The total bid amount available is 50,000 for 20 players. So that is just 25000 per player on average. I am wondering how i can buy 20 players given the base bidding cost of them is 60000.

Maybe i have not understood the bidding properly. Does anyone else not confirmed as participants want to join instead of me ?

Auction/Lottery

Firstly, I’ll explain the logic of the auction and player lottery. I wanted teams to get the top players by tactics, rather than just by luck. That’s why we’re doing the opening auction. Players are valued between £10,000 to £100,000, and everyone has £500,000 to spend on the players who they would like. If you want to go after the top players, that may hinder your ability to get a good squad all round. That is your choice of tactics. I suspect the £500,000 will buy most teams around 6 or 7 players.

The rest of your squad will be decided by a lottery. You will be given a budget post-auction of roughly £800,000 + anything you don’t spend in the auction. This will then decide what players you get. The more money you have for the lottery and the less players you need to buy, the better the players you will get. You have no control over the lottery beyond that though: there is a balance between spending a lot of money on the best players, and getting a team with the talented players more evenly distributed through it.

Adi, does this help explain things a bit better?
