his not over priced .

go to transfer list search.

put in skill outside def min sensational

then put max age 19

and search.

7 guys for sale of which 5 are 1 million + , 1 is 800k aswell and 1 is 400k but will sell for around a million.

always do your market research first :)

19 y/o superstar potential with sensational outside D for $800K
I wouldnt say he is a bargin, by any stretch of the imagination.

an 18 y/o superstar would probably sell for about $400k (zyler bought him for $450k-ish)..... z probably got this guy 5 or so pops in OD last season plus some othr pops in handling/JR etc. . Is that worth $800K?

seeing as though he could play defense nearly as good as many starting guards, id say yes.
also if you do a quick search on the transfer market for 19 year olds with minimum sensational OD? they are at that price or above.

Would i buy him for that price? probably not. But someone else will.

his also the highest OD 19yr old from poland at this point , so with good training his basically a shoe in for under 21 nt appearances .


edit: oh n i got him 7 OD pops last season :)

from mediocre to sensational in one season? thats not bad.

what r u doing helping the polish out anyways, didnt they win it last year? last thing they need is more help! ha.

think from a retail perspective

2 tv's are the same

but one is from the worlds leading brand
the other from a brand that doesnt even make the top 50 brands .

which one would more people be likely to buy ? and pay a premium in doing so ?


you guys will notice i do different things every few seasons , i like to test thing in this game , for example last season i had no interest in promoting as i was testing out the elastic theory in training.

which led me to getting 10 OD pops on the guy i sold for 1.4 mil , i was told when i started training him he had no chance at making the 21's russian nt team , i got him there and i did it in one season .
understanding how things work in this game has always interested me so ill continue to test out things each season until i decide i want to try to go to the abbl :)

legitmate question - how do you find the transfer market for a polish player being affected by the number of polish users?

ie: More users = more trainee's = greater supply = lower prices?

and the other theory being that, there is only one U21 side. In a small country, you have more chance of your crappy player being in the U21 team, so on the transfer market, a worse player may sell for more, compared to a larger market, where you may have an awesome player, but there are 10 others like him.

Or is it just not like that in reality?

with out giving to much away your on the right frame of mind.

ill add a few things though

if you have one of those new fish from a big sea he may not be very valuable unless his one of the best raised fish from a big sea , in that case he becomes more valuable to a larger amount of fishermen that want a local fish.

a new fish in a small sea however starts more valuable due to the scarcity of fish in that sea and while he will become more valuable then 90% of the fish in the big sea aslong as all fish skills are equal he will never surpass the fish from the bigger sea in price.

your hinting on something alot of managers have not clued in on yet :)

lol

so the lesson learnt is.

become a fisherman.

something like that :)

I will never surpass you guys... You guys are lol...

You look so much into this game... WOW

+1 ball for making me feel so smart.

its just like any economic market really. The transfer market has its peak periods where a player will be over priced.... and a player of a certain age will fetch a different value in certain times as opposed to other times.

there are good/bad times to buy/sell etc etc.

zyler is just taking it to that next level.

think about this example. All 18 year old MVP is going to sell for roughly the same (unless they have just straight up dodgy stats)... when it boils down to it, he has MVP potential....... But once he is 20/21, dependant upon how he has been trained, not all MVP potential players are going to be the same.
So, an 18 year old MVP has the 'potential' to be great, and hence is a better' guarantee' at high sale price, when compared to a 20 y/old MVP good but not quite so good MVP player.
Statistically speaking, if you took the average sale price of 18 year old MVP players, and compared the standard deviation (ie: the difference between cheapest to most expensive) and compared that to 20 year old MVP average sale price standard deviation... you would find a smaller deviation on the 18 year olds.
And thats how some people roll. They would rather sell their MVP trainee, than risk trying to train him, stuff up the training and then have to sell a partially trained 21 year old MVP.
Not suggesting that Zyler would stuff up the training.

but yer, lots of different scenario's like that. The fishy example that zyler gave is just the next level upon that example I gave.
