charliereeves86 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 No this was full game with patch installed. I did do all the media stuff (Declare intrest, Say what a good player he is) But wasn't expecting Liverpool to give me him for that! I was well chuffed. And he went and scored on his debut and then two consecutive hat tricks...and then went and got injured! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ada5tra Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Nice result Charlie.If it were 2.9 million then I'd be incredulous but that's not an insubstantial amount of money,although cheap for Mr Torres.Bravo that man.Cheek pays.

jk54321 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 A lot of players go cheap in thsi game. In mine the following have all gone relatively cheaply: Dzeko £9.5M Higuain £15M Balotelli £6.5M Modric £8.5M Hamsik £10.5M Pastore £10.5M Seems if a player is unhappy he doesn't command much of a fee in this version.

charliereeves86 Posted November 8, 2010 Author Share Posted November 8, 2010 I thought i'd put a cheeky offer in, and they told me they wanted 123 Million, which i tried to lower but the lowest i got them down to was 119 Million. Then to get him offered to me at 29 Million was a result! If he can stay injury free he will score an absolute butt load of goals for me and what i would have paid for him will have been a bargain.

gmulv Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I had to pay 22m (in installments) for dzeko, tried to get him for less, but they initially wanted 40m, I got them down to 22m. He now plays for Liverpool, partner to Torres and the partnership is going well, if I remember correctly I'm about 12 games in and they have 20 goals between them!!

Cougar2010 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 What I think is a bit unrealstic that apart from signings by me the £20M mark has only been broken in 3 transfers in the first 4 seasons.. How is that unrealistic? In RL few players go for £20m+ infact any transfers over £10m normally registers in the top 30 or so for a season and with money issues affecting many clubs chances are prices will drop. Over the last five years there have been 24 transfers over £20m but these have been dominated by Real Madrid (8) and Man City (7) with Barcelona (4) the only other team with more than one. Five other teams make up the rest with one each and they are Man Utd, Chelsea, Juventus, Lyon & Bayern Munich. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In his save you don't know what is going on, was the player happy? close to the end of his contract? wanting to leave? fell out with the manger? etc etc. Over the next year much could happen in RL which would cause those players to move for less than £15m.

Charlie Reeves Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 I think if you gice them some media love and you have a high enough rep they will start considering their future at the club. But there is no reason for a club to sell a player for their base evaluation, even if they are unhappy. Look at Arsenal, even if Fabregas did want to go they weren't going to let him for for anything less than 50 Million. Usually a club lowers their valuation when a players contract is running out and they know they aren't going to renew. That's why i was happy at my Torres purchase, they sold their best player at base valuation to a premiership rival and he was happy at the time. Maybe the new owner's wanted the money?

rich10 Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 On the face of it, yes I would. But then consider that (in real life) Lucio moved for £3.5m, Gourcuff for £12m (rising with appearances) and Pedro Leon for only £3m. Although I do think that you only get the full value of the transfer by taking the wages x contract duration into account. Something is only worth what the purchaser is willing to pay.

They were obviously unhappy or transfer listed I don't care whether they were unhappy or not. Berbatov, unhappy at Spurs IRL and went for 30 million. Lescott unhappy, went for 20 odd million. Out of that group of players, not one would go for less than 20 million, I don't care how unhappy they were. Modric was signed for 16 million two years ago, I don't care if he refused to play another game again this season, there is no way he would be sold for 9 million. I like the game, I like the new things and realism genreally but Dzeko for 9 million, Modric for 8.5, Higuin for 15? Never in a million years.

As far as the game sees it it's all black and white; if a player is transfer listed then he can be sold for his value. Obviously the problem here is the player's aren't valued realistically enough. Ideally the AI would be able to assess a player's attributes and set a realistic asking price, but I imagine that would be very difficult to write code for Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
backpackant Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 SI just can't win, can they? One minute people are complaining the transfer market is too hard and that it's disgusting that clubs hold out for £128million for players like Wesley Sneider, and now unhappy/unwanted players are going a bit cheaper it's disgusting again. The transfer market will never, ever be as realistic on FM as I'm sure we'd all like it. But the rules are the same for the AI as for the human manager. The only problem I can forsee with this sort of thing is with a club like Man City or Man U or Arsenal or FC Bayern or Barcelona or Juventus, or any reasonably big club that you get into the Champions League, within about 5 seasons you'll have a huge number of top players and will quickly become unbeatable.

Berbatov was the biggest example of a player powe move but Spurs made sure they got what they wanted out of it.

It does seem to be generally, if a player is unhappy and the club want to sell him, his asking price gets set to his actual value, these are some of the playes on the transer list in my game, game date 2nd July 2011 Robinho - £10 Mil Sergio Ramos - £9.5 Mil Papastathopoulos - 5.5 Mil Pablo Piatti - £5.5 Mil Ryan Shawcross - £5.5 Mil Felipe Melo - £5 Mil Simone Pepe - £5 Mil Yossi Benayoun - £ 5 Mil Sami Khedia - £3.8 Mil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
