This really does need fixing. I currently have a game with Man Utd in 2013. I have spent nothing net on transfers since the start of the game and my transfer budget has slowly increased year after year.

At the start of the latest season I was given 150M to spend witha wage budget almost 2M above what it currently stood at. Tottenham make an offer of 20M for a utility player Dor Malul who happily sits on the bench and makes 40+ sub appearances a season.

The board decide it's too good to refuse and except, even though there is almost 300M in the account. If I was in debt I could understand, if it was used to pay off some of the loan debt I could understand but where does the money go? Straight into the transfer kitty.

There is nobody in the game who could replace him and even if there was you would pay more than I got.

if you have so much money why not buy a few more players

I agree this is a crazy aspect. Its almost understandable of you are running a debt. Its also crazy for the chairman to not act with a higher offer yet enforce the sale with a lower offer

Call it a feature until SI get around to sorting this out. Its been a bane for at least 2 editions now though

I prefer finding the players myself at a young age. I never sign established players unless they are on a Bosman and I don't sign players over 21 either. So when the board decide to be manager for the day it means I have a hard time replacing established players.

I actually just ran a search based on the player they sold and he was the only player listed in the results. Was the best utility player in the game. Competent, Acomplished or Natural in every single position other than ML,AML and GK.

If SI insist on leaving this feature in the game they need to add an option threatening to resign if they go ahead with the deal.

ive found a work around for this problem, every time you sign a player or renew a contract, make sure you put a minimum transfer fee clause.

make the fee a silly amount and you never seem to lose the player to a chairmans stupidity.

For 20M who could you get to replace him?
