When the prices of players in the market goes down ?

[Starker17]

I bought a scout which was 7*, nearly 8* and he played 4 seasons in all competitions (200 games) and in his 5th season he is a high 4* aged 27. But bought another scout GK to replace him, who is high 7*. So it depends what you think is better. I like to have a mix of both scouts and youth players which train fast.

Buy nordgen player: U21 years old, rating near scout (X4 or X9; 24,29,34,39...). They are better solution than scouts because their growth will keep them competitive through more seasons, 50T scouts aren't that useful. Nordgens are best players, even without powertraining they should last few seasons. I had ST who played for my team 4 seasons, played 95 matches for my team, 54 goals (for club), 33 assists (last season, other not counted). Now I have nordgen LB, he plays his 3rd season and still has 5* rating.
If you still want to buy scout, then buy only CM. Look for younger cm (22-24 are usually youngest scouts) with FK SA or corner SA, quallity near 7 stars.

Btw. Last season i've played CL semi finals (3rd) and won cup with 35T/season.

If I had T for scout, I'd buy only MC. Main disadvantage of scout's skills are equal stats. Thats good only for MC.
Last season I've bought nordgen GK, 64 rating, (5* @L10) for few tokens. I've only upgraded his def skills and at the end of season he had rating 68 (6*), def skills 77. Now he has rating 70 (5* L11) def skill over 80. I wouldn't change him now for scout GK because i dont think i could find scout with rating 74 and def. skills over 80 and he'd be older than my nordgen.
Nordgen defenders and ST are useful too because I upgrade only def/att and physical. My nordgen ST has rating 65 (weak 5*) att skill 73, physical high too.
However, MC needs all skills def, att and phy skills, so it's way harder to keep him at high quallity.
My ex ST, not nordgen, but for me more useful than scout.
He has similar age, attack and physical stats as scout, but low (useless for ST) defensive skills and he costed me 1T (49T saved)

"Have you tried to buy nordgen through negotiations? "

I 'm not in that LV, yet, I'm LV3/season 3. I have 1 good nordgen but going for more 5* I was in the middle of biding war and gave up.
I have a competitive team (going for my 3rd L, semi CH.L., semi CUP) so I must have many have 5* players. In some season at the future I 'll think about tanking.

Good post, people tend to massively generalizes advice to others, just because it worked for them.

I have both Nordgens and Scouts, it depends of what stage of the game you are at.

Nordgen and or Youth players tend to demand a lot of care! Scout come fully equipped.

A 18 yr old Nordgen or a 22 year old Scout are both desired items, highly recommended.

What is lacking in the popular misconception they your Nordgen or Scout will never SUCK! Pointless if they consistently rate 6 or less.

Again and again, people will push ONE thing that they feel give them big shinny trophies with handles, so YOU should do the same. Which is narrow minded and bad advice.

Peace.

Rivaldo, my seasons scout (LV3/League3) comparing with a 5 * young, blond, super Arian Nordgen, with 5M' value and no SA , after a bidding war of 15T ?
