Transfer Thread

[pal]

I would say it is. I don't follow the very top end of the transfer market, but only the top internationals go for more than 10 million so I'd be looking higher than sensational.

How much would you spend for Steven Carden (http://www.battrick.org/nl/playerDetails.asp?playerID=117864)?

 

[FreddieFan]

Erm, a lot. I personally wouldn't buy him though, wouldn't like a player with the fitness limitations NT would provide.

Highlights the point that Sensational, especially with low secondaries, isn't worth 10 million. An extra 3 million gets you 4 more levels (sensational to phenomenal), but dropping down 4 levels and you're looking at 7 million for a Quality - way overpriced. That analysis puts sensational at around 8.5-9.2 million, which seems much fairer to me.

Gregory Couger is pretty good value for money, despite slightly low secandaries. Easy to boost though.

Kruger? He definitely seems a better buy than Hangana, but it seems that Labrooy bought him for 8 mil. two months ago. Do you think he bought him and then trained him to a higher level before selling or is he just looking to make a profit?

Apologies, he's the one. There might have been a little bit of training but it's basically the same player. However, the nature of the top end of the market is unpredictable, if no-one else with the buying power is around for a few days you can pick up a bargain. Just because Labrooy struck gold a couple of months ago doesn't necessarily mean he's not value for money now, and he might be selling him simply because he thinks the profit is there to be made. I'm inclined to agree with him, but the longer you watch the market, the better you get to know it and the more likely you are to pinch a bargain.

Anyone noticed a lot of the top end players arnt selling for there asking price?
Most i think are over priced anyway, but certainly a sign of a correction in the market place, how long though will the trough last ?

I ended up buying a sensational batsman for 7.4 million, but his concentration and stamina are somewhat low.
