Update for yesterday and today:
Yesterday I had a win in CL and a close 3-2 win in the league against a weak team. My 6th CL game wont matter now since Im 6 points ahead of place 2, so I can bring a weak/young team. The bad stuff: my scout DMC got injured for the 3rd time! I only had 5 injuries so far and 3 were by him... Either its bad luck, or hes a glassbone and I should save him for the important games.

Today was an easy win in league even without me watching. Still 6 points ahead.

2 days ago I bought my first transfer list player since day 1 of the season, a 20yo 5.8* (39 quality) MC who isnt a fast trainer, but will hit 6 stars this season anyway... and he was only 4 tokens. It was one of the few days when we get a list full of 5* players, usually we only see 3* and a few low 4* players on our server. The new guy is scoring well so far and will help a lot in this and the next season.
