Ferdinand is for sale now, I decided to sell so he can be a striker and be more use to England in the future! ;)

I was very close to making him a mid given his talent but restrained myself! ;)

He sold for more than I expected given what others told me…..and he stayed in England!

No this you are no longer the Striker Academy :p

I don't get it. I mean, awesome money you got for him but I don't get the buyer. Let's say the player proves to be a real talent (not always a talented junior is a talented senior too) and pops up and becomes a super striker. Then what? You sell the player for a big amount of money. Let's say 6-7 mil. And you got a lot of games with an average striker (on his way up, ok) and your money back. Financially even but performance wise... still even. I hope I'm wrong. But I don't see why some users pay so much money for an 18 years old.

I disagree, look at what happened with Anthony Miller from my school, nothis got told he overpaid and then sold for a lot more……..

Ah, ok. That's my theory dismantled. Anyway, this prices are out of my reach, 9mil for 1 player vs 19 mil spent over 15 seasons on 124 players. But I guess 6th tier in Poland is where anybody aims to be.

Not surprised at all. Back in the day people would have been buzzing their **** off if they pulled a junior that good.

Perhaps that's because back then, the age part was lucky dip, but now that unknown is gone?

Yeah the unknown part is where the skills go…..talent and age are now know, Miller was a late 17 yr old and I believe skills were similar although not quite as high overall as I think he was a Brilliant whereas Ferdinand was Unearthly.

Miller was bought for 7.75m and sold for just under 10m I believe.

I have seen really nice mids sell for 11-12m!!!

18yos are likely to be where things need to be at long term. I suspect better now than a 16yo with lower skills with shorter seasons, they may not get to the same level as the 18yos.

I could do with a funds boost like that though!

I did over spend for Miller, but the enjoyment i got from training him was priceless ....... and i made a profit too :P

Decisions, decisions.....very nice Brilliant!
