I resigned as manager of Man City after winning the league, i then took over at Crystal Palace in Division 2 for a new challenge. I want to sign some of the youth players that i signed for City. I shortlisted most of them and the new Man City manager has offered me some. When i go to sign them, the SMFA block the deal. There is nothing wrong with a manager signing former players. This is not cheating. The Man City manager is not myself. Please look in to this.

I am manager of Stoke, my friends and 3 sons are also managers in same gameworld but not allowed to buy from each other. We cant compete fairly when teams at the top have ALL the top players and put ridiculous prices on them. We don't CHEAT, and just want to buy the players from within our own clubs

Please would sort out the system you use for producing the results. I have noticed lately that results are becoming more and more random. In one game world last week, I won 7-1 away from home and 5 other teams won 5-0 away from home. one game was Man Utd 0-5 Shaktar - WHAT A JOKE. what are you basing the results on? its ridiculous. why spend months building top squads, only to lose to the worst team in the league at home when all their players are useless or unfit. My barca side in WC7310 won 15 of their first 19, then lost 15 of their next 24.. thats ridiculous!! same players, same formation what is going on?! and why dont sendings off seem to affect results? Also, you have introduced these friendlies, yet my teams seem to always lose them, against unmanaged clubs with loads of players out of position!!! Also, why dont you have a process for logging complaints about the game? its as if you dont like negative feedback. please deal with the results system, otherwise I will quit the game

Hello. As doesn't look you will look at Finland soon, can you at least review 2 players?
One is Hoivala from KuPS. He is just rated 73, but played 24 full games for the current leaders.
The other is Ville Oksanen of MyPa. Played 25 games and scored 3 goals, what is low for a 74 rated.
Thanks

The last 3 times I have tried to join a club I press take control and then it goes back to the menu and at the top it says Invalid club ID. I don't think I have done anything wrong but I am getting blocked from managing good teams with good players. Does anyone know the problem?

I played 7 games tonight and lost a player in every single one. I had 6 injuries and 1 red card. How is this fair or realistic? How can I expect to put out a competitive team when I continue to lose players? Nothing in my tactics explains this.

trying to buy a player from leeds utd as they havent had a manager for over 7 days now but it still shows this
You currently can not do any transfers with this club as the chairman has recently lost their manager and it is in a transitional period. This period could last up to 7 days.
when go in for a player, when it has already past 7 days

Most of the players work together and discuss transfers. I loaned three players to charlton this season as i have a large squad. At the end of the season, my friend offered me £7 million for adam johnson which i have accepted only for it to be blocked. This has happened all season and makes me wonder what is the point in playing anymore. This is the reason i haven't upgraded to the gold membership. Please can you try and sort this out! Thanks gary

My team Shahktar big £12, 540, 000 for Afellay, Valencia a day later bid £12, 540, 000 - yet PSV decided to send him to Valencia after accepting both bids? Why? I got my bid in first. We came 2nd on Div 1 last season, they came 12th, we're 1st when this happened and they were 14th. We have won trophies, they have not.

I have bids in for loads of player but have loads of naff ones on transfer list, is there a number restriction as to how many you can have in a squad?

I agree very much with this. Computer teams that have virtually not fit players perform as though all of their players were 100% fit.
Answered by Nick Fellows - 11 years ago
Well try swapping 1 of your good players with someone in your league, but ask them for cash as well.
Answered by Trevor Charles - 11 years ago
This is because it is a different club to urs that is why and u can not buy ur own player so tuff leave ur team and go to another team and buy dzeko.
LOL
Answered by Francis Watson - 11 years ago
I didn't count exactly.
But usually you can try to offer to buy their club player, there are always a pop up messages saying minimum 7days if the club is still contacting/approaching/offering the post to someone (status not unknown).
If you get an offer from the club (previous manager just resigned), the offer usually last 5days.
This show the club might be using 7days or more to get a new manager.

This has not changed. You can search for either a Club Name or Player by going to the top right box under the icon bar where you find the Help (displayed by a "?" icon).
You can also used the "Advanced Player Search" by going to Transfers - Search- to find players
by Position,Rating,Value, Nationality or Free Agent.
Please also try and upgrade your current Browser or alternatively try another browser (like Chrome) to see if this will solve this issue.

Answered by dickson nana123 - 11 years ago
i know what do you feel ,i have the same problem,but the response is simple, after great season all your enemy teams become stronger and that means that you need some new players in your squad(probably the best u can buy, it helps much).this fact means that every team changes the game and become stronger
Answered by Nikson Kejeh - 11 years ago
I've experienced the exact same thing.
Played a team of players who had an average of around 92, same as mine. That's fine.
The problem was the manager hadn't logged on for nearly a month and his starting 11 were almost entirely NMF. My players were 100%. I lost.
I get that on any day any given team can win a game. But not when your players would be unable to physically compete for 90 minutes because they're as good as hospitalised.
This does need looking into.
Answered by Dean Krol - 11 years ago
I like the player concern feature IN THEORY, but it DOESN'T work here.
The idea is a good one. It stops people from buying all the good players and never playing. It is realistic in that sense. Good players get pissed if they are benched.
The problem is that it doesn't make sense. I've had players play almost every game of the season and go up to level 3 because they're not being played enough.
Something needs tweaking.

Click on the globe icon on the top bar for the player database which gives the recent ratings changes. As for the real life clubs database I think thats long gone, I've looked for it myself and never managed to find it!

They just seemed determined to ruin this game! The transfer market is completely ruined now as well. Every unmanaged club is listing all their players even though they can't even sell them due to their squad size!
Answered by david mccabe - 11 years ago
To sell players transfer list them.
To buy players search for them by name or position and make a bid.

Seems likely that your wage bill is too high. You may have to sell some players to free up your wages a bit.
Answered by Lorik Morina - 11 years ago
I'm guessing one of their players is either there on loan or retiring.
Answered by Liam Arnold - 11 years ago
That's not quiet completely true, because I have seen players have been added but haven't played any match yet. And also players that are not in the database but already have played games for a club before. And this adding of players is just really rediculous, because in the Dutch Jupiler League some clubs gets new players and they haven't played any match yet, than the starting team could be only excist of 14 players. Every player that just gets a contract at the club, even on amateurbase must be added to the database and why people have to vote for it? There should be just a few people from every country that always update the teams and the leagues. It is just taking too long before every transfer have been changed to the database. Before I could edit myself players, but since last month it's not possible anymore, what is happening to this soccerwiki?
Answered by eddy mai - 11 years ago
I believe it is related to their relative value in your team, in a team of very highly rated players such as Iniesta, Messi, Ronaldo etc. a player with less rating (such as Dzeko) will be of less value to that team, and consequently be only worth 8million. However on the other world I would expect he is one of the most highly rated players in that team, so his relative worth to that club is significantly greater!
Answered by Francis Watson - 11 years ago
The site usually doesn't add players to the database until they've played a professional game for their club. Since Januzaj has only featured in pre-season friendlies, I don't think he's going to be added until he plays for the first team in a competitive fixture, such as the league or the cup.

If unmanaged teams want your players then you recieve bid but if managed teams have plans and some your players a part of making the plan a success you receive bids but if not no bids
