Thank you for this nice introduction to season 32, Dartreb.

I pretty much agree with your predictions regarding favourites for the coming season.

And to respond to your demand concerning organizing a poll, i will now do so.
Problem is that i have to create a new topic for this, i can't do so by replying to your message.
So i will create a new topic, only for the poll

Possibly Joe won't be the champion for the coming season, but i expect the Cowboys to come back to the top pretty quick.
What amazed me the most recently, is the amount Joe received for his sell of Connor Marshall.
I know it's Connor Marshall, but still getting 3.4 million for a player who is 34 years old, that's VERY rare !

Joe certainly hit a homerun with that sell, i had never expected the transfer price to be soo big.

And i'm pretty sure even Joe didn't expect to get so much money either.

Market is very high indeed. I'm looking for a player, and only find "suitable" ones for approx . 700 to 800 k above what I would have expected, that's crazy !

The player you are talking about Joe, is the legendary Häkkinen :-) And Connor was certainly not very far from him. Thus I'm not surprised by the price, and it is also a hint that training very high valu players is interesting since it is possible to sell them with benefits at a more advanced age.

I agree with you.

There are currently very high prices paid on the transfer market for high skilled aged players, but also for other players in general.

This makes it worthwhile to train (even older) good players up, get the beneftis of it by keeping and playing with them until 33-34 yrs old, and then still selling them at very good prices. Which on its turn, means you"ll be getting a high return on investment (ROI) for such players.

The transfer place is changing, that's for sure, and high multi-skilled players until age 34 are (currently) very wanted by many teams. I wonder how this will evolve in the future....

I am amazed by coach Q's stillness, but many teams could haul in world stars to unbalance the things in their favour !

Well as many said, the market is very high right now. Beside this, i might have mentioned this in the past - the only thing i want in this game now is to be world champion. It is not bragging at all, it's just that i want to aim high. And it is so tough to build a team that has the capability to win it all that i am trying to avoid buying players i dont believe in.

that being said i dont have enough competitive players right now and will have to take decisions sooner or later. but i dont think i will manage to be competitive anytime soon.

Well, that's the only title eluding you (and Joe's).

But I surely won't complain if it allows us lesser humans to have a chance of winning something :)

By the way, there are always less and less teams on BB (we're now around 20 k, I remember when it was above 50 !) does someone have any idea why the prices are so high ?

I'm looking for a subs player (so starter so) I can't find somrthing suitable under 1.5 M !! No way I'm paying that for a substitute.

@Joe : Yeah, that's an extremely disappointing start for AmenRa, double penatly to lose both a starter player and the game :/ I hope his season doesn't get screwed because of that.

Looks like I'm the next one after AmenRa to visit the altar of broken dreams.

Well played, it required some guts to play inside with Bellings vs Dabnys.

Yet it worked, I still can't understand why all my starting five was relegated on the bench in the overtime, especially with your big men so close to dismissal ... Why did that happen ?

Why, BUT WHY doesn't it work ? What the hell am I doing wrong ?
