At the moment it seems like theres no consistency on the transfer market which can make it seem like theres cheating going on when really its just people getting too excited when bidding. I bought a player for 7,000 2 weeks ago and then last week sold him for 27,000 even though I'd started the bid off at 1,000. Thats his value going up 3 times its original value in 1 week. In other similar situations I'm sure its the same only with alot bigger values which can cause suspicion even when theres nothing malicious going on

And to complicate the transfer market further, you can't always assume the sole reason someone is willing to pay a certain amount of money for a player are the skills or the talent. Name or nationality may also matter to some. It's worth keeping in mind

But then when one guy is overpaying for players from one guy, it becomes suspicious. Not saying anyone's cheating, just saying that that is unlikely the case here

Yes, it's more a general comment based on the reply before mine. If this is something one does with regards to a bunch of players from just one team, then I'd question that argument - definitely.

hmmmm depends what you class as crap,



Well couple days ago, i saw a player at around 140k, his stats were appaulling, no fitness attributes over 9, no blocking/tackling/catching over 4, and hi consistency and teamwork were 2 & 3, or very close.

Now i dont care if he was a 5star player, that is not worth 140k lol

But people can get caught in a bidding war, I watched & bid on a lot of Dogs players when he left the game recently, and the bidding on a few jumped very quickly and some of his players were sold for silly amounts, it could be how low quality players go for high amounts.

Plus someone suggested a cap, but this just fixes prices and takes out some fun from the game.
