kingjericho Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 1- Buying a player that is on loan at a club and coming right away, not only at the end of his loan. This happens a lot. In Portugal many teams sign players that are loaned; they pay the club that has the player on loan a compensatory price, and they pay the player's club the price for the player and the loan ends and he comes to the new club right away. 2- Players that are unhappy or inadapted (sp?) agreeing to a mutual contract termination. This also happens to lots of players, e.g. Cristiano terminated his contract at PAOK to come to Sporting CP. Ricardo the same thing from Betis to Leicester, etc. I can't do this in FM. If this can be done please enlighten me on how to do it; if it can't be done I suggest this gets implemented for the next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
busngabb Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 You can terminate players' contracts. I've done it with a couple of very unhappy players in the past. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom_numbers Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 You can Private Chat with the players to ask about contract termination, or I think there's an option in Transfers. Not all players accept mutual terminations though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurf Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 1. You can buy a player but set the join date to the End of Season. Effectively you've bought them but they can still play him, sorta like buying him and loaning him back to the club (if that was the questioN? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Portugal many teams sign players that are loaned; they pay the club that has the player on loan a compensatory price, and they pay the player's club the price for the player and the loan ends and he comes to the new club right away. You can do this already, but only if the loan contract has a "can be recalled" clause on it, because if you were to buy a player without that clause then the club doing the selling would be in breach of contract and whatnot. Perhaps there should be an option for allowing compensation to be paid in these situations, but I can't see a big enough need for it really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biscotti Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Bidding wars for stadiums after special events. This would be pretty cool, but it would only work if the game had provision for countries building new stadiums for special events, which I don't believe it does currently and I doubt SI would be willing to code something like that.

I'm being a pedant because there are both solar eclipses and lunar eclipses and varying degrees of each are still considered eclipses (the moon barely covering 1% of the sun would still be an eclipse) Anyways, back on topic:- Players getting sponsorship deals. I'm not sure this would ever have any effect on gameplay, but it'd be an interesting element to consider. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benfica did this with Kardec last season, he was on loan at Vasco, Benfica paid Vasco a compensatory value, and he came right away to Benfica. it depends if the team loaning the player have spent a fee on him or not, if they have paid for the loan they have affectivly bought his contract for a season. I think in real life the club who owns the player would have to ask the team loaning the player if they are willing to let him leave right away and if so discuss compensation but i dont think it could be enforced. If players have loaned for free in the game they will join you right away if you buy them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quads Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Eugene can you just leave these forums?

AaronL22 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I would LOVE to be able to do training ground routines (set peices).

Ferthepoet Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Do something like say several clubs are interested in one of your players, go to one of the clubs and say the other clubs are offering x amount for the player I am thinking of accepting but if you improve the offer then I'll only accept yours Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something that you have never been able to do on FM . I'm afraid such a feature would end up being the biggest exploit-fest to date in the CM/FM franchise since the Diablo tactic... Recent editions of Championship Manager proved how easily you can "cheat" the match engine with a set pieces editor... Also the so-called Corner Bug has been present in some capacity for some years already, so I don't want to imagine how bigger the whole issue would get should SI implement a set-pieces routine editor. Back OT. * Managers signing pre-contracts with other clubs... Basically the only way to get a manager to change club is by sacking or by resignation. But such changes will rarely, if ever, take place at the end of the season, so the human manager too is forced to jump ship during the season if he wants a new challenge. That's not how it works in real life... Honestly I'm baffled SI haven't bothered to create a semi-credible manager change scenario... Contracts are more or less cosmetic... * Players getting contract offers by other clubs BEFORE ending up on the free agents list... That's a very serious issue too. Human managers can build an entire Starting XI every year just by signing good players who are out of contract and have left their old club. In real life they would get plenty of contract offers and would leave on Bosman without spending 10 seconds without a valid contract Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
