That said, only quite recently i began to notice that other clubs are picking up great buys which somehow slipped through my net. Perhaps i was missing something?

Just wondering how everyone else goes about scouting? How did you find the players you mention in here?

Why would u want to know every big talent?
Ok, its always nice to snatch away a rival's biggest signing, but when i started playing this game i used to find so much talent, and not be able to resist buyin that i would end up with a team filled with over 100 players and
coz of that i got in all sorts of trouble.
Nowadays i look at the team i got, decide wich kinda player(s) i need, what age and where they should be from.
I will (e.g.) send a scout out to brazil to look for an striker under 20 and one to Denmark to go find a massive Defender, just for example, then i let them run for a bit and after a few weeks i look at the results and pick my favorites for them to scout more detailed.
This way (with proper scouts) i get result + i can concentrate on the team and time will fly!
As an bonus i like to have an Assistant with good judging abb.,
When i find an player who i believe fits right into the first team, i let my assistent watch him for a few matches, he also knows the way the team works and therefore wether a player will fit in or not! </BLOCKQUOTE>
I think you have me mistaken. I'm not talking about big talents. I'm talking about really great youngsters bought for silly prices like 500k when, despite my scouting network being so vast, my scouts never stumbled across.
What i also noticed is that sometimes i will stumble across a tiny foreign team with some stupendous talents that i never would have come across otherwise, despite investing so much time scouting.
Just wanted to know if anyone else uses some unheard of technique??
