Players who hand in transfer requests

[Aracnyd]

So I tend to pick mid table teams to play as in the game. I always have one or two of my top players begging to be let go. I try to get them to stay, but if the usual promises of higher finishes doesn't work, I tend to give in just to keep the squad harmony high. I always find that at the end of the season, if I'm well placed, that they almost invariably ask to be removed from the transfer list.

Sometimes I just want to say stfu, you can leave because you were being a ***** and I don't need that.

But on the other hand they are my best players usually. Haha.

Most recent was Stefan Savic on my Fiorentina save. He has top potential, scored 5 goals in 3 games as a Central Defender, but just asked to leave for no reason. I only have a few games to go in the season and I'm sitting top of the league. Well, what do you know? He wants to stay! Grrrr

Anyhow, anyone else get this all the time? Do you keep them or let them go?

This isn't anything new in football dude. Look at Wayne Rooney, can almost guarantee he will hand in a transfer request if United don't make Champions League, yet if they do he won't. The players have ambitions.

Just finished a season, Kagawa wanted to leave, won the CL, EPL, Community shield (lol) and the league cup, I can't find a way to fit Kagawa into how I play (442) and he then asked to stay.

I love him, don't get me wrong, but when PSG come bidding ?60m then I'll just buy Verratti for ?20m

I was just asking about how people dealt with this as managers in the game. Not if it ever happened irl.

I thought it couldn't be just me getting it all the time. Like I said, top of the league, in the champions league spots. It just made me think that it can't be just me getting this despite the results I'm achieving.

If he asks to leave and i don't want him too then i set my asking price ridiculously high, it wards off any future captors and after a month or two he begs to stay ... then you speak to him in a private chat and tell him to improve and watch him turn into messi and ronaldos love child (assuming he was any good to begin with, but if he isn't any good i wouldn't wana keep him and would get rid anyway ).

I sat Santi Cazorla on the bench for two whole years before selling him for like 8 million pounds.
Heres why:

1. His shoots from distance PPM is horrible, though not as game breaking as before
2. alex oxlade chamberlain outplays him as an IF-S on the right side from day 1.
3. he asked to leave, i told him to stfu, he complained, so i sat him in the reserves
4. It made me happy
5. none of my opponents got a quality player off of me for cheap
6. it made me happy, ha.

But it can be done. He never asked to be removed from the transfer list though, despite winning the PL both years he sat in the reserves.

Wouldn't if of made more sense just to sell him to a foreign club? I sold him to Barca for ?30m in the 2nd season

Yeah. In the game, he is just awful. I have regens who play better than he did. -_-

To flip this you can make other team players request moves kind of easily.
I have done this with Ben Davies, Eduardo Silvio and Benteke in order to sign them. It can be annoying when it is your team but if they are not your top players then let them go, if they are then sell for top money, there are always other players.

well yea, ha, but i didnt get a 30m offer from barca .

i couldnt get anyone to give me more than 11 million pounds, and my team was successful, budget was good etc etc, so i just sat him there rather than sell him. Of course, the wage was so high that after two years I gave, my point was that its possible.
