Quite a lot of the youths available at the start of the game on frees are pretty average.

One of their top scouts has admitted to consulting it.

Thought you could have worked that out...
The lack of a comma gave it a completely different meaning, and I guess it's obvious that I didn't work out that he'd missed it out.

Why is that you have players like Michael Ballack listed with a sales price in the 60-70m pounds+ price tag, when in real life he would never go for that amount (not counting that he went to Chelsea on a Bosman, but before that), same with Raul, Xavi, etc.

I mean I once found Inter had a 104m price tag on Adriano? What the...?

most of the german clubs are rich (this is on 01/02 btw) the game is up to 2089/90. Most of the big clubs have stadiums over 200,000 and make a lot of money easily. ive managed Schalke 3 times on this game, first time when i left they had about 3b pounds, when i went back about 20 seasons later the finances always stayed at 0, but i effectively had as much to spend as i wanted, this time the finances is at about 2.46b or something similar.
