Career Mode Bargain Players and Best Buys
These are all players that start with low OVR but that have high Growth potential. It can be tempting to pick up a whole load of players that have 90 ratings - but you don't actually need them to do well in the career.
If you buy a 17 or 18 year old that has good potential, you can pick them up cheaply, and grow them over a period of several years.
Career Mode Bargain Players and Best Buys
Try to get the players with the best potential, and aim to retain them. Remember that sometimes a player won't be interested in changing teams - players that have just signed to a new club tend to want to stay there.
If you can't get a player that you have your eye on, look for others that have high potential and that are available for transfer.
Remember that players grow through experience. If you're keeping a kid on the bench then they won't reach their full potential.
So, spend a little on some great players when the chance arises, but invest in those hidden gems and develop them too.
