You cannot save money for 10 seasons with the weekly increment in place. I only suggested removing the one time transfer bid with a salary based bidding system, not the weekly increments which ensures staff turnaround.

So how would you make managers to change an staff by the time?

You make managers change staff by using the current system where the wages increase weekly.

What changes in the system I propose is the staff's starting salary is dependent on the salary you offered him. So managers don't have to part with a lump of transfer funds which doesn't go back into the market but instead just payoff the severance fee and start paying the new guy his salary.

It also brings a sense of realism to the game where employers offer you better paychecks to change jobs, not a huge lump of cash.

Here's a bonus : Once you hire a staff, he remains yours for two seasons. After two seasons, other teams can offer him a bigger paycheck to prise him away from you. Makes those with really rare specialties be much sought after. It's very much a rough idea, not a complete product.

I understand the system you are proposing, however meanwhile I will have an luck and get a coach lvl 6 with wage 25k, and this wage will be permanently 25k, I have no motivation to change him by the time...

..do you have any solution for that?

Perhaps I worded my previous post a bit too blurry.

Wages are not permanent. Like the current system, it increases every week. So this week you pay 25k, next week you pay 25.5k and so on.

Well problem could be on my side, while I'm not used to speak fluent english.

I suppose that this system would make you bid on like 50k or more to get the coach, wages could be enormous, because if there isn't such a staff member for a next 24 hours, there will be wage bidwar and than we are at the same situation, however with great expenses every week...

50k would be a little extreme. If a manager decides that he wants to pay 50k a week to one of his staff, I say we let him.

Or if we don't go with the weekly increase if salary, we can go for the two season staff lock. Staff is paid a set amount which does not increase and is obligated to serve your club for two seasons. After two seasons, other clubs can 'see' your staff and his salary. If they think he is suitable, they can offer him a higher salary. You have 3 days to offer him a better salary before he leaves for the new team.

That way we don't have to worry about people keeping low paid staff for 10 seasons or so. And it puts the onus on the clubs to actively scout and pinch these low wage earners.

On coaches with speciality and with level 5, 6, 7 - I would not see 50k wage as an extreme - without other investments.

You can imagine that if you want to erase momentally investment during bidding which is on current system (600k-2,2M), these money have to be spent by other way and this other way is on your suggestion a wage...

..this can create great demand from lower leagues, because they will be now capable to bid on that too, that means even stronger wage bidwar...

In this context is current system genious, in my opinion

allowing teams to arbitrarily profit by good deals over time with no built-in mechanisms to prevent this


You are talking like a cop.
