General Help/FAQ: Transfer Deal Tips

July 18th, 2008 by SM Dev (ste)

The Online Help contains a wealth of information, and I will advise all members to refer to it if they need any information or help in relation to the site.

There is a section within the Online Help called ‘Transfers‘, and this is an excellent point of call for any newcomer to the site. The following information is from within the ‘Transfers‘ section:
Hint 1: Before placing a bid for a player from a managed club we recommend sending the manager a private message (PM).

Hint 2: Before placing a bid for a player add him to your shortlist. This will generate a message with a ‘rumoured bid’ price that will help you decide how much to bid.

Hint 3: When you go to approach to buy a player a players chairman will give you an amount he believes you will have to pay at least to sign the player.

Hint 4: Look at the squad you are buying a player from. If you are trying to buy one of a teams top defenders then you will have to pay more than buying a defender who is there 6th choice defender for example.

Hint 5: Use the player valuation as a guide only. You may have to pay twice the players valuation or more if he is a key member of the club’s squad.

Hint 6: The same applies with selling players. Your chairman will not let you sell key squad members for cheap but may let players who are not ‘first teamers’ go for less.

Hint 7: After playing the game for a while you should be able to decide what is an acceptable deal and what is not. A good tip is to look back on the previous transfers to see what deals have been completed in your setup.

Hint 8: You may have to spend over 3 times a player valuation for the top players on the game.

Hint 9: Every setup and club is different. Chairman’s decisions are based on individual players and squads. What you paid for a player in one setup may be different from another. ie the chairman may let you sell Ted Smith for £3m in one setup as he is not a top player at your club but not let you sell him for £3m in another setup as he is a top player in that club.

Hint 10: The amount of funds you have available will have an effect on how much the chairman will let you spend on a player.

As I stated earlier I will advise all members to refer to the Online Help it if they need any information or help in relation to the site as it contains a wealth of information.
