Why are Icon loans so expensive?

20 games is not much. Surely the purpose of the loan card is to "try before you buy/commit to the SBC." It might be the only way some people get to use some of the icons.
Do not allow them to be used in the weekend league but do not make them 50k+
No one in their right mind would do that SBC.
You could even decrease the amount of games to 7/10 if needs be.
They should be priced around 10-15k. Maybe top tier icons (maldini, Gullit etc) 20/25k. That would also help to take coins out of the game compared to few doing the loans for any of those who cost 50k+ Even some average icon loans have cost that much.
This extends to POTM/other player SBCs.

I'd like to give him a few games again, but I either buy and hope to not lose on tax, or pay 50k for the privilege of 10 games.
Only for 7 games though.
Subs still use a contract.
They wouldn't be able to be used in WL anyway.
They should never be in WL.
Yes, I think that is the issue. I know subs use a contract, but it allows you not to use a contract if not necessary IE no point playing crespo if you're wining 5-0 before half time. I do agree loan players should not be available in WL.
Might make him push on to buy him outright
They won’t reduce it anyway!
Personally all loans should be excluded from WL.
I guess you have quite a decent squad then, I have a below average squad and it really gets to me when I come up against loan icons in wl. I lost in a crucial match and all goals against me where scored by a loan icon.
Whilst this is true, I’m trying to justify making em cheaper.
Yeah it’s ok. But you have the option of doing the loan sbc too. It’s not much different than the guy who’s shelled out a fortune on a team, whilst the opponent ain’t spent a dime
bit dramatic that like, "bitter and twisted" lol.
That is true but i see it as a waste of coins.
and as for the guys that shell out for the dream teams, the ones I come across are in my league for a reason, normally they are crap kids with too much pocket money, they have played with that team for a while and matchmaking has put them against players on their level, however if they have an average team and use a couple of loan icon strikers it gives them a massive boost to their normal capabilities.
Playing loan Henry 15 times in a row in weekend league was not fun
surely they will play the same for you no matter what version of the game you are in? if they play well in rivals then they will play well in WL ?
butra is pricey at 55
owen 26k
nesta 16k
nakata 8k
rijkaard 51k
crespo 51k
baresi 8k
figo 62k
That’s why no WL
Because I play a hybrid with finely balanced chem, I like to collect a few loan icons for central positions as red card cover in case I get like a CDM or CB suspended.
To that end, they last me a couple months with 20 odd games. Probably longer. For 20k a pop or whatever that isn't too shabby tbh.
I don’t do the loans myself, because they are a coin sink, but it really doesn’t bother me that people use them.
