I'll be interested in a player I believe can make my team better right away and will end up in a bidding war that I almost always lose.
When you target players you'd like to purchase, are you looking at the Auction End date/time, or just the transfer price? There's a big difference between a $100,000 transfer than ends in 10 minutes and a $100,000 transfer that ends in three days. The latter is going to go way, way, way up before the auction ends. It's the nature of auctions. You may be targeting guys you can't really afford. Just a suggestion.
