If I keep him in my first team then there is no need to give AML to Nascimento and that is that for the season in terms of buying players. But I will have to replace Mata through the scouts and I will have to find an AML/ML or AML/AMC, 22 y/o... Not guaranteed but would last my team for a few seasons at least.
Nascimento is a mid 6* striker and if we give him the AML role, we can instantly get another striker from the Scouts... His name is Jonathan Crawford lol and is 7 SP away from 7*. This means I won't have to worry about AML but this requires more training and will require more tokens and green packs to teach him the new role.
What should I do guys?
19 year old 5* 40 rated striker for 3 tokens this morning. Tbh the markets **** as per and theres not much better on it than ive got already!
Yes, thats true. The "worst" part is that some managers dont cancel/reject your bid if they see it as "inappropriate", just letting the clock tick down to 00.00.00....Quote:

Damn, only crap scouts :/
A tough decision, yes! But I think you know best what to do, and not. Dont know if its quite "smart" move to learn a +22yr old a role or a SA for that matter since they tend to "take time" to gain the 50SKP that is required. But if money isnt a concern, then go with it. Otherwise buy a youngster (could be a 4* that is just a couple of SKP from 5*) and go with him. You also might have some luck since people arent as "animals" as on my server when it comes to buying and selling :pQuote:

Its your move:rolleyes:
I guess I'll just go for the role then.. I'll mix it up a bit. Plus having an AML with 1 vs 1 will make people shout "hack" which is what I like to see LOLQuote:

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?
how important are GK SAs? There is a good 22yo 44Q scout on my scout list, but with penalty SA. Would you buy him or is one on one SA a must have?
its the only 44Q scout btw ...
What Level are you playing at now? I've started level 5 today
What are your ambitions? Get my 5th championship in a raw :O mabye this time to get past the quarter finals of the cup
How many Tokens you got? Started with 230, I have 207 after today purchases (lost in 2 auctions)
How much Money you got? Had about 17M, I got about 800k left :p
Who you buying/selling? Bought 3 players I needed to replace players that dropped to 3 stars, all 3 are 5* with just few points from 6*, also all of them are aged 19-20 :)
You just gotta love the 1st day of the season where all the market is flood with 5* aged 19-21
Not so important.. Look at their defensive stats, especially handling. Penalty stopper is a waste of a special ability.. Pens are all random, non penalty stoppers still save them. Get 1 vs 1 stopper.Quote:

Lukas Sevela for sure! ;) My 1th ST (one-on-one) scores and assist as hell, but my other ST (SA:Corner kick) is a good "assist" and scores in like 1 of 4 games (which is "bad").Quote:

That's what I was thinking... I already have a corner taker who got 53 assists last season... Better to have 1 on 1 and we will score more goals!Quote:

Based on the prices all 4 are fast developers. Noel is for sure, hard training brought +170 experience. :)
For all 4 we payed less than 25 tokens, but at another transfer it came to a token war, where we went out after 11 rounds. :s
I am in Season 4 now
What is the best ticket price for league, CL and cup?
Thanks
Get your game working properly please i have lost more than 30 tokens bidding on players and having trouble submitting my bids on the last 3 seconds and as a result i have LOST those players AND my precious well paid tokens because my bid was NOT ACCEPTED on MORE THAN 5 PLAYERS this morning. So GET IT WORKING PROPERLY FFS!!! And yes before you ask it is the first time i have this problem and yes my internet connection is rock solid. IF YOU WANT PEOPLE TO PLAY GET THIS STRAIGHT.
My 2 cents will be simple - don't bid on last seconds, bid alot earlyerQuote:

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?Quote:

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.
It's his older brotherQuote:

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.Quote:

Any suggestion on Level 4 ticket price?
$6 I think I had them at.Quote:

28 y.o. 5*107 ML Tomas Jurc joins us for the season, He will serve as a back-up player for the season. He cost $73.6M and just 1T
http://i40.tinypic.com/5pikg1.png
When you think about the current situation that we face this season with transfers and already sold 2 players yesterday and lacking a ML for todays and tomorrows cup games with L.McNamara being injured. (No I'm not using reds for the RR Cup, rather go out.) This is not too bad a of signing for a back-up for this season until things improve. Ramirez and Norris is out injured as well. But we can still name a strong XI without worrying too much without those 2 players.
Could he be the next Patricio Lopez?
I may wait to day 3 and see how our league draw looks like. I'd say 95% chance we will be paired in the same league as erster FC Puma who have an average of 105.2, they are now same level as us.Quote:

As same as level 4, finish in top 4 spot.
How many Tokens you got?
22.
How much Money you got?
11M.
Who you buying/selling?
As always sell those 2* and buy 4* or 3* near to 4*.
--------------------------------------------------------------
I have seen many 5* and 4* stars already in TM.. let's see what we can grab with those tokens.
- yet another thrilling cup draw for me, 90% of my opponents are 1 level or 2 above me yet again, will be fun! (:
- pretty decent group stage in CL, I should be able to conquer the first place easily. only 2 excessive token buyers in my CL draw this season so I should be able to get at least to the SF if not the F if I manage to avoid these 2.
- bought a new scout 22 y.o DR (Q 63) to replace my 27 y.o (Q 52). I am now looking for a new GK and MC for my starting eleven and a sub ST and MR, will get those and my squad is good for this season.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!
Is he still active? I don't think you'll have any problems in the league tbhQuote:

Yes he is still active, he is buying and selling players this morning. I think he gave last season up because he was doing rubbish in the league again, he doesn't buy any tokens.Quote:
