I've bought some couple of players from recommended list before. They were all good players.
I don't think they are fast trainers.
Not all are fast trainers, some can be though. Just look at the market value for your level.
I should say that it’s so hard to find a decent player from auctions lately, and GKs are one of the hardest (and the rarest) positions to show up. And when they do, it’s a bidding war. I’ve been getting my GKs from the Youth Academy for quite a while now, I reduces the stress
I agree. I just buy a GK with +95% with a skill each season, spending like 15-20 tokens each time. And then replace it the next season, I never trained one.
This one specifically is way above the price (market and salary) of my most expensive players at the current market (auction).
