Here we are... again.

(21285296)

But compare to last season the situation is even worst. You buy youth that you'll resell for the same amount after 6 seasons of full training. Nothing wrong there cause I also like to grow 18 yo players but I can't do anything to have a decent one on my draft

The example you are showing us is a really rare occurence, I believe. This player should be worth 2 millions tops. Somebody liked him so much he spent 4 millions, so what? Somebody chooses VW Passat over Škoda Octavica and pays a lot more where Octavia is only slightly worse than Passat and definitely worth its money. There are many more examples like Passat/Octavia; if you want something and you have a lot of money, you will spend a lot of it. Like in the case you mentioned.

I bought a PG with 4.777 salary and MVP potential for 1 million. What's the difference between mine and the one in your post? Mine will train half a season more. Is this worth 3 additional millions? I doubt it.

So the 18y olds are still going for normal prices. What you showed us is an exception to the rule.

Probably yes, but have you think that you can find a good center well trained (of course not a top player) at the same price you've spent for your 18yo? It means, why BB should give a similar gift to some random players?

For 1 million, I can probably find a C with good secondaries and 70k salary. Now let's see how much does my C cost me in three seasons compared to 18y old:

Center:

First season, 14 x 70.000 = 980.000
Second season, 14 x 67.000 = 938.000
Third season, 14 x 64.000 = 896.000
TOTAL: 2.814.000

Trainee:

First season, 14 x 4.777 = 66.878
Second season, 14 x 7.500 = 105.000
Third season, 14 x 16.000 = 224.000
TOTAL: 395.878

Difference between wages in three seasons: 2.418.122

It is true that the C will start to contribute to my team right away, while my trainee will take at least three seasons' time to be able to start a game for me. But in the end, my trainee will look exactly like I want him to, while the C I bought probably won't.
