I read the piece above and I must say that I am happy that the game has made scouting and the academy more challenging: it's no longer possible to open a can of scouts and scoop a nice little talent from wherever, it really requires a bit more digging to find the right player. In my career, I am trying this time to gather as many real faces as possible - with that in mind I'm trying to keep Rugani at Ajax (on loan from Juventus) but my financial means just don't allow it whichever way I turn my pennies. So I feel you on the matter of that left back that you're forced to let go.

Yeah it's certainly proving difficult, in reality I could dip into youth scouting and quickly have someone good enough to join, but financially I can't just pick up any old player that's been scouted. I made a mistake and sent out 2 scouts, probably should've held out due to funds. Also was already eliminated from FA Cup and League Cup before joining so not generating much of an extra income for the club. Luckily there isn't many objectives for this season, but I've had to re scout in the general market to find players I can afford to bring in to play my style
