When to start playing all subs/reserves? League just about wrapped up

If you're going to sign players, sign them a few skill points from a 6th star so they'll be 5 stars for next season.

Cheers guys. And here comes the n00b question; how do you know when they are close to 6 stars?

[El Pistolero]

What level are you?

For example, I'm in Level 6, I have a centre mid 49 quality he's a few skill points from 50, which is 6 stars. If you put your cursor over the stars on squad list, it'll tell you the quality.

I'm only level 2, my best player I think is Q36 - World class at this level. But say for example my DC/DR - who is 5*, Q27 - how would I know exactly when he is close to scout? Is there a chart about for each level?

5* players that end in 4 or 9 (depending your level) are close to scout quality.

[El Pistolero]

Okay, if your 5* has 27 quality, he'll be at scout level at 30 quality.

So look for young players at 29 quality if you feel the need to buy players for the next season.

So ... 29 for level 2?

Won't see any of them on the market

Highest I see down 'ere are Q24

By the sounds of it you dont need much for going into season 3! Id seriously save it for level 5, season 1-4 were a canter (barring the cup obviously) but season 5 for me has been a bit harder. Leagues only 5 points clear and ive a token buyer in the champs semis and then another if i get to the final. Been a good season though as i was getting bored of destroying the league and champs league in season 1-4. Season 5 ive had a few close calls and (this will sound terrible) ive seen alot more managers watching matches and a few taking formation/tactical breakdowns when ive horsed them lol.

why do players lose value at beginning of new season? surely if you get promoted and are playing at a higher level they should GAIN value not lose it.... seems daft to me

Because they are a year older.
