Smoo

Once again, AI teams are getting better transfer terms than player controlled teams. Every year this happens and every year you say it doesn't happen. Screenshots clearly showing AI teams will demand higher loan fees for player controlled teams than AI controlled teams. The same happens with player contract negotiations, I offer better terms, player rejects me for a worse contract. Rangers and Celtic. Almost identical reputation. Same league, same league reputation. Rangers are league champions. Rangers are in the Champions League, Celtic are in the Europa League. And yet, teams and players accept lower terms for the Europa League team. Happens every year. You deny that it happens every year.

Caicedo is on a 7 year contract, PSG bid (less than half what I paid for him) and he wants to leave, 18 months into his contract. Honestly, you think is realistic? I have to make multiple bids and talk about the transfer to the press, and half the time it doesn't unsettle the player. But the AI can unsettle my players at will. Even if I manage to unsettle the player, the AI won't sell for double his valuation, whereas my players will never accept anything over 10-15% of their valuation. And if that player happens to play in the same league, or is a rival of some kind, then the asking price doubles again, but not if the AI is buying, no no, then the price they expect to pay stays the same. I also have numerous other players wanting to leave because they're not playing enough, including a 19 year old Arda Guler. Some of these players, Sterling, Mudryk, Badiashile, have spoken to the press demanding to leave. Show me the real life interviews where players act like this. I have no idea how you cannot see this is beyond stupid, year after year after year. Even the fact the PSG would attempt to buy Caicedo at this stage of his contract is hilariously stupid.

Teams who finish in the top 8 of the group stage receive no financial reward for doing so. Meanwhile teams who finish 9th-24th enter the Play Off Round and are awarded £8m for their appearance in the round. Seems very unrealistic that UEFA wouldn't award prize money to the best performing teams.

Malang Sarr is transfer listed for £13m. I (Rangers) offer £13m and start contract negotiations. Celtic bid £0+ and those terms are accepted. He (of course) rejects me, despite offering a higher wage and a more important squad status, not to mention we are champions, and in the Champions League. I investigate the terms of the transfer Chelsea agreed to sell to Celtic and they agreed to sell for 20% next sale. That's it. No money. In order for Chelsea to make more money from Celtic's terms, they are relying on Celtic selling him on for over £65m.

10 players asking to leave. And of course, I can get nowhere near the AI's insane valuation for players. At best I can, maybe, get them to agree for ~£5m over their value, while AI teams demand at least double what the player is actually worth, which their players agree with.

Trying to sign a new centre back, bids accepted for Odilon Kossounou and Anel Ahmedhodzic. Both players want insane wages, Ahmedhodzic in particular wants a 500% wage increase from his current contract. Kossounou's agent indicated only a modest pay rise, then demanded almost 300% increase.

Marc Cucurella picked up his 10th yellow card of the season in the 36th game of the season, and incurred a 2 match suspension, despite the 8th, 9th and 10th yellow cards coming after the 32nd match amnesty.

4 seasons in and the first Old Firm game of every season is at Celtic Park. The SPFL very deliberately alternate the venue of the first Old Firm game every year between Rangers and Celtic to avoid accusations of bias.

Sepp Van Den Berg gets a transfer offer from Real Madrid, I negotiate it to £20m up front, £20m 12 months later. He wants me to accept the offer, it's a great deal, so I accept. He rejects the contract on the same day, and is now unhappy because he wants to join Real Madrid as they are a bigger club. Replicated this a second time, except I got £25m upfront and £20m in 12 months time. Offer comes in on Friday 29th Aug. Uploaded the file Rangers Transfer Bug
