I think getting that good fast training 4* DC/DR will stay my only transfer list buy at the start of this season.

    I bought the 22yo DC/DMC with CK since it was the only decent scout on my list (not ideal, I needed a DC/DR with aerial defender but DC/DMC is always useful, CK is also a must-have so I can get rid of my old CK specialist in future seasons without worry), the others were either too old, limited positions or useless SA. I really hope I get something better next scout list update, still got the money and the tokens for one more.

    I started selling off my free agents from last season, most of them are already gone.

    Im thinking about selling off my injured DC, he would be a good replacement in case of injuries but nows a good time to sell...


    My CL group is all lower quality than me, no token buyer this time. Cup seems tough but beatable.

    I had 112 tokens and 7.8 million at the start of the season, but already bought the scout and the DC/DR so down to 60 tokens and 3.8 million (got some cash from transfers).

    My goals for this season are CL qualification in the league and to get as far as possible in CL for the cash. Judging from my CL group opponents, this doesnt seem overambitious.

    I really need to get a left winger, ideally AML/ML or AMC/AML, but getting one on the transfer list will be too expensive right now, Ill have to hope for a good scout on the next scout list update or just be patient and play narrow diamond until the market cools down. I also need a decent 3rd MC, they tend to get cards or get injured and cant be replaced with multi-position players. Ill also buy a couple of free agents for friendly games, but not at the start of the season.

    So how do you suppose i can do that when trying to outbid someone else? Thats the whole point of my post ... I didn't lose my 30 tokens on 30 players, i lost them on 4 ... you know why? Because i was ok bidding 8-9 times on the last 3 seconds and my bid on the 10th round was not accepted although i did nothing different than the previous 9 rounds. Does that make sense to you?

    But that's the whole problem. don't outbid on last 3 seconds, as long as you're in the knockout round the auction will keep jumping to the next round so it doesn't matter if you will bid on the first 5 seconds or last, learning the system will save you lots of tokens..

    I'm swaying towards Lukas Sevela because of his special ability. Petersen takes corners so Crawford's special ability would be useless.. but he is 22 years old... Hmmm, any ideas?
    Crawford... Is he related to Pepp?

    I've been asleep for a couple of hours.

    Just with the rubbish market and nothing much to go at, there is an 19 y.o. ML auction ending 10 minutes. Gonna try and win the bid.

    Still no news on negotiations either and our 1st leg of the RR Cup begins in just over an hour.

    My match kicks off soon and I have to say... I think I'm done for. My opponent has a team full of 6* and 7* players, I have no chance with just 6* and 5* players... Time to plan for an early exit I think

    Gonna be hard to win a player for a reasonable amount of T. Just lost 14T trying to get a 19 y.o. ML in a 3 way bidding war. Pulled out the auction, its still going on at KO 25.

    It is similar on my server, only 5* are now 24+. So no more buying for today, but it is time for power-training with the new additions and sell some of my 3*/4* players.

    In the cup I face as always a higher level manager. His squad looks like a last years scout year and he put some players on transfer. So there is a realistic fear to face some worldclass players.
