I think a solution would be to have an appropriate price estimate for the players coming from the BB based on the players skills(multi skills) instead of the estimate based on the market value or both of them. Don’t think that this would be a problem seeing that the skills are taken in account by the salary.
So even if the market fluctuates a users are paying more than this is their options but everybody would have a comparison to the real value of the player. I constantly see that my players are going up/down based on only one skill and one position even if it tells me that “players with similar skills…..” I can’t understand why my SF has a value of 2 mil and looking on the transfer market I see player weaker than mine going for 3.5-4 mil.
And yes I think that the problem is that users are willing to pay more for less, farms are not helping either.

Farms, teams getting into bed with one another, even countries conspiring to buy NT players and then ruining their GS.. if you can't beat em - sadly you gotta join em because technically its all legal!

Not just that. Some are activellly searching for non-NT high potential players with a big salary to hit the TL trying to buy them (typically via rich established clubs with lost motivation, allegedly going to quit) to be bale to fire them and prevnt them for further use for their respective NT. If their country save such a player from this fate by putting him on NT soone enough, such a player loses his sabotaging value (as he cannot be fired) and is placed on TL once again to free resource for another attempt on someone else.

Are you joking?Really?
The prices are at the minimum level from seasons,that's why there are few managers,especially in the range of the players you are searching,that want to sell their player,they think their player could go underprice.

The few that have the courage of putting on the market sometimes are prized,but sometimes have bad surprises...

How much do you want to spend for a PF in the 18-20k range salary?And what kind of skills are you searching(the most important thing) in this player?

Do you remember when I first started this thread? You said that the drop in prices was just the "usual drop" due to the off-season. Now you have changed your mind?

It was not hard to see this coming and the truth is prices are not going to come back. Even if salaries go down, it will mean that talent has progressed even further than now, meaning that either way any player who is not getting trained is losing value every week (there may be some exceptions, such as high salaried players who are not getting training or players who break the 150K barrier, but those will be few and far between).

So to sum up: if you want to sell a player, do not wait. He may sell for a lot less than he would have last season but those days are never coming back.

The good news is: prices for rare, multi-skilled players have not really been affected that much. The bad news: if you want that multi-skilled PF you are still going to have to pay.

The market situation at the moment is like "leopard stains",there is too much offer for some kind of players,whose price dropped very much during these period,and there is too low offer for other kinds of player,whose price rose at the previous level

I see greater oscillationt than in the past in the market,excellent players at low price remain not sold,while worse player,in absolute or for the salary/performance ratio are selling at the same,or at a higher price

What kind of PF is searching our american friend?A tri-skill inside player,with mediocre outside skills,players who can easily play as PF,are not at so high price.Instead,if he is searching more in outside skills,as some respectable or strong,the prices are very high

So,he would really need some player,he can find it at god price,if he is searching the best in that range the price are quite high
