Its the one thing i hate about fm manager is the ridiculous price u have to pay for players.
80 million pounds for silva, 60 million for toure, 70 million for joaquim. Now i understand these are top players and they themselves might not want to come to my club(am spurs), but in real life no player would ever go for this sort of money. also in my game chelsea just bought Guiseppe Rossi for 60 million and thats just a joke. Anyone else find this totally unrealistic
you don't have to pay a rediculous amount for players you are choosing to. There are only a few players per team who you have to pay way over the valuation for. In real life how much do you think it would take for someone to buy kaka, ronaldo, terry etc when there manager has no interest in selling them.

so u think 60 million pounds for rossi is realistic, i dont think so. Also it dosent matter if a manager doesnt want to sell a player, most club owners would override a manager for 30 to 40 million sterling. Then if a player didnt want to move then fair enough.

Rossi is an example of someone who many of us feel is hugely overrated, not exactly the same issue as the transfer fees. I do not disagree that some fees paid are over the top but there are many transfers that go through that seem reasonable or even on the bargain side. I was annoyed to see that Borowski went to a lower prem side for 6mil when i was desperately seeking a CM.
The fact is that you only have to pay rediculous prices for players that the other club really do not want to sell. It happens in real life all the time, a club will say some rediculous price like 'It'll take £70 million for me to even consider selling that player'. They say this because they know that no-one would actually be willing to pay this sort of money for that player, and therfore there is no transfer activity involving the player in question.
If you or any other team in the game actually chooses to pay that much money for a player then it really is your own fault. You've just got to see it as the opposing team saying they're not interested in selling that player.
And Chelsea paying over the odds for a players is defenitely not that unrealistic. They've payed over the odds for almost every player they've signed in the last couple of seasons. Perhaps £60 million is a bit of a stretch but if it was for a player that they really wanted that the club really didn't want to sell then it's not that bad.
Besides, in a couple of years I'm sure we'll seee a transfer close to £60million as the amount of cash in football keeps increasing.

there has only been one player who has come even close to 50 million pounds and that was zidane one of the greatest players of all time.I dont think that amount will happen again in the next decade so i beleive your argument is invalide

Yes i understand rossi is overated, but in real life if he was as good as he is in fm manager 60 million is still far to much.

Even if this turns out to be true it certainly doesn't make the rest of my argument invalid.
When teams really don't want to sell a player then they won't. The only way they'll consider it is if a team offers a rediculous amount of money. However, in real life teams would never be willing to offer this kind of money so the player stays where he is. But if you do decide to pay £60m for a player then it's you that's doing something unrealistic and not the game.
