I remember the past requests were made to limit the number of times a player could end up on the transfer market, and other times there was talk of how to help new managers better assess the value of a player.

In this direction, perhaps a graph could be created, in the same style as the salary history, with the various times the player was placed on the market and at what amount, indicating with different colors whether the transfer took place or not.

This way new users can rate a player who has been put on the market many times at the same price and has always gone unsold as a "defect" and think he is not worth that value.

On the other hand, a manager who in need (to replace an injured person, to increase competitiveness in view of the playoffs, etc.) could still assess that the price is worth the risk.

I can see the thinking behind the original issue here. However, it is not the biggest problem with the transfer market.

Rather, the biggest problem is the fact that a manager can increase their own bid multiple times in a row on a single player. I know I'm probably alone in viewing this as a problem but I see no good reason why this is allowed. It seems like it is a good way for two managers to collude by dumping money from one to another.

Bringing it back to the original issues raised in this thread. Why is it viewed as ok for a single manager to increase a bid from $1000 to over $1M all by themselves and that isn't seen as a problem, yet a manager trying to sell a player multiple times until they get the value they think he's worth is a problem and needs to be stopped?

I'm really annoyed of seeing the same players in the transfer list every day with unrealistic values, and no intention of being sold for a fair value.



I have quoted your main issue to address specifically. I do not agree to the idea of punishing players for trying to improve their teams. I propose an alternative that might help your issue if the current transfer market search options are not sufficient.

What should be added is a “block” list, similar to the one to block users on the forums. If we are able to block a player so we don’t see their repeated listing every single day, or even to block a team to avoid seeing listings of any of their players, it would solve your issue without causing negative effects for others.
