Armin Veh hahaha he hates me too!

How a manager feels about you does play a part in whether a club accept a bid or not. I struggle to buy players from Armin veh, Martin O'Neil and Sol Campbell, but Roberto Mancini loves me!

I had a 20 million bid for diego accepted, he wanted to go, but then Arsenal went in with a lower bid, it was rejected, Diego then rejected me (after offering more than he wanted) and when I re-bid, they would only accept 70 million.

I think it makes sense.

If i was selling something for $100 (stupid american keyboard) to someone and someone else came in, i'd want more money. Or else what's the point?

Give me more money and i'll sell it to you kind of thing.

wanting more and getting more are two different things. if teams enquired for my £5M rated striker and he's performaing above that standard, i'd hike the price to match his importance to my team and current form, taking into account reluctance to sell. even if i ask for his current value of £5M, usually the interest by the AI would be withdrawn. this is annoying when the interested teams are bigger, richer clubs.

when bidding for an AI player however, this doesn't balance out. i might enquire for a neglected £7M rated player and get asked for something stupid like £15M. reluctance to sell to a rival is one thing, but a player who isn't valued enough by an AI team to be involved in the 1st team should be more easily attainable from AI teams.

its even more annoying when a £350K AI player gets a £5M price tag, including 45% next transfer fee clause, yet it gets hiked up again with clauses after i agreed to their demands after an enquiry. then i withdraw the bid, bid £2.5M and the AI team accept the offer as too good to refuse.

Juventus might also think that you have more money to spare and that therefore you would be willing to pay more for that player.

NepentheZ has some valualbe research there. You can see the changes instantly in FMM.

I checked on Torres' sale price and put in a bid - but not straight cash (player exchange I think). The bid was rejected and when I immediately checked FMM his sale price had quadrupled to over £100M.

I don't accept that it's a bug, but it's certainly interesting to note the AI's logic.
