Jonas66 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 I know nobody from SI is going to give this away, and that's not what I'm expecting, but from playing the game, what's the general consensus about what makes up a player's value? For example, I am playing as Truro, and have got them to the Premier League in 2020/21, albeit a struggling, battling to survive relegation team. However, I have 2 ML / AML that I kind of rotate. One is rated by my assman (Ricky Sbragia) as ability 1.5* and potential 3*. The other is rated as ability 3* potential 4*. I shall name them player A and player B as both are regens. Player A is 21, B is 22. Both are Italian and were released by clubs about 2 years ago and signed on FT's. Both favour the ML position and I play a standard 442. Now player A is worth £1.4m and player B is worth £3.4m. Both have 3 1/2 years left on their contracts. Now my query is this, Player B started the season as first choice, based on his higher value and his higher rating. After about 12 games, he had 1 assist, no goals and a rating of 6.74, so I gave player A a couple of games. He got 2 assists, 1 MOM award and a rating of 7.4 over those 2, albeit slightly easier games. So I stuck with him for a bit and gave him some game time, whilst still rotating occasionally as he gets tired after a couple of matches! He has become my first choice though. Now in mid January, Player A has played 13 games, 2 goals 7 assists, 3 MOM awards and average of 7.35. Player B who has now played 18 games has 2 goals, 2 assists and an average of 6.86. However, their values haven't changed. Player B is still worth £2m more. Also, their ratings haven't changed. So what is value based on, I've got clubs interested in player B, who I am considering selling, because though player A has been the best player in my whole team, but nobody wants him and his value wont increase. I would expect things such as contract length and current form to play a far greater role in the player's value, but as far as I can see they don't count as much as these hidden CA and PA attributes, which would be fine if they dictated how a player performed, but they don't seem to, hence why my 1.5* player is far out performing my 3* players.

ung_kung Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 i think the value will increase if he won some thing like goal of the month or team of the week. check their reputation. also national cap is matter too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koki Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I think, mack4life is right. A player's value mostly depends on his reputation. And his reputation is linked to the reputation of his league/club. As ung_kung said, events like getting a call-up for the national team or an award can slightly increase a player's value. Of course age and contract length also play a part in calculating a player's value. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggusD Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 It's calculated like this: CLUB REPUTATION PLAYER REPUTATION wage contract length Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
omaroo Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I would agree the player and club reputation is important as well as the wage to determine the value. But how is the contract length a factor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
milnerpoint Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 because a club has more power when the player still has a few years left on his contract, whereas if he has a year left on his contract he holds the power. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cxavie Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 What I also noticed is that a player who plays in continental games CL/EL will get a higher value especially if he has assists and goals. The assists and goals also counts for your domestic competitions. This is why you almost never see goalkeepers and defenders with a high value. So it's Competition, club stature, transfer price, contract length, yearly wage, position, assists, goals (domestic/continental/international) contintinental matches and international caps. So there are alot of factors what makes up player values. For example: You buy player x for €30 mil on a 5 year contract with a yearly wage of €6 mil as Barca. This player will probably get a value around €40 mil. Player x is a striker and plays 40 matches for barca makes 30 domestic goals and 10 continental goals. He also get's 10 international caps and scores 6 goals. His reputation and value will rise even more and he will be worth around 60 mil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koki Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Objection! A player value usually never exceeds 40 million €/36 million pound, unless the player gets bought for more. Although your goal and assists example may be true to an extend, in my savegames it is quite normal that Arsenal/Manchester/Chelsea reserve players who never even played for the reserve team have a value of something like 5-6 million, whereas my top striker aged 21 who scored 19 league goals this season and 17 last season but in a smaller country (=Germany^^) is only valued 1.9 million :-S So league and club reputation is the mooost important factor because it vastly influences a player's reputation.
