Football Manager 2015: 10 Most Infuriating Things That Always Happen
7. Player Enjoys A Good Run Of Form. Wants A New Contract
Your first choice right back gets a serious injury during the season, leaving you no option but to promote your reserve. Surprisingly he enjoys a great run of form while in the starting 11, remaining solid at the back and providing assists from the right flank. Naturally youre delighted that you didn't have to waste any of your transfer budget on bringing in a player just to cover the injury. Thus arrives the contract request from the agent. He thinks his client is deserving of a new contract following his recent run of good form in the first team. Reasonable enough, you think as you enter into negotiations. Oh look, he only wants a mere £70,000 a week. Of course Id be willing to part with half my remaining weekly wage budget to keep your 20-year-old happy at the club, said no manager ever. Im afraid ten good games do not earn you a new bumper contract in my book. Persistent requests from the agent and the unhappiness of the player when you reject them only serve to heighten the frustrations.
