Got Mr Scout players too. I tend to buy a defender as I actually find them to be more consistent in spite of concerns about 'balance'. But this season there were no DCs worth having so I took a Striker, he gave me 4 days of incompetence and disinterest then a couple of games where the effort of stepping off the bench seemed to drain his lifeforce....then he started performing and scoring.
I've actually managed to hold onto a defender that is in his 4th season now - he's mid 5* and after a slump at the end of last season is ever-reliable again. He's my second most played player after my GK and still holds the team record for assists since in his first 2 seasons he took all the corners.
I have averaged a Scouted player a season.
One of the problems with Scouts is they are not as disposable as others.
But the bigger problem with Scouted players remains, to get them to last as Scout for 3 seasons means being very picky and the rest on the list are only useful for an emergency quick fix imo. A Scouted player should as far as I'm concerned be able, by design, to last as a Scout for the length of his contract through play and standard training so anything over 23 to me is not enough, which is very limiting.
Hey guys , sorry about double post but it was 00.30, was sleepy , start closing files and pc and hit (again) the post button.
" I'm lvl22 manager and now from experience when and how to buy nordgens without bid war . "
Ok Vahid, I know what you talking. Previous season I bought a package of 250T to start building my team. Lost half in bidding wars and other stupid auctions. But I’m quick learner.
As about my scout, his numbers in League and CH.L. aren’t realistic because the other team had lower level than me but in CUP I had tough opponents.
Cup is alway though because your opponents should have equal quallity team as yours, but sometimes you could play against higher lvl and much stronger clubs. That's because you use scouts (a lot) so they now compare your club with lvl4+ clubs. Scouts doesn't guarantee cup high finish. They're useful, but they are reason why you have though cup opponents.
Analyzing the second game, my super star take the game on his back while the opponent MC, a 5* 18 y.o. get his 2nd yellow card and destroyed the game. Ok maybe (I read something about ) the youngers attract cards or the manager put Tackles in Hard to overcome or to take out one of my players. But my scout with SA “F-K specialist” hit twice !
Well, one step from the finals …
