Am I the only one who's frustrated to an extent no words can describe with how much through the roof player's wage demands suddenly get?
Sure, I had a great season and out of sheer luck I won the Euro League (until semi-finals I played "weak" teams only coming from non-simulated leagues and - as it seems to me - that makes things easier).
Sure, my wage budget got a tremendous boost (from 290ish to 380ish k p/m).
But players now demanding ~4times in wages, plus loyalty bonus sky rocketing from <5k to 100k+ for a 4 year contract, plus divisional bonuses ~50k? Not counting those greedy agent bastards fee.
I wouldn't argue about an increase that's somehow related to the increase in my wage budget, let's say +35% or even +50% - ****, I would even double their wages through the bank, but +300%?!
Sure, there's still more than enough money left (didn't even use half of my transfer budget) but all that came from a ridiculously awesome season and I don't think that those demands reflect any of it or whatever the player's wages have been before. Some of those initial demands are way above what I'm even allowed to pay!
I don't know if I did something wrong (except for being lucky I guess...) or if this is just something I'll have to deal with. It's really really frustrating and jaw-dropping to see a formerly ~10k p/m player now demanding ~35k p/m (not counting bonuses) and unless I'm not 100% sure that's "just like it is" it's killing a huge amount of fun (and even then it's still frustrating and not so funny).
