I think that the next couple of seasons could see a remarkable increase of teams tanking.
Managers have money (as you do) but can't spend them because of the absurd prices.


So through tanking and making lots of money, they'll expect the prices to go down ? If more teams have more money, I would bet on prices going higher.


Although, if they tank and train lots of high quality players, they won't need to buy as many when they promote back up again. And, they could sell those highly trained players for a fortune if they wish to.

They do not expect the prices go down.
They just can't buy any decent player for any decent price.
And surely more money means more inflation.
It's a death spiral because of decreasing teams, decreasing trained players. The only way, right now, is to save FA as more as possible.
I hope that who manages the game understand this.


hear hear, this is exactly how bb is dying a slow death.

I really doubt this is the reason. The user base had already fallen quite a ways before the player prices started to inflate a couple seasons ago.

Or just maybe instead of trying to make the solution be dependent on people leaving the game (since that is, after all, where FAs come from), maybe instead increasing the supply of trained/trainable/playable players through other methods might actually be a better way.

Of course, whether that happens is a story with its own tale to be told. But if we ever reach a point where the only solution to problems that are causing people to leave require people to leave, the game's lost.
