Buying new players and being competitive

[Mirrowka]

I use the auctions for most of my players as I have more greens than tokens. I buy young players if they are first team replacements but usually Low quality ones. I don’t know how to identify fast Trainers if I do not buy Low quality. Only Low quality players have a difference in price at my level so I have no choice. I do occasionally spend on scouts as well but not often as I have stop buying the monthly card for awhile now and do not intend to anytime soon. For my bench, I get the highest possible quality for 1 token and I do not care about age. Usually get around 70 to 79 quality. Anything above 80 always requires more tokens except for ML and MR positions. That’s how I build my team.

I spend about 50 to 60 tokens per season when I average out over my last 17 Seasons. Did not keep track of greens but I use a lot.

No, 4* is too high .... I buy 3* 18 yo, train them up to 7 stars (FK taker up to 8 stars), you need around 6500 greens to do so to train + SA + position if needed extra.. You should be able to save 6500+ through the year, these players last 14 seasons with me. Thats the cycle I do, and I am fine with it.

Yup I do the same. I too buy 3* 18 to 19 year olds for first team replacements and train them up. Only bench I buy 4* older players. I try to get the highest possible quality for 1 to 2 tokens so I have to buy old. I do not keep my players as Long as you. I stop maintaining at age 22 and once their quality is not good enough, I let them go. Usually at age 23 or 24. Greens seem more precious than tokens to me. So when a good recommended offer comes along, I take it. They are usually better than scouts as they are younger. And not forgetting the token youth player. I get him too

Reading again his message I undestand that is a multiple seasons saving. At first read "You should be able to save 6500+ through the year," i understood that he was able to save that amount in a season...
